What the ranking says
- The cheapest third (Rouyn-Noranda, Rimouski, Saguenay, Lévis, Gatineau...) runs from $270,000 to $335,000: regional cities and suburbs where the condo remains the entry product.
- The cheapest condo is sometimes dearer than the house next door: the median condo of Westmount ($835,000) exceeds the median house of 44 of the 50 cities tracked.
- The condo-house gap reads in the last column: a condo is worth 37% to 88% of its city's median house. Where it nears the house, the condo is large or the house is scarce.
- Across the 41 cities, the 2026 median condo runs from $270,000 to $835,000, a ratio of 3.1: less than the gap between the cheapest and most expensive houses.
What it changes for buying or selling
For a first-time buyer, this ranking is the entry price in the cities with enough condos to choose from (50 sales a year or more). Read the last column before buying: in a city where the median condo is worth more than 70% of the median house, the house is often the better buy at the same budget, because its resale price does not depend on condo fees and the contingency fund. For a condo seller in a city at the bottom of the ranking, your buyer compares with houses, not only with other condos.
How to read this ranking
Every city in the table has its page in the condo prices by city series, where the full 2016-2026 series and the method are detailed. Ranks are computed on the 41 cities tracked, not on all of Quebec: a missing city is not unranked, it is not tracked. Values are Centris (Matrix) figures for single-family house sales and condominium sales over January to September 2026; 2016 is the full year. Ties are ordered alphabetically. No new query: only aggregates already published are reordered.
Frequently asked questions
In which city does a condo cost the least in Quebec?
Rouyn-Noranda, with a median condo at $270,000 over January to September 2026, ahead of Rimouski ($284,000) and Saguenay ($287,000), among the 41 cities with 50 or more condo sales a year.
Why only these cities?
The ranking covers the 41 cities where at least 50 condominiums sell a year, so the median is a measurement and not a coincidence. Cities with few condos are in the house rankings.
Does the condo rise as much as the house?
Less, in general: the condo's 2016-2026 gain is in the table city by city, and the median for houses is +124%. The condo mostly caught up in 2022, a year after the house.
