We are sitting at an average HonestDoor Price of $423,985 - down a very slim 0.28% from the previous period. That is not a crash. That is the market taking a breather. For us here in Appolo-Desroyers, values are not in freefall - they are just pausing.

The predicted market value for houses comes in at $425,175, which is nudging just below the 3-month moving average of $426,226. Again, we are talking about a difference of roughly $1,000. This is not a red flag - it is a signal to pay attention.

The Neighbourhood Leaderboard

Here is a stat worth knowing. For growth, Appolo-Desroyers ranks 15 out of 36 comparable neighbourhoods in Gatineau. That puts us in the above-average half of the city. We are not leading the pack, but we are not at the back either. Middle of the leaderboard with room to climb.

Now look at our neighbours for context. Every nearby area is priced higher than us right now.

• Paroisse St-Rene (Bureau De Poste): HonestDoor Price $503,433 - Rental $2,421/month
• Paroisse St-Richard-Magnus Ouest: HonestDoor Price $475,955 - Rental $2,375/month
• Town Side Le Moulin: HonestDoor Price $522,315 - Rental $2,504/month

That gap between us and Town Side Le Moulin is nearly $100,000. For buyers priced out of those streets, Appolo-Desroyers is a real option. That kind of relative value keeps demand alive here.

The Secret Sauce - Why Your HonestDoor Price Matters More Than Your Tax Assessment

Here is the thing about your city assessment. It is a snapshot from the past. It gets updated on a fixed schedule, which means it can be months - sometimes over a year - behind what your home is actually worth today.

Your HonestDoor Price is a real-world check. It pulls in current market signals and gives you a number that reflects what a buyer would actually pay right now - not what the city decided your home was worth back when they last ran the numbers. With values shifting, even slightly, that difference matters. A stale assessment could mean you are leaving money on the table or mispricing your expectations entirely.

Check your HonestDoor Price now. Do not wait for the next assessment cycle to tell you something the market already knows.

The "So What?" - Thinking About Selling This Summer?

If you are considering listing this summer, here is the straight talk. The market is not surging, but it is not soft either. A 5.80% rental yield tells us that buyers - especially investors - still see real value in Appolo-Desroyers. That is a strong number. It means your home competes well as an income property, which widens your buyer pool.

You are also priced below every nearby neighbourhood. That is actually a selling advantage. Buyers who want to be close to Paroisse St-Rene or Town Side Le Moulin but cannot stretch to those prices will look here first.

The window this summer is real - but pricing it right from day one is everything. Use your HonestDoor Price as your starting point, not a number from last year's tax bill.
