What it changes for buying or selling a lot in Sherbrooke
In Sherbrooke, the median lot is worth $199,000 in 2026, +179% in ten years, in line with the cities tracked, and it weighs 43% of the median house. The rule of thumb: a serviced, ready-to-build lot sells well above the median; farmland or a woodlot, well below. Before building, a buyer compares lot plus construction with the price of recent houses in the area; before selling, an owner has zoning, services and buildability checked, which weigh more than the trend. The whole region is in land prices in the Eastern Townships.
How to read these figures
What this page measures: the price at which the middle lot of the Centris market sells, year by year, and how many sell. What it does not measure: the price per square foot, the median area, the share of serviced lots, or lots sold outside brokerage. Centris's Land category groups residential lots, woodlots and farmland sold through a broker, of every size: the median says where the middle of what sold sits, not the price per square foot. For a construction project, the lot is only one item: servicing, the soil study, the permit and the construction itself are others, and a broker from the team can put the total against the price of new houses in the area.
