"Cheap" means nothing without a benchmark. Ours is the first quartile of real sales: between September 2025 and September 2026, 264 single-family homes sold in Magog on Centris; the cheapest quarter closed under $423,000, the cheapest tenth under $339,000, and the median from January to August 2026 is $600,000. Under $423,000, you are in the part of the market where houses are the smallest, the oldest or the least well located in town; it is also where competition between first-time buyers is fiercest.
11 sales under $300,000, 46 under $400,000, 92 under $500,000 and 143 under $600,000 over 12 months (that is 17% of sales under $400,000 and 35% under $500,000). The lowest range with at least 5 sales is $250,000 to $300,000, median $285,000. 45 houses sold above one million.
