If you live in Quartier 5-1 and you own a house, the market is taking a breather. If you own a condo, things are actually moving in the right direction. Same neighbourhood, two completely different situations - and knowing which one applies to you matters a lot heading into summer.
Houses here are holding their ground. Sales prices are sitting at $565,000 on average, with price per square foot around $903. Only 2 homes sold recently, which is a thin sample - so take the averages with a grain of salt.
The HonestDoor predicted value for houses sits at $367,207, nudging up from a 3-month average of $365,845. That 0.09% recent change is basically flat. Here is the honest part though: on the neighbourhood leaderboard, houses in Quartier 5-1 rank 27 out of 31 for growth in Quebec. That puts us near the bottom of the pack. Not a crisis, but not a reason to pop champagne either.
That rental yield of 5.88% is genuinely good news for anyone holding a house here as an investment. Even if price growth is slow, your property is pulling real income weight.
Condos in Quartier 5-1 are telling a better story. The HonestDoor predicted value is $229,243, up from a 3-month average of $226,590. The average HonestDoor Price across condos is $235,314 - a 2.65% increase from the previous period. That kind of consistent upward tick is exactly what you want to see.
On the neighbourhood leaderboard, condos rank 9 out of 31 in Quebec for growth. That puts us in the top third. Compare that to houses at 27 out of 31, and you can see why condo owners here have more reason to feel good right now.
For context, nearby Quartier 4-3 condos are predicted at $223,565 and Quartier 5-2 sits at $249,064. We are right in the middle of that range, which means Quartier 5-1 condos are priced competitively without being the cheapest option on the block.
Here is the thing about government assessments - they are a snapshot from the past. By the time that number lands in your mailbox, the market has already moved. The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time, pulling from actual sales and current market signals. For condo owners in Quartier 5-1, that 2.65% increase would not show up on a static assessment for months, maybe longer. That gap between what the city thinks your place is worth and what a buyer would actually pay today - that is money left on the table if you are not paying attention.
Check your HonestDoor Price now. Do not wait for a piece of paper to tell you what your home is worth in a market that changes every week.
For house sellers, be realistic. With a growth rank of 27 out of 31, this is not a market where you can overprice and wait. Buyers have options. Price sharp, lean into that strong rental yield story if you are marketing to investors, and move with purpose. The flat price trend means sitting on the market costs you.
For condo sellers, your timing is better. A 2.65% price increase and a top-third growth ranking give you a real story to tell. Buyers looking at nearby Quartier 4-2 - where prices average $319,733 - may find Quartier 5-1 condos at $235,314 look like a smart entry point. Use that comparison. It works in your favour.
Bottom line: condos have momentum, houses need a smart strategy. Either way, knowing your real number - not the city's old number - is where you start.
