April was clearest for houses: three sales, a median around $850k, an average around $1M, and a median 12 days on market. Condo and townhouse owners should use longer-term context, not one tiny snapshot.
April snapshot
April had useful signals. It did not have enough sales to do all the heavy lifting.
This is the kind of month where the headline can look confident while the sample size quietly clears its throat.
What April actually showed
There were four Old North residential sales in April: three houses, one condo, and no townhouses. That is a very small pile of evidence in a neighbourhood where condition, location, updates, parking, and lot characteristics can move the number fast.
The house results are the useful part of April. The median house sale rounded to $850k, the average rounded to $1M, homes had a median 12 days on market, and the sale-to-list figure was 96%. For house sellers, that points to active buyers, not a blank cheque.
Condos and townhouses need a steadier hand. April had just one condo sale and no townhouse sales, so the better condo benchmark is the trailing 12 months: 10 sales with a median around $500k. Townhouses are still too thin to summarize confidently, with only one sale over the past year.
By property type
Do not lump every property type together
The April house numbers are worth a look. Condos and townhouses need more history before they can say much.
Houses
April median sale price
$850kThree Old North houses sold in April. That shows buyer activity, not a plug-and-play pricing formula.
Condos
Trailing 12-month median
$500kApril had one condo sale. The 12-month picture is more useful than hanging expectations on a single April transaction.
Townhouses
April sales
0No townhouses sold in April, and only one sold over the past year. That is too thin for a clean pricing read.
April 2026 by property type
The house count is the main April number to watch. The condo and townhouse categories need a wider window before they carry much weight.
| Type | April sales | Median | Average | Median DOM | Sale-to-list | Useful read |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| All residential | 4 | $650k | $825k | Not enough | Not enough | Small month overall |
| Houses | 3 | $850k | $1M | 12 days | 96% | Useful, but still property-specific |
| Condos | 1 | One sale | One sale | One sale | One sale | Use the 12-month view |
| Townhouses | 0 | No April sales | No April sales | No April sales | No April sales | Do not price from April |
Prices are rounded for public display. DOM means days on market.
Check the wider window
A small April snapshot works better when it is set beside the past three and 12 months.
| Type | Past 3 months | Past 12 months | More useful benchmark |
|---|---|---|---|
| Houses | 14 sales | 54 sales | 12-month house median: about $675k |
| Condos | 3 sales | 10 sales | 12-month condo median: about $500k |
| Townhouses | 1 sale | 1 sale | Still too thin to summarize confidently |
How homeowners should use this
Treat April as a pulse check. Do not treat it as a complete pricing model.
If you own a house
- Use April as a current signal, not the final number.
- Compare condition, parking, lot, updates, and exact street position before putting too much weight on the median.
- Expect buyers to push back if the list price assumes every Old North house earns the same premium.
If you own a condo or townhouse
- Do not let one small month set expectations.
- Use the 12-month condo picture before treating April as a benchmark.
- For townhouses, widen the comparison because Old North had no April sales and only one sale over the past year.
If you are listing soon
- Lead with the property-specific case, not just the neighbourhood name.
- Show why your house earns its price before buyers start adjusting for condition or location.
- Use the aggregate numbers as opening context, then price from the actual house.
