Renting · Rent in Pierrefonds-Roxboro · September 17, 2026
Not an average of listings, signed leases: the median rent in Pierrefonds-Roxboro over 12 months, by unit size and number of bedrooms, the income you need to pay it and what buying the median condo would cost instead.
As of September 17, 2026, across 109 units rented through a broker (Centris) in Pierrefonds-Roxboro between September 16, 2025 and September 16, 2026, the median rent is $1,750 a month, with half of the leases between $1,450 and $2,150. A 4½ (two bedrooms) rents for about $1,450, a 3½ (one bedroom) for about $1,440 and a 5½ (three bedrooms) for about $1,595. Under the 30% rule, a rent of $1,450 calls for a household income of about $58,000 a year. Pierrefonds-Roxboro ranks 35 out of 69 cities and boroughs we track, from the lowest rent to the highest.

Between September 16, 2025 and September 16, 2026, 109 units were rented through a broker in Pierrefonds-Roxboro and recorded on Centris. The median rent on those leases is $1,750 a month; the cheapest quarter rented below $1,450 and the most expensive quarter above $2,150. These are rents actually signed, not asking prices in listings. One honest caveat: units rented through a broker are generally newer, larger or better located than the rental stock as a whole, so these medians sit above the average rent of every unit in the city; they describe what a new tenant pays when signing today, not what a tenant who has been in place for ten years pays.
The room count is the one on the lease (the "½" is the bathroom): a 3½ is a one-bedroom, a 4½ a two-bedroom, a 5½ usually a three-bedroom.

"Apartment or condo" groups units in rental buildings and condos rented out by their owner; a rented house is rare and costs noticeably more.
The benchmark most landlords and lenders use is the 30% rule: rent should not exceed 30% of gross household income. For a 4½ at $1,450, that means about $58,000 in annual income ($1,450 × 12 ÷ 0.30), and $63,800 for a 5½ at $1,595, $57,600 for a 3½ at $1,440. Many households go over that line; it is still the first number a landlord looks at in a rental application, along with the credit check and references.
The median condo sold in Pierrefonds-Roxboro from January to August 2026 went for $369,500 (194 sales, from our home and condo prices in Pierrefonds-Roxboro series). For an owner-occupant, the minimum down payment is $18,475 (5.00%, CMHC rule read September 16, 2026) and, at the 4.29% five-year fixed rate posted by Multi-Prêts on September 14, 2026, over 25 years, the mortgage payment is about $1,978 a month, before municipal and school taxes, insurance and condo fees; lenders qualify you at the 6.29% stress-test rate, or $2,399 a month. Next to that, a 4½ rents for $1,450. The gap between the two, plus the down payment tied up, is the real price of ownership; our pages on first-time buyers in Pierrefonds-Roxboro, FHSA and renting or buying in Montreal run the full calculation.
From the lowest median rent to the highest: Montréal-Nord $1,500; Saint-Léonard $1,500; RDP-Pointe-aux-Trembles $1,593; Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve $1,650; Ahuntsic-Cartierville $1,675.

In Quebec, the rent on a unit that is already leased does not follow the market: it follows the current lease and the percentages the Tribunal administratif du logement publishes every January; our page on the 2026 rent increase gives the year's rates and how the notice works. The mandatory lease is the TAL form, no security deposit can be required, and clause G of the lease tells you the rent paid by the previous tenant: if the new rent sits well above the medians here, you have an argument. Our landlord and tenant guide for Quebec covers the rest.
If you rent out a unit in Pierrefonds-Roxboro, compare it with the row for its size: a rent below the first quartile leaves money on the table at every renewal, a rent above the third quartile stretches the vacancy. For a building, the median rent per door multiplied by the number of units gives the potential gross income plex buyers work with ; our pages on plexes for sale in Pierrefonds-Roxboro and triplexes for sale in Montreal run that calculation. Our pages on rental income and taxes and the rental property owner guide complete the picture.
