Buying · Brossard · QPAREB Q2 2026 figures
The sector, the letter, the REM and the budget per month: here is how to buy a house in Brossard in 2026 without overpaying or missing the right street.
Buying a house in Brossard in 2026 means buying in a seller's market in every range, at an $803,000 median in the Brossard-Saint-Lambert sector (+2 % year over year), in 41 days, with 320 houses active. The budget starts around $600,000 for a bungalow in sectors A, B and C near the Champlain bridge (about $2,875 a month with the minimum down payment, household income of about $129,000), passes $800,000 for a cottage in sectors M to R ($3,790, $168,000) and exceeds a million in sectors L, P and S ($4,706, $208,000). The method: a pre-approval before the first viewing, the sector chosen on closed sales, an offer the first weekend documented with the street's last three sales, an inspection and a reading of the certificate of location. Here are the budget, the sectors, the steps and the pitfalls.
Brossard-Saint-Lambert (QPAREB sector 42) sold its median house for $803,000 in the second quarter of 2026, +2 % year over year and +26 % in five years, in 41 days, with 320 houses active (+3 %) and a seller's market in every range: 0.8 months of inventory under $400,000, 2.8 months between $400,000 and $600,000, 4.7 months between $600,000 and a million, 7.8 months above $1.2 million. For a buyer, that means a quick offer under a million and time to compare above. Saint-Hubert ($602,500) and Vieux-Longueuil ($623,000), next door, are $180,000 cheaper. The monthly picture is on the South Shore's August 2026 report.
| Sector (QPAREB, Q2 2026) | House, median | 1 year | 5 years | Days | Houses active |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Brossard, Saint-Lambert | $803,000 | 2% | 26 % | 41 days | 320 |
| Saint-Hubert (neighbour) | $602,500 | 5% | 36 % | 29 days | 135 |
| Candiac, La Prairie (neighbours) | $820,000 | 4% | 33 % | 39 days | 162 |
| South Shore, all | $648,500 | 2% | 39 % | 30 days | 1 |
| Range | Months of inventory | Market |
|---|---|---|
| < 400K | 0.8 months | Seller |
| 400K - 600K | 2.8 months | Seller |
| 600K - 1 000K | 4.7 months | Seller |
| 1 000K - 1 200K | 4.0 months | Seller |
| >= 1 200K | 7.8 months | Seller |
Under 4 months of inventory, the seller leads and a fairly priced house goes in three weeks; above 8 months, the buyer leads and the delay is counted in months.
| Purchase price | Minimum down payment | Monthly payment at 4.24 %, 30 years (CMHC premium included) | Gross household income required (approx.) |
|---|---|---|---|
| $600,000 | $35,000 | $2,875 | $129,000 |
| $700,000 | $45,000 | $3,332 | $149,000 |
| $800,000 | $55,000 | $3,790 | $168,000 |
| $900,000 | $65,000 | $4,248 | $188,000 |
| $1,000,000 | $75,000 | $4,706 | $208,000 |
Assumptions: 4.24 % five-year fixed rate, stress test at 6.24 %, 5 % down up to $500,000 and 10 % on the portion above, CMHC premium added to the loan, municipal and school taxes at 0.9 % of the price, $1,800 a year in heating, 39 % gross debt service ratio. Your file may give a different result.
Sectors A, B and C, near the Champlain bridge, boulevard Taschereau and the Panama REM station, sell the 1960s to 1980s bungalows and cottages: the entry budget, to refresh, with the REM premium. Sectors M, N, O and R, in the centre, sell the 1970s to 1990s cottages at the median. Sectors L, P and S, south of Grande-Allée near Parc de la Cité and Quartier DIX30, sell the large 1980s to 2010 homes, often above a million. Sectors T, U and V, to the east toward Saint-Hubert, sell the recent homes. Saint-Lambert, in the same sector, sells its older village homes on their own comparables. Our guide living in Brossard details each letter.
Pyrite in the 1970s to 1990s backfill: ask for the test or the certificate. The Longueuil agglomeration's municipal roll (2025-2027, July 2023 reference) is not market value, one way or the other. An up-to-date certificate of location, especially with a pool or an extension. The REM is not a tax, but the proximity premium is real: do not pay it on a street 25 minutes' walk away. And the sector: an identical house is worth $100,000 more in P than in A; compare within the same letter.

The Loaa & Manseur team, led by Lotfi Manseur and Loaa Al Daow, is the number 1 team at RE/MAX Platine in 2024 and 2025, 6th RE/MAX team in Quebec, 15th in Canada and in the global top 50 of large residential teams according to the official RE/MAX ranking, computed on actual transactions. Its Google profile counts 221 reviews with a 4.9 rating. Its offices are at 55 avenue de l'Équinoxe in Brossard, one bridge from the island, and every broker's licence can be checked in the OACIQ public register. Three things to verify yourself before calling us, and to demand of any other broker.
For the budget, first-time home buyer in Brossard; for prices, house prices in Brossard; to compare, Brossard vs Longueuil and Brossard vs Chomedey.
About $129,000 in gross household income for a $600,000 house with the minimum down payment ($30,000 plus $10,000 on the portion above $500,000), $168,000 for $800,000 and $208,000 for a million, with a 30-year amortization and the stress test at 6.24 %.
Under a million, often: the market is the seller's with less than 5 months of inventory, and a house priced at its street's level receives several offers the first weekend. Above $1.2 million, with 7.8 months of inventory, no: the buyer has time and negotiates. In both cases, the offer is documented with closed sales, not with the other offers.
Published forecasts (Desjardins, QPAREB, CMHC) expect stable to moderately rising prices in 2027 and a policy rate around 2.75 %; waiting does not lower the price. The right time is when your budget, your pre-approval and your sector are ready; in a seller's market, the ready buyer beats the buyer who waits.
Generally nothing: the buyer's broker's compensation is provided for in the seller's brokerage contract and paid at the sale. The purchase brokerage contract states what happens if the seller provides none; we explain it before signing. See our fees (in French).
