If you live in Saint-Gerard-Des-Laurentides and you haven't checked your home's value lately, you're probably sitting on more than you think. While a lot of Shawinigan neighborhoods are treading water, this one is moving in the right direction - steadily, without a lot of noise about it.
Let's break it down for us locals, because houses and condos are telling two slightly different stories here.
The average HonestDoor Price for a house in Saint-Gerard-Des-Laurentides sits at $430,713 - up 0.63% from the previous period. The predicted market value is $428,011, and that number is climbing past the 3-month moving average of $424,635. That upward trend matters. It means momentum is building, not fading.
That 5.76% rental yield is the number landlords should be paying attention to. That's a strong return. And being ranked number one for Airbnb potential in all of Shawinigan? That's not a small thing if you're thinking about short-term rental income.
Compare that to the neighbors: Grand-Mere houses average $332,358 and Shawinigan proper sits at $331,841. We're priced about $100,000 higher - and holding that gap.
Condos here are also moving in the right direction. The average HonestDoor Price is $319,950, up 1.05% from the previous period. The predicted market value is $316,617, beating the 3-month moving average of $313,178. Recent value change clocks in at 1.16% - actually outpacing houses on the growth side.
A 4.15% rental yield on condos is moderate but respectable. And ranking 2nd out of 5 comparable neighborhoods for condo growth puts Saint-Gerard-Des-Laurentides solidly in the top tier. Grand-Mere condos average $272,703 - we're running about $44,000 ahead of that.
Here's the thing about your city assessment - it's a snapshot from the past. It doesn't know that your neighborhood's predicted value just crossed $428,000 and is trending upward. It doesn't factor in this month's market activity or the fact that Saint-Gerard-Des-Laurentides is outperforming most of its neighbors right now.
The HonestDoor Price is updated in real time. It's built on current market data, not a number a government office locked in a year or two ago. If you're making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, even just figuring out if your insurance coverage makes sense - the HonestDoor Price is the number that actually reflects what your home is worth today. Your tax assessment is a rear-view mirror. HonestDoor is the windshield.
If you've been on the fence about listing, here's the honest take: the numbers are working in your favor right now, but this isn't a screaming seller's market either. It's a steady, above-average one.
Houses are sitting at $430,713 on average and trending up. You're priced well above Grand-Mere and Shawinigan proper. Buyers looking in this area are paying a premium to be here - and they're still coming. A 0.94% recent value change and a growth rank of 4 out of 8 means you're in the better half of the Shawinigan leaderboard, not just scraping by.
For condo owners, the 1.16% recent growth and a rank of 2 out of 5 is actually the stronger story right now. If you've been waiting for a signal, that's a decent one.
Bottom line: summer 2025 is a reasonable window to sell. You're not leaving money on the table by listing now. But check your HonestDoor Price first - because the number you're thinking of might already be out of date.
