Buying · Longueuil · QPAREB Q2 2026 figures
Twenty-one days in Vieux-Longueuil: the ready buyer wins. Here are the budget per month, the sectors, the steps and the pitfalls for buying a house in Longueuil in 2026.
Buying a house in Longueuil in 2026 means buying in one of the South Shore's fastest markets: a $623,000 median in Vieux-Longueuil (+6 % year over year) in 21 days, $602,500 in Saint-Hubert (+5 %) in 29 days, with 169 and 135 houses active and a seller's market in every range. The budget starts around $500,000 for a 1950s to 1970s bungalow in the north or east (about $2,417 a month with the minimum down payment, household income of about $109,000), passes $650,000 for a Saint-Hubert cottage or a renovated bungalow ($3,103, $139,000) and reaches $900,000 for a renovated older home near the metro ($4,248, $188,000). At 21 days, the method counts: pre-approval, sector chosen on closed sales, an offer the first weekend. Here are the budget, the sectors, the steps and the pitfalls.
Vieux-Longueuil (QPAREB sector 43) sold its median house for $623,000 in the second quarter of 2026, +6 % year over year and +36 % in five years, in 21 days, with 169 houses active (+25 %); Saint-Hubert (sector 44), $602,500 in 29 days with 135 houses (-23 %). The market is the seller's in every range: 2.0 months of inventory between $310,000 and $460,000, 2.5 months between $460,000 and $770,000, 3.8 months above. For a buyer, that means an offer the first weekend at every price. The monthly picture is on the South Shore's August 2026 report.

Historic Vieux-Longueuil, around rue Saint-Charles and the Longueuil-Université-de-Sherbrooke metro, sells the older homes and renovated plexes above the median: walkability, character and the metro. The north, toward Parc Michel-Chartrand, and the east sell the 1950s to 1970s bungalows below the median: the entry budget. The riverfront and boulevard Marie-Victorin sell the large homes on few comparables. Saint-Hubert sells the 1990s to 2010 cottages near Parc de la Cité above its median and the bungalows near the airport below, with the exo station. Our guide living in Longueuil details each sector.
The older homes of Vieux-Longueuil: foundation, drain, electrical and insulation to inspect, and sometimes a heritage status that frames renovations. Pyrite in the 1970s to 1990s backfill in Saint-Hubert. The Saint-Hubert airport's flight paths, to check street by street. The agglomeration's roll (2025-2027, July 2023 reference) is not market value. And speed: at 21 days, the buyer without a pre-approval does not get an offer accepted.

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 Longueuil; for prices, house prices in Longueuil; to compare, Longueuil vs Laval and Brossard vs Longueuil.
About $109,000 in gross household income for a $500,000 house with 5 % down, $139,000 for $650,000 and $188,000 for $900,000, with a 30-year amortization and the stress test at 6.24 %.
Often, yes: with 21 days on market and less than 4 months of inventory in every range, the house priced at its street's level receives several offers the first weekend. The ceiling is set on comparable closed sales, not on emotion; beyond that, you let it go.
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).
