Month-by-month comparison across all key metrics for North End.
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 North End data tells a clear and consistent story: homes that sell in their first few weeks achieve sale-to-ask ratios at or near 109.0%. By six weeks and beyond, properties that haven't sold are closing at roughly 96.9% of their last asking price.
That's a difference of about 12.1 percentage points. On a $400,000 home, that's approximately $48,000 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 North End data shows, updated every month.
