Days on market · Sept-Îles · Centris 2016-2026
The number of days it takes to sell a house in Sept-Îles, 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 Sept-Îles, a house sells in 13 days at the median in 2026 (January to September), in line with the 52 cities tracked (median 13 days, rank 29). In 2016 it took 84 days: the market changed its nature, not only its prices. Compared with 2025 (27 days), the house delay is getting shorter. Source: Centris (Matrix), compiled September 29, 2026.

What ten years of delays say in Sept-Îles
- Four markets in ten years in Sept-Îles: 90 days at the median in 2016-2019, 52 during the 2020-2022 frenzy, 28 when high rates returned, 20 today.
- Slowest year: 2019 (112 days); fastest: 2026 (13 days). Between the two, the delay was divided by 9.
- The 2022-2023 rate hikes did not slow Sept-Îles: 52 days in 2021, 28 days in 2023, 13 days today. The shortage of homes for sale weighed more than the cost of credit.
- Condos are too rare in Sept-Îles for a reliable series (34 sales in ten years): only houses are tracked here.
- 2026 (January to September) versus 2025: 27 days then 13 days for houses, 155 sales against 212 over the whole of 2025.
- 1 year out of eleven at 15 days or less: 2026. Under 15 days, buyers have no time to compare; that is the case in 32 of 52 cities in 2026.
- Ten-year volume: 2,323 houses and 34 condos sold on Centris in Sept-Îles.
What it changes when selling or buying in Sept-Îles
At 13 days, Sept-Îles sits in the middle of the cities tracked: fast enough for the seller to keep the upper hand, slow enough for a buyer to visit twice. The day-one price matters, but a well-presented house finds a buyer without a systematic bidding war.
How to read these numbers
Centris's median days on market counts the days between a listing going live and the accepted offer, on closed sales; the median is the middle value, half the sales faster, the other half slower. 2026 covers January to September. A median is always shorter than an average when a few houses linger for months: the QPAREB publishes an average delay, longer by construction; both describe the same market with two rules.
