Cite-Universitaire, Québec - August 2026 Real Estate Report

Cite-Universitaire Is Quietly Outperforming - Here Is What Your Home Is Actually Worth Right Now

The Vibe: What Is Happening on Our Streets

If you own property in Cite-Universitaire and you have not checked your HonestDoor Price lately, you are probably sitting on more than you think. The numbers are moving, and they are moving in the right direction - especially if you own a house.

Here is the split between the two main property types in our neighbourhood right now.

Houses: The Clear Winner

• Average HonestDoor Price: $680,989
• Up 1.32% from the previous period
• Predicted market value: $672,127
• 3-month moving average: $660,109 - and we are trending above it
• Recent value change: up 2.46%
• Average rental estimate: $3,054 per month
• Rental yield: 5.39% - that is a strong return by any measure
• Airbnb estimate: $152 per night - ranked 6th in all of Quebec

That growth rank is worth stopping on. Houses in Cite-Universitaire rank 1 out of 31 comparable neighbourhoods in Quebec for growth. Not top ten. Not top five. Number one. That is not a small thing - that is the neighbourhood leaderboard, and we are at the top of it.

Compare that to our neighbours: Plateau houses are sitting at $499,201, Sillery at $604,866, and Duberger-Les Saules at $415,725. Every single one of them is cheaper than us. If you own a house here, you are holding the most valuable card at the table.

Condos: Solid, But Take a Closer Look

• Average HonestDoor Price: $290,565
• Up 2.12% from the previous period
• Predicted market value: $284,524
• 3-month moving average: $286,718 - current value is slightly below this
• Recent value change: -1.32%
• Average rental estimate: $1,546 per month
• Rental yield: 4.21% - moderate, but still respectable
• Airbnb estimate: $77 per night - ranked 13th in Quebec

Condos here rank 14 out of 31 neighbourhoods in Quebec - above average, but not leading the pack the way our houses are. The short-term predicted value has dipped slightly below the 3-month moving average, so the condo segment is taking a bit of a breather right now. That does not mean panic - it means pay attention. The overall HonestDoor Price is still up 2.12% from the previous period, so the longer trend is still positive.

For context, Sillery condos are averaging $467,985 - significantly higher than our $290,565. If you are a condo buyer looking for relative value in this part of Quebec, Cite-Universitaire still makes a strong case.

The Secret Sauce: Why Your HonestDoor Price Matters More Than Your Tax Assessment Right Now

Here is the honest truth about municipal assessments: they are snapshots from the past. The city evaluates your property on a cycle, which means your official assessment could be reflecting what your home was worth a year or two ago - not what a buyer would pay for it today.

The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time. It pulls from actual market activity, not a government schedule. With house values in Cite-Universitaire up 2.46% recently and sitting at the top of Quebec's neighbourhood growth rankings, the gap between your assessment and your real-world value could be significant. Knowing that number is not just interesting - it is useful. It tells you what you actually have to work with.

Do not wait for the city to catch up to the market. Check your HonestDoor Price now and get the real-world number.

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

If you own a house in Cite-Universitaire and you are thinking about listing this summer, the timing is working in your favour. Ranking first in Quebec for neighbourhood growth is a legitimate selling point - buyers doing their homework will find that number. Your predicted market value of $672,127 is climbing above the 3-month average, which signals upward momentum heading into the warmer months.

For condo owners, the picture is a little more nuanced. The short-term value has softened slightly, but the overall HonestDoor Price is still up on the period. If you are not in a rush, watching the next few months of movement makes sense. If you need to move this summer, you are still in a market where Cite-Universitaire condos hold a strong position compared to most of Quebec.

Either way - house or condo - the first step is the same. Know your number. Your HonestDoor Price is the most current, honest read on what your property is worth right now. Everything else follows from there.
