If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs in Quartier 5-1, here's what's actually happening. The market is taking a breather. Not crashing, not booming - just catching its breath. The average HonestDoor Price sits at $580,556, down a modest 1.60% from last period. That's not a alarm bell, but it's worth paying attention to before you decide to list.
On the sales side, 2 houses moved recently at an average sale price of $565,000. Volume is steady, and price per square foot is holding at $903. That's a real number - not a guess.
We've got a split personality market here, and knowing which side you're on matters a lot.
Houses: The predicted market value for houses lands at $368,033, just barely off the 3-month moving average of $368,066. That's essentially flat - no dramatic swings. The rental picture is genuinely strong. Estimated rent comes in at $1,919 per month with a rental yield of 5.88%. For anyone holding a house here as an investment, that yield is doing real work. On the neighbourhood leaderboard, house growth ranks 16 out of 32 comparable neighbourhoods in Quebec - that puts us in above-average territory. Not leading the pack, but solidly in the top half.
Condos: This is where we need to be honest with each other. Condo values have dropped 8.28% recently, and the predicted value of $215,829 is sitting below the 3-month moving average of $226,795. That gap tells you the direction of travel. On the leaderboard, condo growth ranks dead last - 30 out of 30 comparable neighbourhoods in Quebec. Nearby, Quartier 4-3 condos are predicted at $220,577 and Quartier 5-2 at $243,536 - both ahead of us right now. If you own a condo here, this is not the moment to sit back and wait.
Here's the thing about your city assessment: it's a snapshot from the past. It doesn't know what happened in the market last month, last quarter, or even last year in real time. Your HonestDoor Price is updated continuously using actual sales data, current market signals, and real comparable properties. It's the real-world check against a number the city calculated months or years ago.
Right now in Quartier 5-1, the average HonestDoor Price of $580,556 is the number that reflects what a buyer would actually put on the table today - not what a government office decided your home was worth during a different market cycle. If you're making any decision about selling, refinancing, or even just understanding your net worth, start with the HonestDoor Price. It's the only number that's keeping up with the market in real time.
And with Quartier 5-1 holding an Airbnb rank of 2 in Lac-Beauport, with an estimated $141 per night and a rental estimate of $2,850 per month, there's genuine income potential baked into these properties that a static assessment will never capture.
For house owners, the case for listing this summer is reasonable. Prices are stable, the rental yield story gives buyers a compelling reason to pay up, and you're priced higher than every nearby neighbourhood - Quartier 4-3 at $429,248, Quartier 5-2 at $380,938, and Quartier 4-2 at $366,665 are all cheaper. That premium positioning means buyers who choose Quartier 5-1 are choosing it on purpose. Use that.
For condo owners, the math is more urgent. An 8.28% drop and a last-place growth rank are not numbers to wait out hoping for a rebound. If you've been on the fence, summer foot traffic and motivated buyers are your best window. Waiting for the market to turn around while sitting at the bottom of the leaderboard is a risky bet.
Bottom line: check your HonestDoor Price today, not your last assessment notice. The market is moving - and in Quartier 5-1 right now, knowing your real number is the difference between pricing to sell and pricing to sit.
