The total number of homes that closed during this period. More sales generally indicate a healthier, more active market.
These arrows compare this year to the same period last year. The comparison uses the exact same calendar window (e.g., Jan 1 – May 30 both years) so the comparison is fair.
Months of supply is how long it would take to sell every home currently for sale at the recent pace of sales. Under 5 months is a seller's market — tight supply, firm prices. Seven months or more favours buyers. Paradise is in seller's-market territory.

Month-by-month comparison across all key metrics for Paradise.
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 Paradise data tells a clear and consistent story: homes that sell in their first few weeks achieve sale-to-ask ratios at or near 105.9%. By six weeks and beyond, properties that haven't sold are closing at roughly 97.7% of their last asking price.
That's a difference of about 8.2 percentage points. On a $400,000 home, that's approximately $33,000 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 Paradise data shows, updated every month.
