If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs in Quartier 5-2, here's what's actually happening. The market is sending two very different signals depending on what you own - and knowing which one applies to you could be worth real money this summer.
For those of us who own houses here, the news is pretty solid. The average HonestDoor Price sits at $383,941, and the predicted value is actually nudging up to $384,345 - above the 3-month moving average of $381,806. That upward trend matters. It means the momentum is with house owners right now, not against them.
That growth rank is worth pausing on. On the neighbourhood leaderboard for Quebec, houses in Quartier 5-2 sit in the top third. We are not leading the pack, but we are well ahead of the middle. For a house owner thinking about timing a sale, that ranking says the market still has respect for this area.
Condos are a different conversation. The average HonestDoor Price is $249,064, but it has slipped 3.08% from the previous period. The predicted value of $256,982 is actually sitting below the 3-month moving average of $259,269 - meaning the trend is pointing down, not up. On the neighbourhood leaderboard, condo growth here ranks 28 out of 31 in Quebec. That puts us near the bottom of the pack right now.
That does not mean panic. It means condo owners need to be sharp about pricing and timing - not just hoping the market catches up on its own.
Here is the thing about your city assessment: it is a snapshot from the past. It gets updated on a schedule that has nothing to do with what buyers are actually paying on your street today. The HonestDoor Price is a real-time check on what your property is worth right now - not what a government office decided it was worth 18 months ago.
For house owners in Quartier 5-2, that gap could be working in your favour. If your assessment is lagging behind the current predicted value of $384,345, you may be sitting on more equity than your last tax bill suggested. For condo owners, the reverse risk is real - your assessment might be higher than where the market is actually trading today.
Either way, checking your HonestDoor Price costs you nothing and takes two minutes. Waiting for the next assessment cycle to find out where you stand is the expensive option.
If you own a house in Quartier 5-2 and you have been on the fence about selling, the data is nudging you toward action. Values are trending up, the rental yield of 5.85% tells buyers this is a property that works as an investment, and a top-third growth ranking gives you a real talking point. Nearby neighbourhoods like Vieux-Moulin ($444,300) and Chutes-Montmorency ($417,481) are priced higher, which means buyers who get priced out there will be looking at us next.
If you own a condo, summer 2025 calls for a sharper strategy. The market is taking a breather here - a -1.31% recent change and a bottom-tier growth rank means you are not in the driver's seat on price. That does not mean you cannot sell well. It means you need accurate, current pricing from day one. Overpricing a condo in this environment is the fastest way to sit on the market and watch your leverage disappear.
Bottom line: house owners have a window right now. Condo owners need to be precise. Either way, your HonestDoor Price is the number to start with - not the one on your last assessment notice.
