Month-by-month comparison across all key metrics for Holyrood.
Seasonal patterns in the market. In St. John's, the busiest months are typically April–September (spring/summer listing season). Winter months are slower. Knowing this helps time your listing or purchase.
The Holyrood data tells a clear and consistent story: homes that sell in their first few weeks achieve sale-to-ask ratios at or near 98.7%. By six weeks and beyond, properties that haven't sold are closing at roughly 89.0% of their last asking price.
That's a difference of about 9.7 percentage points. On a $400,000 home, that's approximately $39,000 left on the table.
Overpricing doesn't delay the sale — it actively reduces what you walk away with. Homes that sit accumulate days on market, which signals to buyers that something is wrong and invites lower offers.
The right price from day one isn't pessimism — it's the strategy that produces the highest final return. This is what the Holyrood data shows, updated every month.
