What the gap says in Terrebonne
- The stickiest bracket: $300,000 to $500,000, 10 days in median but 27 days on average, 2.8 times. Half the houses go fast there; the other half includes listings that wait for months, enough to pull the average 17 days above the median.
- The most even bracket: under $300,000, 1 times (86 days in median, 88 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): $300,000 to $500,000, $500,000 to $800,000. 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 2 under $500,000 and 2.3 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 30 days of average days and 10 days of median days all ranges in Terrebonne, a ratio of 3; the twelve months on this page (October 2025 to September 2026) give 2.3. 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 Terrebonne
In Terrebonne, a few houses linger in every bracket: the median of 13 days says the timing of a house at the right price, the average of 29 days says what a house that missed its launch costs, in time. The gap is widest in $300,000 to $500,000 (2.8 times) and narrowest in under $300,000 (1 times). For a seller, the bracket says how long the price can be held before the listing tips over to the lingering side: beyond the bracket's median, every extra week costs negotiating power. For a buyer, a house listed for twice its bracket's median is a house where the seller listens. Median days by bracket, alone, are in days on market by price in Terrebonne; average and median year by year, with expired listings, in houses that do not sell in Terrebonne; days on market over ten years, in days on market in Terrebonne.
How to read these figures
One table for all of Terrebonne, over twelve months, single-family houses only. Days are counted between listing and the accepted offer, for sold houses; those that expired or were withdrawn without selling are not included, which is why the average still understates the time of the houses that truly linger. Both timings are read with the number of sales beside them: 621 sales in $500,000 to $800,000 give a measure, a bracket with 21 sales an indication. 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.
Frequently asked questions
How long to sell in Terrebonne: the average or the median?
Both are true in Terrebonne: 13 days in median, 29 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 2.3 (a few houses linger) says by how much.
In which price bracket do houses linger the most in Terrebonne?
$300,000 to $500,000: 10 days in median, 27 days on average, a ratio of 2.8. Across the 50 cities tracked, the stickiest bracket is most often $300,000 to $500,000 (17 cities).
Why do some houses linger in Terrebonne?
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 Terrebonne, the $300,000 to $500,000 bracket is where it happens the most. The share of listings that never close at all is in houses that do not sell in Terrebonne.
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.
