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 Val-d'Or). Absorption divides sales by the same year's new listings; months of inventory divide plexes for sale by monthly sales.
