Plex: sold vs asking · Rouyn-Noranda · Centris 2016-2026
Do plexes in Rouyn-Noranda sell at asking, over or under, and since when? The sale ÷ asking price ratio per year since 2016, the ratio on the original price to see price cuts, houses alongside, and the gap translated into dollars on the median plex. Centris figures, not estimates.
In Rouyn-Noranda, a plex sold on average at 100% of its asking price in 2026 (January to September), that is at the asking price: one of the tightest plex markets among the 23 cities tracked (median 98%). In 2016 it was 96%; at the peak, 2026, 100%, the asking price was met. A house in Rouyn-Noranda sells at 99% of its asking price in 2026: a rare case, plexes are negotiated less than houses here.

- Peak: 2026 (100%); trough: 2017 (94%). The average plex sale price never exceeded the asking price in Rouyn-Noranda, even in 2021-2022: the plex frenzy played out in speed and the end of negotiation, not in bidding wars.

- The return of high rates: 98% in 2021, 97% in 2023 (-1 points), 100% in 2026. Negotiation is back on plexes, but at a tighter level than in 2016.
- Asking price versus original price: the gap between the two ratios (2 points in 2016, 2 in 2026) measures the price cuts made before the sale. As many price cuts along the way as in 2016.

What it changes when selling or buying a plex in Rouyn-Noranda
At 100% of asking, Rouyn-Noranda is a city where a well-priced plex goes without a discount: there is almost no margin between the listed price and the paid price. For a seller, that means listing at the price the rents justify, not above it to "leave room": the room does not exist, and an overpriced building expires while its neighbours sell. For a buyer, an offer 10% under asking is a lost offer; negotiation plays out on the closing date, the leases to renew and the work to plan. The same ratio for houses is in sold over asking in Rouyn-Noranda and for condos in condo sold over asking in Rouyn-Noranda; the plexes that expire without a sale are counted in plexes that do not sell in Rouyn-Noranda.
How to read these figures
Two ratios from the same Centris query, same settings: Income property category, whole municipality, by year over ten years. The first compares the sale price to the asking price in force at the sale; the second, to the listing's original price. The gap between the two is the trace of price cuts along the way: the wider it is, the more sellers had to back down before selling. The ratios are averages of ratios, not a ratio of averages, and Matrix rounds them to the point: a one-point difference between two years is noise, a three-point difference is a market shift. The house and condo columns apply the same definition to single-family homes and condominiums; buildings of 6 units and more are commercial and are not included.
Frequently asked questions
Do plexes sell over asking in Rouyn-Noranda?
On average, no: 100% of asking in 2026 (Jan. to Sep.), or the asking price met, with bidding wars and discounts offsetting each other. Plexes have never exceeded their asking price on average in Rouyn-Noranda since 2016.
Are plexes negotiated more than houses in Rouyn-Noranda?
Not here: houses sell at 99% of asking in 2026 and plexes at 100%. Rouyn-Noranda is one of the cities where plexes are not negotiated more than houses.
What is the difference between asking price and original price?
The asking price is the one listed at the time of sale; the original price is the one from the listing's first day. When the two ratios differ (2 points in 2026 in Rouyn-Noranda), sellers cut their price before selling. For a buyer, a plex whose price has already dropped is a seller who has started to move.
