Selling · Ahuntsic-Cartierville · QPAREB Q2 2026 figures
Ahuntsic sells high but slowly: 57 days for a $926,000 house. Here are the 2026 figures by sector, the pricing method and the calendar to avoid joining the 102 houses that wait.
Selling a house in Ahuntsic-Cartierville in 2026 means selling in a slow seller's market: a $926,000 median for the single-family home in the second quarter (+7 % year over year, +32 % in five years), but 57 days on market, the longest among the residential boroughs of the island's north, with 102 houses active. The market stays with the seller in every range (4.6 months of inventory above $630,000), but the buyer of a house near a million takes their time and compares Sault-au-Récollet, Bordeaux and Cartierville, which do not sell at the same price. The condo ($412,500, 48 days, 212 active) follows its own logic. The method: the closed sales of the street, a fair price from day one, a full launch that also targets Laval, where many buyers come from.
Ahuntsic-Cartierville sold its median house for $926,000 in the second quarter of 2026, +7 % year over year and +32 % in five years, the island's strongest rise after Rosemont, but in 57 days, against 41 for the whole island. Supply is reasonable (102 houses active) and the market technically stays with the seller in every range, but the high price and the variety of the stock (post-war cottages, Cartierville bungalows, prestige homes in Sault-au-Récollet, converted plexes) lengthen the buyer's decision. In August, the island sold for $820,000 in 57 days. For a seller, the difference between 40 and 90 days comes down to the day-one price: an overpriced house in Ahuntsic sits, a house priced at its street's level receives its offers within three weeks.

Sault-au-Récollet, around boulevard Gouin, Île de la Visitation and the Rivière des Prairies, is the most expensive sector: older homes, waterfront properties and prestige cottages, where the price is set on the few comparable sales and where the certificate of location (shoreline strip) is part of the file. Central Ahuntsic (Fleury, Henri-Bourassa, Ahuntsic park) lines up post-war cottages and duplexes, the market's volume, where condition and the basement make the gap. Bordeaux and Cartierville, to the west towards the Lachapelle bridge, offer 1950s to 1970s bungalows and more modest homes, the borough's entry level, with the Henri-Bourassa metro and the Bois-de-Boulogne station as arguments. Our pages real estate broker in Ahuntsic-Cartierville and living in Ahuntsic-Cartierville detail the sectors.
The sector median tells you where the market sits, not what your house is worth. Our valuation starts from the closed sales of the last 60 to 90 days on your street and the streets next to it (same type, same era, same lot), adjusts for what differs (finished basement, garage, pool, roof, windows, kitchen), then looks at what is for sale right now at the same price: that is your real competition. Pricing 3 % too high in a 30-day market costs you the first weekend, when viewings concentrate; pricing right produces multiple offers. We show you the comparables, not a promise.

57 days in median in the second quarter of 2026, the longest among the residential boroughs of the island's north; 48 days for a condo. A house priced at its street's level with a full launch receives its offers within three weeks; an overpriced house exceeds 90 days.
Spring (March to June) concentrates buyers of family homes; September and October are the second peak. For a Sault-au-Récollet waterfront home, May and June show the lot at its best.
Visible low-cost work (paint, floors, refreshed kitchen) pays back; in a $926,000 market, the buyer pays for move-in-ready and negotiates hard on original condition. Big work (roof, windows, foundations of a post-war cottage) negotiates better as a price adjustment. We put numbers on both options.
The broker's compensation, agreed in the brokerage contract and payable at the sale; the certificate of location if outdated ($1,200 to $2,500); the mortgage penalty if you break a term (three months of interest or the interest rate differential); the notary's fees for the discharge. Our free valuation puts numbers on all of it before you decide.
