Selling a house in Laval in 2026: the price, the calendar and what makes the difference sector by sector

Selling · Laval · QPAREB Q2 2026 figures

Laval still sells in 30 days, but with 821 houses for sale the first weekend makes the price. Here are the 2026 figures by sector, the pricing method and the calendar.

Selling a house in Laval in 2026 means selling in a seller's market that has slowed: a $633,500 median for the single-family home in the second quarter (+4 % year over year, +36 % in five years), 30 days on market, but 821 houses active (+10 %) and a city that lost its title of shortest delay in August. The price is therefore set street by street: $547,500 in Fabreville in 24 days, $775,500 in Sainte-Dorothée in 48 days, $735,000 in Duvernay with only 77 listings. A condo ($428,000, 55 days, 614 active) calls for a different strategy than a house. The method: the closed sales of the street, a fair price from day one, a full launch on Thursday, offers on Monday.

The Laval market in 2026, from the seller's side

Laval is a seller's market that is normalizing: a $633,500 median in the second quarter of 2026, +4 % year over year after +36 % in five years, 30 days on market (36 over twelve months), and supply rising (821 houses active, +10 %). In August the median reached $642,750 (+7 %) but the delay lengthened. The condo is slower: $428,000, 55 days, 614 listings, a buyer's market between $530,000 and $630,000 downtown. For a seller, it means the well-presented house priced at its street's level receives offers the first weekend, and the house overpriced by 5 % joins the other 821.

What makes the price, sector by sector

Sainte-Rose, Vimont and Auteuil ($649,500, 27 days) and Fabreville ($547,500, 24 days) are the fastest sectors: the street's price is enough. Duvernay ($735,000, 34 days, 77 listings) and Saint-François ($552,944, +43 % in five years) sell fast for lack of supply. Chomedey and Laval-des-Rapides ($637,500, 32 days) are the market of bungalows and tower condos, where the condo negotiates between $530,000 and $630,000. Sainte-Dorothée ($775,500, 48 days) is the most expensive and the slowest, with a buyer's market above $1.12 million: the price is set on the waterfront homes that sold, not the ones listed. Our pages house prices in Laval by sector and Laval's August 2026 report detail the six sectors.

How we set the price: the method, not the median

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.

The calendar that works

  1. Weeks -6 to -4: the documents. Certificate of location (order it now if it is outdated or if anything changed: 4 to 8 weeks of lead time), seller's declaration, tax bills, invoices for work done, mortgage statement with the penalty.
  2. Weeks -3 to -1: preparation. Decluttering, small repairs, neutral paint, professional cleaning; a pre-inspection if the house is over 25 years old or has a history.
  3. Launch day, a Thursday: professional photos and video, dedicated page, Centris, targeted campaigns aimed at buyers searching your sector.
  4. The first weekend: grouped viewings, offers on Monday, negotiation of conditions (inspection, financing, occupancy date).
  5. Through to the notary: follow-up on the inspection, the financing conditions and the certificate; the sale is signed 30 to 60 days after acceptance.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to sell a house in Laval?

30 days in median in the second quarter of 2026 (24 in Fabreville, 48 in Sainte-Dorothée), 55 days for a condo. A house priced at its street's level with a full launch receives its offers the first weekend.

When is the best time to sell in Laval?

Spring (March to June) concentrates buyers, but September and October are the second peak and supply is thinner; winter sells slower but with less competition. With 821 houses active, preparation matters more than the season.

Should you renovate before selling in Laval?

Small visible work (paint, floors, refreshed kitchen, landscaping) pays back; big work (roof, windows, basement) rarely pays back 100 % and negotiates better as a price adjustment. We put numbers on both options before you decide.

What does selling cost?

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.
