A median of $348,000 and a mean of $368,000: that is how owners valued their homes in 2021. Owners gave those values at the May 2021 census; they are estimates, and older than today’s prices. No sales are published for towns in Newfoundland and Labrador, Flatrock included, so owners’ values are the measure.
