We are noticing buyers having an upper hand in a lot of transactions currently. Days on market seem to stand out the most, with a 21.3% increase from last year. Homes in Corner Brook currently take about 70 days to sell.<\/p>\n<p>January and February tend to be the slower months, which means we still have a couple more months of active buyers and sellers trying to put a deal together. Last year&#8217;s fall months saw a surplus of listings, with the number of active listings comparing to the summer months of 2016.<\/p>\n<h1>Pasadena<\/h1>\n<figure id=\"attachment_120\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-120\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.teambishopnl.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Pasadena.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-120 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.teambishopnl.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Pasadena.jpg\" alt=\"Pasadena Summer 2018 Market Update\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.teambishopnl.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Pasadena.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.teambishopnl.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Pasadena-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.teambishopnl.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Pasadena-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-120\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pasadena Summer 2018 Market Update Charts<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>New Listings: <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">-11.4%<\/span><br \/>\nSales: <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">-1.4%<\/span><br \/>\nDays to Sell: <span style=\"color: #339966;\">21.8%<\/span><br \/>\nAverage Sale Price: <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">-9.3%<\/span><br \/>\n<em>* compared to Summer 2017<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The number of new listings has decreased 11.4% over the same time last year but have increased over the last three years while the number of sales has decreased by 1.4%.

It now takes more than twice as long to sell a home than just two years ago, which is currently 145 days.<\/p>\n<p>The average sale price of homes in Pasadena, interestingly, have stayed roughly the same, even gone up a bit in the last three years, although it is down 9.3% over last year to $244,072. This can be contrinbuted to newer homes being sold in newer areas of town and buyers looking outside Corner Brook for homes with bigger yards in the $200,000 to $300,000 price range. Pasadena currently has the highest average home price between the three areas but also the highest number of days to sell.<\/p>\n<h1>Deer Lake<\/h1>\n<figure id=\"attachment_119\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-119\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.teambishopnl.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Deer-Lake.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-119 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.teambishopnl.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Deer-Lake.jpg\" alt=\"Deer Lake Summer 2018 Market Update\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.teambishopnl.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Deer-Lake.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.teambishopnl.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Deer-Lake-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.teambishopnl.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/Deer-Lake-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-119\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Deer Lake Summer 2018 Market Update Charts<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>New Listings: <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">-4.2%<\/span><br \/>\nSales: <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">-17.5%<\/span><br \/>\nDays to Sell: <span style=\"color: #339966;\">17.9%<\/span><br \/>\nAverage Sale Price: <span style=\"color: #339966;\">7.3%<\/span><br \/>\n* compared to Summer 2017<\/p>\n<p>The number of new listings has decreased 11.4% over the same time last year but have increased over the last three years while the number of sales has decreased by 1.4%.
