- Rent: $1,500 in Saint-Léonard against $1,700 in Anjou; Saint-Léonard is the cheaper to rent, the opposite of the purchase price: rent does not follow price. Renting costs $661 a month less than owning at 20% down in Saint-Léonard, and $249 less in Anjou.

- Across the 46 matchups tracked, the median gap between two median condos is $58,875 (15%); the cheaper one rose faster in 21 matchups and sells faster in 18; where rent is known, the cheaper to buy is also the cheaper to rent in 26 matchups out of 36, and it is the one that yields the most to an investor in 30 out of 34.
What it changes for buying, renting or selling
The hierarchy has held for ten years, Saint-Léonard on top, but the gap moved: from 6% to 13%, the pricier one is pulling away, a sign that its stock or location is increasingly paid for. On the investor side, Anjou yields the most (5.4% gross), because rent follows price less there. For a buyer, the choice is not only price: Anjou sells faster, and that is where an offer must come in the first week. For a seller, the comparable is their own borough; the neighbour helps understand where buyers can go if the price is too high. Each one's ten years, year by year: condo prices in Saint-Léonard and condo prices in Anjou.
How to read these figures
Prices and sales come from our Centris (Matrix) series by borough and sector: median sale price and number of condominium sales by year (September 16, 2026 query), median days on market and sold-to-asking ratio over the past twelve months (same query); 2026 counts January to September. The median rent comes from Centris leases of the past twelve months in the same territory, condo fees from sold listings. The owner's monthly cost assumes 20% down, 25 years, the 2026 average contracted rate (4.14%), plus median condo fees and taxes; the gross yield divides annual rent by the median price; the break-even counts the years before owning becomes cheaper than renting, at 2% appreciation a year, buying and selling costs included. A borough without known rent has none of those lines. The median price compares different stocks: a new two-bedroom condo and a 1980s three-and-a-half do not cost the same in the same neighbourhood.
