The number of houses sold in Trois-Rivières in each month of the year, and the price obtained against the trend, over ten years of Centris sales: the peak, the trough, spring versus winter, the best-paying month, and when to list to sell at the right time. Centris figures, not estimates.

What ten years of seasons say in Trois-Rivières
- By season in Trois-Rivières: 32% of sales in spring (March to May), 23% in summer, 22% in fall and 23% in winter (December to February). Spring sells 1.4 times more than winter.
- The strongest quarter is the second (29% of sales); the weakest, the third (21%).
- Prices by season (gap to the year's trend, weighted by sales): spring +1.1%, summer +0.4%, fall -1.0%, winter +1.3%. The seasonal price gap stays small: the month matters less than the asking price and the condition of the house.
- April 2020: only 41 sales in Trois-Rivières, the lockdown month; buyers caught up the following summer. It is the only year of the ten when spring was not the peak.
- 2026 versus 2025, January to September: 718 sales against 690 (+4%). The market is a little more active than last year.
- Across the 50 cities tracked, March is the peak month (11.2% of sales) and January the trough (5.9%); the peak falls in spring in 49 cities and the trough in winter in 45. The median price premium is highest in April (+2.2%) and lowest in December (-1.8%).
What it changes when selling or buying in Trois-Rivières
To sell in Trois-Rivières, aiming for the peak means listing before it: a house put on the market at the end of January or early February gets its showings during the weeks with the most buyers, and the accepted offer lands in March. The best-paying month is not necessarily the busiest: in April, homes go 3.3% above trend, while the sales peak is in March. For a buyer, September and the winter months offer less competition and sellers who have been waiting since the fall, but also less choice: you have to be ready to decide on what is there. And in every case, the seasonal price gap remains smaller than what a good asking price and a good marketing plan bring: selling at the wrong price in May costs more than selling at the right price in November.
How to read these figures
"Sales" counts the single-family houses sold on Centris in Trois-Rivières by the month the sale was concluded (accepted offer to purchase), not the notary signing date, which comes two to three months later. Each month's share is computed over the ten years 2016 to 2025 to smooth out the frenzy years and the quiet years. The "premium" compares the median price of the month's sales with the year's trend (a line drawn between the annual medians of home prices in Trois-Rivières): without this step, January would always look cheaper than December because of the continuous rise in prices.
