Thinking about the move
Your house there. What it buys here.
You know what your own home is worth better than any index does. Put the number in and I’ll show you what it buys in Greater Saint John today, from homes actually on the market this hour. For reference, a three bedroom house with two or more bathrooms here is asking a median of $459,000 as of August 29, 2026.
There are 387 homes on the market across Greater Saint John right now, from $39,900 upward. Put a number in above to see what yours reaches.
The part the price doesn’t tell you
People move here for the number and stay for the rest of it. But there are things worth knowing before you commit, and I’d rather you heard them from me than found them out in February.
Check the tax before you offer
New Brunswick bills property tax annually and it varies more between neighbouring streets than people expect. The figure attached to a listing is the seller’s, and it resets after a sale, which catches people moving here. You can look up any address before you write an offer. Search the records.
Closing costs are their own line
Land transfer tax, legal fees and adjustments land on top of the purchase price, and they catch people arriving from other provinces where the rules differ. Estimate yours.
Pick the area before the house
Uptown, the west side, Millidgeville and the Kennebecasis Valley are genuinely different places to live, and the commute between them is short enough that you can afford to be picky. Read the guides.
Moving a province is a big thing to do on a hunch.
I have talked plenty of people through this, including the ones who decided against it. Call and ask me anything, whether you’re six weeks out or just curious.
