If you have been watching the "For Sale" signs in Du Filgate lately, here is what is actually happening. The market is taking a breather - but it is not the same story for every property type. Houses and condos are moving in opposite directions, and knowing which side you are on could mean real money in your pocket this summer.
Let us start with the good news. If you own a house in Du Filgate, we are sitting in a strong spot. The average sale price is $600,000, and the predicted market value is $564,665 - trending up from the 3-month moving average of $559,282. That upward momentum matters. It tells us buyers are still willing to pay, and values are not stalling out.
That growth rank is the number to brag about. Out of 8 comparable neighbourhoods in Chateauguay, Du Filgate houses sit at number 1 on the leaderboard. De Robutel, De Salaberry, and De Lang are all priced slightly higher, but we are outpacing them in momentum. Being the most affordable option with the fastest growth is exactly where you want to be as a homeowner.
The rental story is also worth noting. At $2,632 per month and a 5.61% yield, a Du Filgate house is not just a home - it is a legitimate income asset if you ever decide to rent it out.
Here is where we need to be straight with each other. Condo owners in Du Filgate are in a different situation. The predicted market value is $391,325, but that number is sliding - down from the 3-month moving average of $398,004. Values have dipped 2.68% recently, and the growth rank is 8 out of 8 in Chateauguay. That is the bottom of the local leaderboard.
The one upside for condo owners is that Du Filgate still prices above nearby De Robutel ($324,250) and De Salaberry ($388,341). You are not at the bottom of the price stack - just the growth stack. But if you have been thinking about selling, the window to act before values slide further deserves a serious look.
Here is something most homeowners in Du Filgate do not realize. Your city assessment is a snapshot from the past - sometimes 12 to 24 months old by the time it lands in your mailbox. A lot has changed since then. The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time, pulling in actual sales data and market signals as they happen. It is the real-world check against a number the government calculated when the market looked completely different.
For house owners, your HonestDoor Price of $553,062 reflects a market that has been growing at 2.21% recently. Your city assessment almost certainly does not capture that. For condo owners, the reverse is also true - if your assessment was set during a stronger period, your HonestDoor Price is giving you an honest look at where things actually stand today, not where they were 18 months ago.
Knowing your real number - not the government's old number - is the difference between pricing your home right and leaving money on the table or sitting unsold for months.
For house owners in Du Filgate, the timing is genuinely decent. You are ranked first in growth across Chateauguay neighbourhoods, values are ticking up, and buyers looking at De Robutel or De Salaberry will notice your price point is competitive. A well-priced listing this summer has real legs.
For condo owners, the honest advice is this - do not wait and hope the trend reverses on its own. Values are down 2.68% recently and the 3-month average is sliding. If selling is on your radar for the next 6 to 12 months, getting ahead of further softening is worth a serious conversation now. The rental yield of 4.04% is moderate, so holding purely for income is not a slam dunk either.
Either way, pull your HonestDoor Price before you do anything else. It takes 30 seconds and gives you the real number - not the one the city printed last year.
