Condo: sold vs asking · Westmount · Centris 2016-2026
Do condos in Westmount sell at asking, over or under, and since when? The sale ÷ asking price ratio per year since 2016, the ratio on the original price to see price cuts, houses alongside, and the gap translated into dollars on the median condo. Centris figures, not estimates.
In Westmount, a condo sold on average at 96% of its asking price in 2026 (January to September), that is under the asking price: more room to negotiate on a condo than in most of the 41 cities tracked (median 98%). In 2016 it was 96%; at the peak, 2020, 97%, even the frenzy did not push condos over their listed price. A house in Westmount sells at 96% of its asking price in 2026: condos and houses are negotiated alike. On the 2026 median condo ($835,000), the average gap between asking and sale price comes to $33,400 less. Source: Centris (Matrix), compiled October 7, 2026.

What ten years of ratios say about condos in Westmount

- Peak: 2020 (97%); trough: 2021 (95%). The average condo sale price never exceeded the asking price in Westmount, even in 2021-2022: the condo frenzy played out in speed and the end of negotiation, not in bidding wars.
- Condo versus house at the peak: in 2021, condos sold at 95% and houses at 97% (-2 points); in 2026, 96% against 96% (+0). Bidding wars hit houses much harder than condos: there were still condos for sale when there were no houses left. The condo peak came in 2020.
- The return of high rates: 95% in 2021, 96% in 2023 (+1 points), 96% in 2026. We are back to the 2016 level of negotiation on condos.
- Asking price versus original price: the gap between the two ratios (1 point in 2016, 2 in 2026) measures the price cuts made before the sale. Condo sellers had to cut their price along the way more often than in 2016.
- In dollars, on the median condo: $24,940 under asking in 2016 (condo at $623,500), $45,875 under in 2021 ($917,500), $33,400 under in 2026 ($835,000). Order of magnitude, ratio rounded to the point.
- 2026 (Jan. to Sep.) versus 2025: 96% then 96% (stable); 151 condo sales in nine months. Across the 41 cities, condos sell at asking or over in 2 in 2026, against 31 in 2021.
What it changes when selling or buying a condo in Westmount
At 96% of asking, Westmount is a city where condos are negotiated: 4% on average between the listed price and the paid price, and more on units that linger. For a seller, the starting price has to anticipate that negotiation without inviting it: a condo listed 8% too high draws offers 15% too low. For a buyer, an offer under asking is the norm here, especially on a condo listed for more than a month or in a building with high fees. The same ratio for houses, year by year, is in sold over asking in Westmount; the condos that expire without a sale are counted in condos that do not sell in Westmount.
How to read these figures
The "sale price vs asking price" ratio is the average, for condos sold in the year, of the sale price divided by the last asking price at the time of sale; the "vs original price" ratio divides by the price listed on the first day. Matrix publishes them as whole percentages, which explains the plateaus. A 100% ratio does not mean every condo sold at its price: bidding wars and discounts offset each other. The house column comes from the same query in the Single-family category. 2026 (Jan. to Sep.) is a partial year, and 2026 condo sales stop in mid-September.

What is the difference between asking price and original price?
The asking price is the one listed at the time of sale; the original price is the one from the listing's first day.
