Plex negotiation by price range · Drummondville · 2026
How much a plex is negotiated in Drummondville depending on its price: the sold-to-asking ratio by bracket over the past twelve months, the bracket negotiated the most, the one where asking price or more is paid, the comparison with houses and condos, and what it changes for the seller and the investor. Centris sales, nothing estimated.
In Drummondville, over the past 12 months (October 2025 to September 2026), plexes sold at 98.6% of asking price on a sales-weighted average, 1.4 point below asking price. But the margin depends on the price: $300,000 to $500,000, 99.6% (52 sales); $500,000 to $800,000, 98.2% (47 sales); $800,000 to $1M, 98% (15 sales); $1M and up, 97% (15 sales). Buyers negotiate the most in the $1M and up bracket (3 points below asking price) and the least in the $300,000 to $500,000 bracket (0.4 point below asking price): a 2.6-point gap. No bracket sells at asking or above in Drummondville: the buyer gets a margin everywhere, thin or wide depending on the price. It is in line with the 23 cities tracked (median gap 3 points).

What it changes for selling or buying in Drummondville
In Drummondville, the margin follows the price: $300,000 to $500,000 at 99.6%, $500,000 to $800,000 at 98.2%, $800,000 to $1M at 98%, $1M and up at 97%. The most negotiated bracket ($1M and up) is where buyers have the choice or the time; the firmest ($300,000 to $500,000) is where they are many for few listings. For a seller, the bracket's ratio says how much margin to keep between the asking price and the price they would accept; for a buyer, it says whether an offer below asking is a local habit or a risk. The ratio year by year, all ranges combined, is in plex sold over asking in Drummondville, ten years; days on market by price bracket, in plex days on market by price in Drummondville.
Advice for the seller in Drummondville
- Set the asking price on comparable sales in your bracket, not on inventory: in Drummondville, the $300,000 to $500,000 bracket gets 99.6% of asking, the $1M and up bracket 97%. An asking price above comparables draws even lower offers, or none.
- No bracket sells at asking in Drummondville: build the margin into the asking price, and decide the floor in advance rather than discovering it in front of the first offer.
- Look at the fine range, not only the bracket: $300,000 to $350,000 is negotiated at 96%, $400,000 to $450,000 at 100%. Listings that do not sell are not in this ratio: see plexes that do not sell in Drummondville.
Advice for the buyer in Drummondville
- In the $1M and up bracket, an offer below asking is the norm in Drummondville (3 points below asking price on average): start below the price and let the seller come to you.
- Even in the firmest bracket ($300,000 to $500,000, 99.6%), there is a margin: aim for the price of comparables rather than the asking price.
- The ratio compares to the last asking price, not the original one: a plex that cut its price before selling shows at 98% or 99% even if the buyer paid well under the first listed price. The price-cut history is in the Centris listing; days on market by bracket are in plex days on market by price in Drummondville.
How to read these figures
One Centris (Matrix) query per city: Income property category, past-12-months period, grouping by sale price, measure sold price vs asking price (ratio) and number of sales by range, whole municipality of Drummondville, harvested October 13, 2026. The Matrix ratio is an integer (rounded to the percent) per range; the bracket's ratio is the average of its ranges' ratios weighted by their sales, which gives it one decimal. A range is published only with at least 5 sales, and only published ranges enter the bracket's ratio: a single sale at an unusual price does not move the average.
