2026 Snapshot · Jan–Sep · resale

Based on MLS® System data owned by the Newfoundland and Labrador Association of REALTORS® covering the period Jan 1, 2026 through Sep 30, 2026.
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. 7 months or more favours buyers. Gander Loop is in buyer's-market territory. Listing counts are current as of October 12, 2026.
These arrows compare this year to the same period last year using the exact same calendar window, so the comparison is fair.

How to read price per square foot
It levels out size. A large home and a small home can be compared on the same footing, which a median price alone cannot do.
It counts finished floor area only. Land, water frontage, garages and unfinished basements are in the price but not the square footage, so acreage and waterfront homes read high.
It is not a pricing formula. Smaller homes sell for more per square foot than larger ones. Use it to compare communities, then ask for a proper evaluation.
Year-to-date figures for each community we serve, for context on how Gander Loop compares. Smaller communities trade only a handful of homes a year, so their numbers swing much more than Gander's — read them as direction, not precision.
Sales by Price Range.
How many homes sold in each price bracket, and how that mix compares to the year before.
Twelve months of sales rather than one, because a single month split five ways would be too few sales in each band to mean anything. Watch the share column: a band growing year over year is where demand is moving.
New builds, counted separately.
Every other number on this page is a resale. New construction — homes sold within a year of being built, or listed as new, under construction or to be built — is shown here on its own (January–September 2026), so the two markets never blur into one average.
Only 2 new-build sales this year — read these as examples, not a market rate.
What Kind of Homes Are Selling.
The homes that changed hands over the last twelve months, cut three ways — by property type, by style of house, and by bedroom count.
| Property Type | Sales | Share | Median Price | Median Beds | Typical Size | $ / Sq Ft · Median | Avg Days on Market |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single-Family | 34 | 100% | $127,500 | 3 | 1,622 sq ft | $7623 sales | 87.6 |
Trailing 12 months · 34 sales · 2 in groups too small to report · typical size and $/sq ft use only the sales that recorded a floor area
By Home Style
Most of what trades here is detached single-family, so the style of house is the split that actually separates one seller's market from another's.
| Home Style | Sales | Share | Median Price | Median Beds | Typical Size | $ / Sq Ft · Median | Avg Days on Market |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bungalow | 25 | 78% | $138,000 | 3 | 1,850 sq ft | $7617 sales | 96.4 |
| 2-Storey | 7 | 22% | $100,000 | 3 | 1,700 sq ft | $96Limited · 7 sales | 76.6 |
Trailing 12 months · 32 sales · 5 more had no home style recorded · 1 in groups too small to report · typical size and $/sq ft use only the sales that recorded a floor area
By Bedroom Count
| Bedrooms | Sales | Share | Median Price | Typical Size | $ / Sq Ft · Median | Avg Days on Market |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3 Bedroom | 16 | 46% | $119,750 | 1,622 sq ft | $4811 sales | 111.6 |
| 4 Bedroom | 10 | 29% | $170,000 | 2,200 sq ft | $70Limited · 9 sales | 53.5 |

Trailing 12 months · 35 sales · 2 more had no bedrooms recorded · 1 in groups too small to report · typical size and $/sq ft use only the sales that recorded a floor area
Median price is used here rather than average so one unusually expensive sale does not distort a small category. Categories with fewer than five sales in the past year are left out entirely — in a smaller community that can mean only a row or two appears.

Days on Market and
Sale Price.
In the last 24 months (Gander Loop data), homes that sold in the first four weeks closed at an average of 95.2% of asking, across 19 sales. Homes that took 13 weeks or more closed at an average of 84.8%, across 34 sales.
The gap is 10.4 percentage points between the two sale-to-list ratios, or about $42,000 on a $400,000 home. This compares two different groups of homes. They differ in condition, type, location and starting price, so the gap is not a loss to any one seller.
Each figure is a percentage of the asking price, so the gap is stated in percentage points. Homes that took 13 weeks or more sold at an average of 84.8% of asking, 15.2 percentage points under asking.

Homes that sold in the first four weeks averaged 95.2% of asking. Homes that took 13 weeks or more averaged 84.8%. On a $400,000 home that gap is about $42,000. These are different homes, so this describes a pattern in the data, not what any one sale would have done.
Homes that took 13 weeks or more closed at an average of 84.8% of asking, 15.2 percentage points under asking. Long-listed homes are where buyers often have the most room to negotiate. Every home is different, so check its own recent sales.

How many homes have sold in Gander Loop this year?

Where do the Gander Loop market statistics come from?
Every figure on this page is computed from the Newfoundland and Labrador Association of REALTORS® MLS® System (residential sales), refreshed daily by Royal LePage Turner Realty. Recent months keep filling in as sold notices are processed, so the latest month is always shown as 'reported so far'.
- Average Sale Price
- The average price buyers paid for homes. This includes all residential property types. For a more specific comparison, consider filtering by property type.
- Median vs. Average
- The median is the middle sale — half sold for more, half for less — and it shrugs off one unusually expensive home. The average adds every sale and divides, so a single high sale in a small community can pull it up sharply. In small markets, trust the median.
- Sale-to-List Ratio
- Measures how close homes sell to their asking price. 100% means sellers get exactly what they ask. Above 100% suggests multiple offers. Below 95% means buyers have negotiating room.
- Days on Market
- How long the typical home sits before selling. Under 30 days is fast-moving. Over 90 days is slower. This helps set realistic expectations for listing or offer timing.
- Sold at 100%+ Asking
- Homes that sold at or above the listed price. A high number here means multiple-offer situations are common.
- Months of Supply
- How long it would take to sell every home currently listed at the recent pace of sales — active listings divided by average monthly sales over the last 12 months. Under 5 months is a seller's market, 5–7 balanced, 7 or more a buyer's market. In small communities a couple of listings can swing it, so the verdict is withheld below 15 sales a year.
- Sales-to-New-Listings Ratio
- Homes sold in a month as a share of homes newly listed that month — the CREA measure of whether demand is keeping up with fresh supply. Under 40% favours buyers, over 60% favours sellers. Shown as a rolling three-month figure because a single month swings on a handful of sales.
- New Construction vs. Resale
- Every headline figure here is a resale. A sale counts as new construction when the home sold within a year of being built, or was listed as new, under construction or to be built; those sales are shown on their own in the What's Selling section so a new-build premium never inflates the resale median.
- Price per Square Foot
- The sold price divided by the home's finished floor area, shown as the median across recent resale homes. It lets you compare communities and styles of house without size getting in the way. Only about half of listings record a floor area, so every figure says how many sales it is built on; 5 to 9 sales is flagged as limited, and under 5 is not shown. Land, waterfront and garages are in the price but not the square footage.
