Days on market · Sainte-Adèle · Centris 2016-2026
The number of days it takes to sell a house in Sainte-Adèle, year by year since 2016, set against condos: the decade's four markets, the slowest and fastest years, and what today's delay changes for a seller. Centris figures, not estimates.
In Sainte-Adèle, a house sells in 19 days at the median in 2026 (January to September): slower than most of the 52 cities tracked (rank 39 of 52, median 13 days), but far faster than ten years ago. In 2016 it took 109 days: the market changed its nature, not only its prices. A condo sells in 40 days, 21 more than a house. Compared with 2025 (34 days), the house delay is getting shorter.

What ten years of delays say in Sainte-Adèle
- Four markets in ten years in Sainte-Adèle: 85 days at the median in 2016-2019, 25 during the 2020-2022 frenzy, 34 when high rates returned, 26 today.
- Slowest year: 2016 (109 days); fastest: 2026 (19 days). Between the two, the delay was divided by 6.
- The 2022-2023 rate hikes did not slow Sainte-Adèle: 25 days in 2021, 26 days in 2023, 19 days today. The shortage of homes for sale weighed more than the cost of credit.
- Condos sold faster than houses in 2017; in the other years, the house goes first. In 2026 the gap is 21 days in favour of the house.
- 2026 (January to September) versus 2025: 34 days then 19 days for houses, 181 sales against 249 over the whole of 2025.
- 0 years out of eleven at 15 days or less: none. Under 15 days, buyers have no time to compare; that is the case in 32 of 52 cities in 2026.
- Ten-year volume: 2,757 houses and 822 condos sold on Centris in Sainte-Adèle.
What it changes when selling or buying in Sainte-Adèle
At 19 days, Sainte-Adèle gives buyers time to compare: they visit, come back, negotiate. The seller cannot count on a bidding war; they count on the right price, presentation and patience. It is not a slow market in the 2016 sense (109 days), but it is a market where a badly priced house stays listed. Condos, for their part, take 40 days: condo buyers have more choice, compare fees and buildings, and negotiate more than house buyers.
How to read these numbers
One median per year and per category, for all of Sainte-Adèle: houses on one side, condos on the other. The clock starts when the listing goes live and stops at the accepted offer. The median tells the story of the typical house; it says nothing about the one that took six months or the one gone in two days. The QPAREB publishes an average delay, which is longer: not a contradiction, another calculation rule. For the current inventory, see buyer's or seller's market in Sainte-Adèle.
