If you own property in Sainte-Famille and the last number you checked was your city tax assessment, you are probably sitting on a number that does not reflect what your home is actually worth right now. Here is the real picture.
We are seeing two very different stories play out on our streets right now, and it is worth knowing which one applies to you.
If you own a house here, things are moving in the right direction. The average HonestDoor Price sits at $422,546 - up 1.27% from the previous period. The predicted market value is $417,218, and that number is climbing past the 3-month moving average of $415,085. That upward trend matters. It means buyer demand is not disappearing.
That growth rank is the number we should all be talking about. Ranking 1st out of 10 comparable neighbourhoods in Victoriaville means Sainte-Famille houses are outperforming most of the city. That is not a small thing.
For context, our neighbours in Charles-Edouard-Mailhot are sitting at an average HonestDoor Price of $369,895, and Parc De L'Amitie comes in at $416,524. Both are cheaper than us. If someone is shopping in this part of Victoriaville, Sainte-Famille is holding its value at the top end of the range.
The condo picture is a bit more mixed, and we should be straight about that. The average HonestDoor Price jumped hard - up 20.41% to $366,400. That is a big headline number. But the predicted market value is $304,295, and that figure is actually pulling back from the 3-month moving average of $321,067. So while the HonestDoor Price reflects strong recent gains, the short-term trend is taking a breather.
For condo owners, the comparison to nearby areas is still favourable. Charles-Edouard-Mailhot condos average $207,288, Parc De L'Amitie sits at $236,131, and Parc-Victoria comes in at $264,839. Our condos are priced above all of them. That gap needs to be justified by what buyers actually see when they walk through the door.
Here is the thing about city assessments - they are snapshots 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 data and current market signals. It is the difference between checking yesterday's weather and looking out the window right now.
For house owners in Sainte-Famille, the HonestDoor Price of $422,546 is the number a motivated buyer is going to be thinking about - not whatever the city last assessed your property at. If those two numbers are far apart, you could be leaving money on the table or pricing yourself out of a deal without knowing it.
For condo owners, the 20.41% jump in HonestDoor Price is a signal worth paying attention to, even as the short-term predicted value softens. It tells you the market recognized real value here recently. Knowing where you stand right now - not six months ago - is the only way to make a smart decision.
For house owners, the timing looks solid. You are sitting in the top-ranked neighbourhood for growth in Victoriaville, your values are trending upward, and rental demand is strong enough that buyers who are not ready to move in immediately still have a reason to want your property. A rental yield of 5.81% is the kind of number that gets investor attention.
For condo owners, the story is a little more nuanced. The big price jump is real, but the predicted value is softening right now. If you are thinking about selling, this summer could still be a good window - but pricing it right from day one matters more than it did six months ago. Overpricing a condo in a market that is catching its breath is the fastest way to sit on a listing nobody calls about.
Either way, the first step is the same - check your HonestDoor Price today. It is the real-world number, not the government's best guess from two years ago. Know what you have before you decide what to do with it.
