What ten years of delays say in Verdun and Nuns' Island
- Four markets in ten years for houses in Verdun and Nuns' Island: 31 days at the median in 2016-2019, 26 during the 2020-2022 frenzy, 28 when high rates returned, 17 today.

- The return of 5%-plus rates stretched the delay from 12 days in 2021 to 31 days in 2023, before it fell back to 13 days: the pause lasted two years, not ten.
- 2026 (January to September) versus 2025: 21 days then 13 days for houses, 93 sales against 113 over the whole of 2025. The borough accounts for 4.2% of Montreal's house sales in 2026.

What it changes when selling or buying in Verdun and Nuns' Island
At 13 days, Verdun and Nuns' Island is a market where buyers have no time: showings cluster in the first week, offers arrive in bunches, and the price posted on day one decides everything. A seller who lists too high loses that first week, and a property that passes the three-week mark starts to look suspect. A buyer needs the pre-approval in hand before the first showing, not after. Condos, for their part, take 28 days: condo buyers have more choice in Verdun and Nuns' Island, compare fees and buildings, and negotiate more than house buyers. Comparing the borough with all of Montreal avoids a common mistake: the city's delay (20 days) is not your street's.
How to read these numbers
Two series from the same Centris database with the same settings: Single-family then Condominium category, closed sales in the borough of Verdun and Nuns' Island (borough or sector as Centris defines it), median days on market and number of sales by year, with 2026 ending in September. The clock runs from the listing going live to the accepted offer; a property withdrawn and relisted starts again at zero. The whole city, for comparison, is on days on market in Montreal. A category is published only if it has at least 5 sales in 2026 and 30 in ten years.
