Plexes for sale · Trois-Rivières · Centris 2016-2026
The number of plexes for sale in Trois-Rivières at each month-end, and the number of new listings, year by year since 2016: the peak, the frenzy trough, the absorption rate, months of inventory, and the comparison with single-family houses and condos in the same city. Centris figures, not estimates.
In Trois-Rivières, an average of 85 plexes (2 to 5 unit buildings) were for sale on Centris at each month-end in 2026 (January to September), against 201 in 2016: plex inventory is 42% of what it was ten years ago, one of the steepest declines among the 23 cities tracked (median 58%). The trough was 2025 (70 plexes, -65% from the 2019 peak); since then, inventory has climbed back 21%. The result in 2026: 4.2 months of inventory for plexes (balanced market) against 2.7 for single-family houses (seller's market) and 13.1 for condos. Plexes sell 1.5 months more slowly than houses in Trois-Rivières: an income-property buyer has time to run the numbers, and the seller must list at the price the rents justify.

What it changes when selling or buying a plex in Trois-Rivières
At 4.2 months of inventory, the plex in Trois-Rivières is a balanced market in 2026: enough buildings for a buyer to compare, few enough for a well-priced seller to find a buyer within weeks. Pricing makes the difference: a plex priced at the sector's latest price per unit sells, a plex listed on a 2022 multiplier waits. Houses, meanwhile, remain at 2.7 months: a plex is an investment and sells like one, on the numbers, taking the time it takes. The sector's price per unit and multiplier are in plex prices in Trois-Rivières.
How to read these figures
"Active listings" counts the income properties (2 to 5 unit plexes) for sale on Centris at the end of each month; we publish the average of the year's twelve month-ends (nine in 2026) and the last month's value. "New listings" adds up the year's listings, including relistings after a withdrawal. Plex sales come from the same database (number of sales in Trois-Rivières). Absorption divides sales by the same year's new listings; months of inventory divide plexes for sale by monthly sales. The "houses" and "condos" columns repeat the same calculation for single-family homes in Trois-Rivières and condominiums in Trois-Rivières.
