Saint-Gerard-Des-Laurentides Is Quietly Holding Its Own - Here Is What Your Home Is Actually Worth Right Now
The Vibe: What Is Happening on Our Streets
If you have been keeping an eye on the market in Saint-Gerard-Des-Laurentides, here is the honest read: we are in steady, quiet growth territory. Not a frenzy, not a freefall. Just a neighbourhood that keeps showing up.
Houses are leading the charge. The average HonestDoor Price sits at $433,003, up 0.53% from the previous period. The predicted value is $430,713, and that number is climbing - it is already above the 3-month moving average of $427,586. That upward trend matters. It means momentum is on our side, not against us.
On the leaderboard, our houses rank 2 out of 8 comparable neighbourhoods in Shawinigan for growth. That is above average. Not flashy, but solid - the kind of rank that tells a buyer this place holds its value.
- Average HonestDoor Price (Houses): $433,003
- Recent price change: +0.63%
- 3-month moving average: $427,586
- Estimated monthly rent: $2,067
- Rental yield: 5.76% - that is a strong return
- Airbnb estimate: $103 per night
- Airbnb rank in Shawinigan: 1st - we are the top short-term rental spot in the area
- Growth rank: 2 out of 8 neighbourhoods
Condos tell a slightly different story. The average HonestDoor Price is $319,642, down a hair - 0.10% - from the previous period. But do not read too much into that dip. The predicted value is actually $319,950, which is above the 3-month moving average of $316,517. So the trend line is still pointing up, even if the most recent blip was flat.
Condo growth ranks 3 out of 5 comparable neighbourhoods - below average for Shawinigan. The rental yield comes in at 4.15%, which is moderate but still meaningful if you are holding a condo as an investment. And our condos are already priced above nearby Grand-Mere ($275,591), which tells you the neighbourhood carries a premium.

How We Stack Up Against the Neighbours
Context is everything. Here is how Saint-Gerard-Des-Laurentides sits relative to nearby areas.
For houses, Grand-Mere ($333,155) and Shawinigan ($331,644) are both priced well below us. Saint-Jean-Des-Piles ($1,092,700) is in a completely different category - think waterfront and recreational properties pulling that number up. We sit in a strong middle ground: more accessible than Saint-Jean-Des-Piles, but commanding a real premium over the city core.
For condos, Grand-Mere ($298,737) is cheaper. But Shawinigan ($428,971) and Saint-Georges ($500,819) are both priced higher than us. That gap tells you there is still room for our condo values to grow if the broader Shawinigan market keeps moving.
The Secret Sauce: Why Your HonestDoor Price Beats Your Tax Assessment Right Now
Here is something most homeowners in Saint-Gerard-Des-Laurentides do not think about until it is too late. Your municipal assessment is a snapshot from the past. It gets updated on a schedule, not in real time. By the time it lands in your mailbox, the market has already moved.
The HonestDoor Price is different. It updates continuously, pulling in real transaction data and market signals as they happen. Right now, that means your house is likely worth more than what the city has on file. A predicted value of $430,713 - and climbing above a 3-month average of $427,586 - is the kind of number that should be in your back pocket before you talk to anyone about selling, refinancing, or even just understanding your net worth.
Waiting for the next assessment cycle to tell you what your home is worth is like checking last year's weather forecast before heading outside. Use the live number.
The So What - Should You Sell This Summer?
If you own a house in Saint-Gerard-Des-Laurentides and you have been thinking about selling, this summer is worth taking seriously. Here is why.
Values are trending up. The 3-month moving average is rising, not falling. We rank 2nd out of 8 neighbourhoods for growth - buyers looking at Shawinigan will notice that. And with a rental yield of 5.76%, investors are paying attention to this area. That means more potential buyers in the pool, not fewer.
The Airbnb picture adds another angle. Ranking 1st in Shawinigan for short-term rental potential at $103 per night means buyers who want flexibility - live in it, rent it, or list it on Airbnb - will see real value here. That is a selling point worth mentioning.
For condo owners, the case is a bit more measured. Growth is below average for the area, and the yield is moderate. That does not mean do not sell - it means price it right and know your competition. Shawinigan and Saint-Georges condos are priced higher, so buyers have options. Your edge is value relative to those markets.
Bottom line: Saint-Gerard-Des-Laurentides is not making headlines, but it is making money for the people who own here. Check your HonestDoor Price before you make any moves - it is the most current read on what your property is actually worth today, not two years ago.
