Lac-Kenogami, Saguenay - July 2026 Real Estate Report

Lac-Kenogami Real Talk: Your Home Is Worth More Than the City Thinks

The Vibe Right Now

If you own property in Lac-Kenogami, here is the honest picture. The market is sending two different signals depending on what you own - and knowing which one applies to you could change what you do next.

Houses: Holding Steady, But Watch the Trend

The average HonestDoor Price for a house in Lac-Kenogami sits at $372,745 - up 1.66% from the previous period. That is the good news. The more recent predicted value of $368,847 is nudging slightly below the 3-month moving average of $369,143, which tells us the momentum has softened a touch. We are not in freefall - think of it as the market catching its breath after a run.

• Average HonestDoor Price: $372,745 (up 1.66%)
• Predicted market value: $368,847
• 3-month moving average: $369,143
• Recent value change: -0.94%
• Estimated monthly rent: $1,888
• Rental yield: 5.85% - that is a strong return
• Airbnb estimate: $95 per night - ranked No. 2 in all of Saguenay
• Neighbourhood growth leaderboard: 6 out of 6 in Saguenay

That last number deserves a straight answer. Ranking 6 out of 6 for growth among comparable Saguenay neighbourhoods means houses here are not leading the pack right now. But here is the flip side - our houses still price out well above nearby Jonquiere ($299,505 predicted value). We are not cheap, and that matters when you are selling.

Condos: A Different Story - And a Better One

Condo owners, pay attention. The average HonestDoor Price dropped 3.45% to $261,545, but the predicted value of $270,891 is actually climbing above the 3-month moving average of $264,847. That gap - between a recent dip and a rising predicted value - suggests the condo market here may be finding its footing again.

• Average HonestDoor Price: $261,545 (down 3.45%)
• Predicted market value: $270,891
• 3-month moving average: $264,847
• Recent value change: +4.46%
• Estimated monthly rent: $1,433
• Rental yield: 4.19% - moderate but real income
• Airbnb estimate: $69 per night - ranked 6 in Saguenay
• Neighbourhood growth leaderboard: 4 out of 6 in Saguenay

Condos rank 4 out of 6 for growth - below average, but not at the bottom. And compared to nearby Shipshaw ($551,175) and Laterriere ($375,152), our condos are priced well under the competition. For a buyer, that looks like value. For a seller, that is your pitch.

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. The city looks at sale data from a window that can be 12 to 24 months old, then locks that number in until the next cycle. A lot has happened since then.

The HonestDoor Price updates in real time. It pulls from current market activity, not last year's numbers. Right now, house owners in Lac-Kenogami are sitting at a HonestDoor Price of $372,745. If your tax assessment is lower than that - and for many of us it probably is - you are leaving real money on the table when you price your home, negotiate a sale, or even just understand your own net worth.

Check your HonestDoor Price before you do anything else. It is the real-world check that your assessment simply cannot give you.

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

If you own a house and are thinking about listing this summer, the window is real but it is not wide open forever. Values are still above nearby Jonquiere, and that Airbnb ranking of No. 2 in Saguenay tells buyers there is income potential here - use that in your listing conversation.

If you own a condo, the 4.46% recent value increase is a signal worth acting on. Predicted values are climbing back up. Getting ahead of that curve - listing before the market fully reprices - could work in your favour.

For both property types, the play is the same. Do not guess at your price based on what your neighbour sold for two years ago. Pull your HonestDoor Price today, compare it to your assessment, and have an honest conversation about what your property is actually worth in this market - not the last one.

That is how we make smart moves in Lac-Kenogami.
