Price per square foot in Ville-Marie: the last 12 months
Between September 16, 2025 and September 16, 2026, a condo sold for a median $640 per square foot (half of sales between $543 and $756, over 1,395 sales) and a single-family home for $641 per square foot ($487 to $809 for the middle half, 28 sales). The square-foot figure is computed on the living area declared on the listing (Matrix's price-per-square-foot column for condos, sale price divided by living area for single-family homes); sales without a declared area, outliers and rentals are excluded, which explains the gap between sales read and sales kept, especially for houses.
| Category | Median price per sq. ft. | Middle half (Q1 to Q3) | Sales with an area | Sales read | Median sale price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Single-family | $641 | $487 to $809 | 28 | 50 | $1,110,000 |
| Condo | $640 | $543 to $756 | 1,395 | 1,462 | $460,050 |
Source: Centris (Matrix), sold listings with a status change in the last 12 months, price per square foot computed on the declared living area; aggregates compiled by the team on September 16, 2026. A new condo, a high floor or an included parking spot push the square-foot price up; a garden level or a walk-up pull it down: always compare a property with sales of the same type.
How to read these numbers
The median price is the middle price: half the sales closed above it, half below. It resists exceptional sales better than the average does. The categories are Centris's own: "Single-family", "Condominium" and "Income property" of 2 to 5 units. The year 2026 covers January to August; median days to sell count the days between listing and an accepted offer; the sold-to-asking ratio compares the sale price with the last listed price. These statistics describe Ville-Marie (downtown) as a whole: a neighbourhood, a street or a type of house can differ sharply, which is exactly what a market value evaluation pins down.
