The median price of a house in La Prairie is $740,000 in 2026 to date (165 sales from January to September) against $716,500 in 2025 (202 sales), +3.3%.

Months of inventory and verdict: a balanced market
Rule: under 4 months of inventory = seller's market, 4 to 6 months = balanced market, over 6 months = buyer's market. Calculation in La Prairie: 86 active houses in September ÷ (165 sales in 2026 ÷ 9 months = 18.3 sales a month) = 4.7 months. Verdict: a balanced market. It is an approximation: 2026 sales stop on September 16 and are divided by nine full months, which nudges the result slightly upward; the actual pace of September may differ from the year's average. La Prairie ranks 36th of 50, from the tightest market to the slowest (median of cities: 3.9 months).
What it changes for selling in La Prairie
In La Prairie, the market no longer leans clearly: 4.7 months of inventory, between 4 and 6 months, with 86 active houses and 18 days of median days on market. Days on market have shortened since June, but inventory keeps the market balanced: a seller has to price right from the first day, because buyers compare 86 houses and the 99% ratio shows they no longer pay above asking. The first two weeks decide: a house with no offer after fifteen days is listed too high for this market.
What it changes for buying in La Prairie
To buy in La Prairie, this is when both sides meet: there is choice (86 active houses), time to visit without rushing, and a margin for negotiation that exists but stays thin (99% of asking in median). An offer conditional on inspection and financing is accepted again; an offer well below asking, not yet.
How to read these figures
The four columns of the table are read together: days on market lengthening while inventory rises is a market loosening; days on market lengthening while inventory is flat is often an asking price set too high. The sold ÷ asking ratio says whether the buyer pays the listed price (100%), above it (bidding) or below it (negotiation).
