L Ile Bizard Sainte Genevieve, Montreal - August 2026 Real Estate Report

L'Ile Bizard-Sainte-Genevieve Real Estate: What Your Neighbours Aren't Telling You

The Vibe Right Now

If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs on the island lately, here's the honest read: the market is taking a breather on the house side, while condos are quietly punching above their weight. These two property types are telling very different stories right now, and which one you own matters a lot for what you do next.

Houses: Still Commanding Real Money, But Watch the Trend

Let's start with the good news. When a house actually sells here, it sells for serious coin. The average sale price is sitting at $951,667 - and that's actually slightly ahead of what houses are fetching in Laval-Sur-Le-Lac ($866,400). For a neighbourhood that doesn't always get the headlines, that's a strong number.

But here's the part we need to talk about honestly. The predicted market value for houses is $785,655, and it's drifting down from the 3-month moving average of $791,016. Recent property value change is sitting at -2.31%. On the neighbourhood growth leaderboard, houses in L'Ile Bizard-Sainte-Genevieve rank 24 out of 27 in Montreal. That puts us near the bottom of the pack for growth momentum right now.

• Average HonestDoor Price (Houses): $802,365 - up 2.14% from last period
• Average sale price: $951,667
• Price per square foot: $468
• Predicted market value: $785,655
• 3-month moving average: $791,016
• Recent value change: -2.31%
• Growth rank: 24 out of 27 in Montreal
• Price rank: 8 out of 16 in Montreal - above average
• Rental estimate: $3,491/month
• Rental yield: 5.14% - strong
• Properties sold last month: 3

The rental story is genuinely good though. A 5.14% rental yield is strong by Montreal standards. If you're holding a house here as an investment, the income side of the equation is working in your favour even while values cool off.

Condos: The Quiet Overachiever

This is where it gets interesting. Condo owners in L'Ile Bizard-Sainte-Genevieve should feel pretty good right now. On the growth leaderboard, our condos rank 4 out of 20 comparable Montreal neighbourhoods. That's a top-performer position - and most people on the island have no idea.

Yes, the predicted value of $360,658 is nudging slightly below the 3-month average of $361,221, and the recent change is essentially flat at -0.07%. But the growth rank tells you this neighbourhood is holding its own against most of the city when it comes to condos. Nearby Pierrefonds-Roxboro condos are actually predicted higher at $393,711, so there's room to watch that gap.

• Average HonestDoor Price (Condos): $362,133 - up 0.41% from last period
• Predicted market value: $360,658
• 3-month moving average: $361,221
• Recent value change: -0.07%
• Growth rank: 4 out of 20 in Montreal - top performer
• Rental estimate: $1,885/month
• Rental yield: 4.09% - moderate
• Airbnb estimate: $94/night
• Airbnb rank in Montreal: 17

The Secret Sauce: Why Your HonestDoor Price Matters More Than Your Tax Bill

Here's something worth knowing. The city's property assessment is a snapshot taken in the past - sometimes years ago. It doesn't know what happened to the market last quarter, let alone last month. The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time using actual sales data and current market signals. It's the difference between checking yesterday's weather and looking out the window right now.

For house owners here, the HonestDoor Price of $802,365 is your real-world check. If your city assessment is significantly higher than that, you may be paying more in taxes than the current market justifies - and that's worth a conversation with a professional. If it's lower, you have a clearer picture of the equity you're actually sitting on.

For condo owners, the HonestDoor Price of $362,133 reflects a market that's holding steady while ranking near the top of Montreal for growth. That's useful information whether you're refinancing, selling, or just keeping score.

So What Does This Mean If You're Thinking About Selling This Summer?

If you own a house and you're on the fence about selling, the honest answer is: don't wait for the market to come back to you. With a growth rank of 24 out of 27 and values trending slightly down, the window of peak pricing may already be behind us for now. Three houses sold last month - that's a thin market. Buyers have options. If your number works today, it's worth having the conversation now rather than hoping for a rebound that the data isn't currently promising.

If you own a condo, you're in a better spot. A top-4 growth rank in Montreal means you have a real story to tell buyers. The market isn't on fire, but it's stable and relatively competitive. Summer is a reasonable time to list if your life circumstances line up.

Either way - house or condo - pull your HonestDoor Price before you do anything else. It's the most current number you'll find, and in a market that's moving, current is everything.
