What sold in Lake Bonavista this summer?
The RealtyOS sales extract records 31 sold listings in Lake Bonavista from June 1 through August 31, 2026. The mix includes 22 detached sales, 9 apartment sales. These are community transactions across all agents, not Don’s personal sales.
| Property type | Sales | Median sale price | Median days on market |
|---|---|---|---|
| Detached | 22 | $955,000 | 13 days |
| Apartment | 9 | $325,000 | 22 days |
The table groups the available records by property subtype. Medians are shown only for groups with at least five sales. A small group is best reviewed sale by sale; a mixed community median is not a price estimate for an individual home.
How to use the Lake Bonavista comparisons.
For detached homes, compare the lot and the house separately. Road exposure, usable yard, garage, layout, renovation quality and major systems can explain a price difference even when the square footage is close.
Detached was the largest subtype group in this extract, with 22 of the 31 sales. If your property is a different type, use its own comparison group rather than the most common home in the neighbourhood.
Ask which sales match your size, build era, condition and location within the community. Review the active homes buyers could choose today as a separate step. A sale from the summer establishes historical context; the latest competition helps position a listing now.
Prepare the details that support your price.
Collect dates and records for roof, furnace, windows and major renovations. Review the outdoor presentation and identify any maintenance a buyer is likely to ask about.
Make a short property file with improvement dates, warranties, included items and the work still needed. List the features a buyer can verify in person. Don can then decide how the photos, measurements and written description should present those strengths.
Before committing to a large renovation, compare its cost and timing with the competing homes. Cleaning, maintenance and a clearer layout may be more useful than choosing new finishes for a buyer whose preferences you do not know.
What does it cost to sell a home in Lake Bonavista?
Don’s fee is 2% combined commission: 1% for the listing brokerage and 1% for the buyer’s brokerage, plus GST. That includes pricing advice, professional photography, MLS® exposure, showing coordination and negotiation through the sale.
For a worked example at $850,000, the 2% combined commission is $17,000 before GST. The 7%/3% comparison is $29,500, leaving $12,500 more before GST at the same sale price. This round-number example is not a valuation of your home.
Add the mortgage payout, lender charges, legal work and moving expenses to estimate the equity available for your next property. Use the commission calculator or full selling-cost worksheet with your own numbers.

Source: RealtyOS canonical MLS database, extracted September 26, 2026. Calgary records were filtered to sold status and an off-market date from June 1 through August 31, 2026, then deduplicated by MLS number using the latest update. Property-subtype groups use the recorded MLS classifications.
Counts are sold listing records; repeat listings of the same address can be separate transactions. Missing or non-positive prices are excluded from price medians. The off-market date can differ from a closing date. This is a defined RealtyOS research sample, not an official CREB community total. The complete period makes the communities comparable without presenting an unfinished September as a full month.
