If you've been watching the "For Sale" signs in Quartier 5-4, here's the honest read: the market is taking a breather. Values haven't fallen off a cliff, but they're not charging uphill either. For us here, that means timing and pricing matter more than ever.
The average HonestDoor Price for a house in Quartier 5-4 sits at $394,750 - down a slim 0.21% from last period. The 3-month moving average is $394,422, and the predicted value is nudging just above that at $395,568. So we're basically flat. Not crashing, not surging.
The bigger story? On the neighbourhood growth leaderboard, houses here rank 27 out of 29 comparable neighbourhoods in Quebec. That's near the bottom. It doesn't mean your house is worth less than you think - it means the growth engine is idling compared to other parts of the city.
The silver lining is the rental math. If you're an investor or thinking about holding, the rental yield on houses is 5.83%. That's a strong return. Estimated rent runs about $2,001 to $2,008 per month. Airbnb potential adds roughly $99 per night, and Quartier 5-4 ranks 27th in Quebec for short-term rental performance - mid-pack, but real income.
Compare that to nearby Maizerets, where houses average $528,310. That's a $133,000 gap. Chutes-Montmorency sits at $417,481 and Vieux-Moulin at $444,300. Quartier 5-4 is the more affordable entry point in this pocket of Quebec - which is either a deal or a signal, depending on how you look at it.
Condos are feeling a sharper pinch. The average HonestDoor Price is $226,320, down 1.22% from last period. The predicted value is $229,105, but that's actually lower than the 3-month moving average of $230,773. In plain terms, the trend line for condos is pointing down right now.
On the leaderboard, condos rank 26 out of 31 comparable neighbourhoods in Quebec. Again, bottom tier for growth. If you own a condo here and have been assuming your city assessment tells the full story, it probably doesn't.
Rental yield on condos comes in at 4.29% - moderate, not spectacular. Rent averages $1,217 to $1,232 per month. Airbnb potential is about $60 per night, ranking 23rd in Quebec for short-term rental income.
Nearby, Chutes-Montmorency condos average $319,463 and Maizerets sits at $285,725. Vieux-Moulin is actually cheaper at $173,721. So for condos, Quartier 5-4 lands in the middle of the pack on price - but trails on growth.
Here's the thing about city assessments - they're snapshots from the past. Quebec reassesses on a cycle, which means your official number could be 12 to 24 months behind what the market is actually doing right now. In a flat or slightly declining market like this one, that gap can cost you real money if you're making decisions based on stale data.
The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time using current sales, market signals, and comparable properties. It's the real-world check on what your home is actually worth today - not what a government formula decided a year ago. If you're a homeowner in Quartier 5-4, pulling your HonestDoor Price right now gives you the most current read before you make any move.
Straight talk: this is not a "list it and watch the offers roll in" market right now. With houses ranking 27 out of 29 for growth and condos at 26 out of 31, Quartier 5-4 is not leading the charge in Quebec this season.
That doesn't mean you shouldn't sell. It means you need to price sharp from day one. Overpricing in a flat market is the fastest way to sit on a listing while buyers scroll past you to Maizerets or Chutes-Montmorency.
If you're a house owner, the rental yield story is your leverage - buyers who see 5.83% returns pay attention. Lead with that. If you own a condo, be honest with yourself about the trend line. A 1.22% dip in one period isn't a disaster, but it's a nudge to move sooner rather than later if selling is on your mind.
Check your HonestDoor Price, compare it to what's actually sold nearby, and go in with clear eyes. That's the move this summer.
