If you live on one of Verdun's tree-lined streets and you've been wondering what your place is actually worth right now - not what the city thinks it's worth, but what a real buyer would pay - here's your honest update.
The two sides of the Verdun market are telling pretty different stories right now, and it's worth knowing which one you're in.
Our houses are holding their own. The average HonestDoor Price sits at $951,171. That's down a slim 0.41% from last period - basically a rounding error, not a red flag. Think of it as the market catching its breath after a strong run.
That growth rank is the number to watch. Sitting 11th out of 27 comparable Montreal neighbourhoods puts us in the upper half of the leaderboard. We're not leading the pack, but we're ahead of more than half the city. For a neighbourhood that's still priced below the Montreal average, that's a decent position to be in.
The rental story is also worth a look. A 4.85% yield on a house is a moderate but real return. If you're an investor or a homeowner thinking about renting out a unit, that number says Verdun houses pull their weight.
The condo side of Verdun is a more mixed picture right now. The HonestDoor Price for condos is up 1.99% to $613,121 - that's a genuine positive move. But the predicted market value has dipped to $601,167, which is sitting below the 3-month moving average of $611,031. Values are down 1.72% recently. That's a gap worth paying attention to.
Here's the interesting tension in the condo data. We rank 3rd out of 11 for price - meaning Verdun condos cost more than most comparable Montreal neighbourhoods. But our growth rank is 15th out of 20. That combination - high price, slower growth - is something any condo owner should factor in before making a move.
The one bright spot that often gets overlooked: Verdun condos rank 2nd in all of Montreal for Airbnb potential. At $144 per night, that's a real income lever for owners who have the flexibility to use it.
Here's the thing about your city assessment. It's a snapshot taken in the past, updated on a slow government schedule, and it has no idea what happened to your neighbour's house last month. It doesn't know about the new cafe on Wellington, the park upgrade, or the fact that three houses on your block just sold above asking.
The HonestDoor Price is different. It pulls from real, current market data and updates in real time. Right now, for Verdun houses, there's a meaningful gap between the average sale price ($700,233) and the HonestDoor Price ($951,171). That gap is information. It tells you the market is pricing Verdun homes well above what recent transaction averages alone might suggest.
If you're making any financial decision - refinancing, selling, buying out a co-owner, or just figuring out your net worth - your tax assessment is the wrong number to use. Your HonestDoor Price is the real-world check.
For house owners, the timing is reasonable. Values are essentially flat but the predicted value of $955,604 is nudging above the 3-month average - a small but positive signal heading into summer. You're not leaving money on the table by listing now, and you're not in a market that's running away from you either. Inventory is thin - only 3 houses sold last month - which means less competition for sellers.
For condo owners, be a bit more strategic. The growth rank of 15th out of 20 and the recent 1.72% dip in predicted values suggest the condo market here is softer right now. That doesn't mean don't sell - it means price it right from day one. Overpricing a Verdun condo in this environment is a fast way to sit on the market through the summer.
Either way, check your HonestDoor Price before you have a single conversation with an agent. Walk into that meeting knowing your number - not theirs.
