What the gap says in Saint-Constant
- The stickiest bracket: $1M and up, 12 days in median but 40 days on average, 3.3 times. Half the houses go fast there; the other half includes listings that wait for months, enough to pull the average 28 days above the median.
- The most even bracket: $300,000 to $500,000, 1.3 times (13 days in median, 17 days on average). Few houses are left behind there: the market decides fast either way.
- Brackets where many houses linger (ratio of 2.5 and up): $500,000 to $800,000, $1M and up. That is where a poorly prepared or overpriced listing sits for months without an offer while the others go in two weeks.
- Bottom versus top of the market: ratio of 1.3 under $500,000 and 1.6 at $800,000 and up: the top of the market has more houses that linger. It is the case in 12 cities out of 35.
- Across the 50 cities tracked, the typical house sells in 15 days in median of cities, the average sale takes 34 days: ratio 2.3; by bracket, under $300,000 1.9; $300,000 to $500,000 2.4; $500,000 to $800,000 2.4; $800,000 to $1M 1.9; $1M and up 2.3. The stickiest bracket is most often $300,000 to $500,000 (17 cities), the most even $800,000 to $1M (16 cities); 15 cities have a ratio of 2.5 and up all sales, 1 a ratio under 1.5.
And over the year: the annual series
Over the year 2026 (January to September), our annual series gives 36 days of average days and 13 days of median days all ranges in Saint-Constant, a ratio of 2.8; the twelve months on this page (October 2025 to September 2026) give 2.2. The two windows only partly overlap; what this page adds is the bracket: the ratio is not the same at every price.
What it changes for selling or buying in Saint-Constant
In Saint-Constant, the average sticks to the median: 35 days against 16 days, ratio 2.2. Few houses are left behind, which means the market absorbs even the less prepared listings, or that those that do not go leave the market fast (withdrawal, expiry) instead of dragging on. For a seller, it is a market without a slow second chance: if the house does not go within its bracket's median, it is the price to revisit, not patience. For a buyer, there are few exhausted listings to negotiate; the offer is made on comparables, near asking. Median days by bracket, alone, are in days on market by price in Saint-Constant; average and median year by year, with expired listings, in houses that do not sell in Saint-Constant; days on market over ten years, in days on market in Saint-Constant.
How to read these figures
Two timings per bracket. The median splits sales in two: half the houses found a taker in under 16 days in Saint-Constant, the other half in more. The average adds up every day on market and divides by sales: a single house sold after 200 days weighs as much as ten houses sold in 20 days. The average-to-median ratio therefore measures the tail: the higher it is, the more listings lingered a long time before selling. Reading grid, the same on all our pages: a ratio under 1.5 = even timing (the average sticks to the median); 1.5 to 2.5 = a few houses linger; 2.5 and up = many houses linger a long time before selling. Brackets with fewer than 5 sales are not published.
Frequently asked questions
How long to sell in Saint-Constant: the average or the median?
Both are true in Saint-Constant: 16 days in median, 35 days on average, over the past 12 months (October 2025 to September 2026). The median is the timing of the typical house; the average is pulled up by the houses that linger. The ratio of 2.2 (a few houses linger) says by how much.
In which price bracket do houses linger the most in Saint-Constant?
$1M and up: 12 days in median, 40 days on average, a ratio of 3.3. Across the 50 cities tracked, the stickiest bracket is most often $300,000 to $500,000 (17 cities).
Why do some houses linger in Saint-Constant?
Three causes come back: a starting price above the bracket's comparable sales, a weak launch (photos, description, availability for showings) and an off-season entry. The market does not punish at once: it ignores, then the house cuts its price and sells after months, which inflates the average. In Saint-Constant, the $1M and up bracket is where it happens the most. The share of listings that never close at all is in houses that do not sell in Saint-Constant.
Are these figures Centris counts or estimates?
Yes: average days on market and median days on market by range come from Centris (Matrix), on the sales of the past twelve months. The ratio between the two is a simple quotient; the reading grid (1.5 and 2.5) is ours, the same on every page. Brackets group the ranges by weighting with the sales of the same period, which is an average of averages: a faithful order of magnitude, not a sale-by-sale recalculation.
