The past twelve months in Sept-Îles, month by month

Single-family category, municipality of Sept-Îles, Centris (Matrix), read September 16, 2026. September 2026: data from September 1 to 16 (month in progress). Days on market = days between listing and accepted offer, median of the month's sales; ratio = sold price ÷ asking price, median.

What the twelve months say

• Days on market: the fastest of the twelve months was February 2026 (8 days), the slowest January 2026 (30 days); median of the twelve months, 16 days. September (19 days) is above the twelve-month median.
• Inventory: 43 active houses at the low (December 2025), 69 at the peak (May 2026). September, at 63, sits between the two.
• New listings: 238 houses put up for sale from October 2025 to August 2026 (eleven full months), the busiest month being May 2026 (33) and the quietest February 2026 (14). August (25) is above June (20); September (13) covers only the first 16 days of the month.
• Price: houses sold at 98% of asking in September, as in June; over the twelve months, 1 of 12 months closed above asking (ratio of 100% or more), the highest in March 2026 (100%). The median price of a house in Sept-Îles is $275,000 in 2026 to date (155 sales from January to September) against $277,500 in 2025 (212 sales), -0.9%.
• Across the 50 cities tracked, the September median is 16 days (June: 14 days; October 2025: 12 days); it lengthened since June in 30 cities and doubled in 7. September inventory is higher than June in 39 cities and higher than October 2025 in 44; it is at its twelve-month peak in 24 cities. 26 cities are in a seller's market, 20 in a balanced market, 4 in a buyer's market.

Months of inventory and verdict: a seller's market

Rule: under 4 months of inventory = seller's market, 4 to 6 months = balanced market, over 6 months = buyer's market. Calculation in Sept-Îles: 63 active houses in September ÷ (155 sales in 2026 ÷ 9 months = 17.2 sales a month) = 3.7 months. Verdict: a seller's 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. Sept-Îles ranks 22nd of 50, from the tightest market to the slowest (median of cities: 3.9 months).

What it changes for selling in Sept-Îles

The market still belongs to the seller in Sept-Îles: 19 days to sell and 3.7 months of inventory. But it is slowing: days on market gained 3 days since June and there are 5% more active houses. A seller does not have to give the house away, but the price has to be that of the past few weeks' sales, not the spring's: a house listed at June's price waits, and the 98% ratio says buyers pay the asking price when it is right, not above it.

What it changes for buying in Sept-Îles

To buy in Sept-Îles, inventory is still short (63 active houses for about 17.2 sales a month): get financing in place before visiting, and make a complete offer as soon as the right house comes out, because it goes in 19 days in median. Inventory has been rising since June, which gives a little more choice than in the spring, not yet bargaining power.
