Selling · Sherbrooke · QPAREB Q2 2026 figures
Seventy-six percent in five years, 23 days on market: in Sherbrooke, the seller has to set the price on the street, not on the trend. Here are the 2026 figures by sector, the method and the calendar.
Selling a house in Sherbrooke in 2026 means selling after one of Quebec's strongest rises: +76 % in five years, +7 % year over year, for a $460,000 median in the city in the second quarter, 23 days on market, 285 houses active, a seller's market in every range (5.9 months of inventory above $680,000, still the seller's). Les Nations ($491,000, 22 days, downtown, the University, Mont-Bellevue) is the most expensive sector; Brompton, Rock Forest, Saint-Élie and Deauville ($457,750, 21 days) the recent family market; Fleurimont ($430,000, +85 % in five years, the CHUS) the entry level; the outskirts ($690,500) the large lots and the lakes. The seller's trap is to extrapolate the rise: today's price is the street's closed sales. The method: the street's comparables, a fair price from day one, a full launch that also reaches Montreal, where the buyers come from.
The city of Sherbrooke sold its median house for $460,000 in the second quarter of 2026, +7 % year over year and +76 % in five years, in 23 days, with 285 active listings; the metropolitan area (with Magog and the outskirts), $490,000 in 34 days. The condo sells for $314,000 in 38 days. The market belongs to the seller in every range in the city (2.2 to 5.9 months of inventory), balanced above $710,000 in the region. Sherbrooke attracts Montreal households who work remotely, CHUS and University families, and Eastern Townships retirees: buyers come from far and also search in English in Lennoxville. For a seller, the day-one price and wide marketing make the difference between two and eight weeks.

Les Nations (downtown, the Vieux-Nord, the Université de Sherbrooke, Mont-Bellevue) sells the older brick homes, the plexes and the Vieux-Nord homes above the median, and the condos near the University; the plex is priced on its income. Rock Forest, Saint-Élie and Deauville sell the 1990s to 2025 homes on curved streets near Highway 10 and Lake Magog, the family market where the resale is compared with new construction; Brompton, the country homes. Fleurimont (the CHUS, the CEGEP, the 1960s to 1980s neighbourhoods) is the entry level and the sector that rose the most (+85 %). Lennoxville (Bishop's) sells in English, on few comparables, with a buyer's market above $700,000. The outskirts (Ascot Corner, Stoke, the lakes) sell large lots and waterfront homes in 51 days, on the file (well, septic system, shoreline strip). Our page real estate broker in Sherbrooke details 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.

23 days in median in the city in the second quarter of 2026 (21 in Rock Forest, 27 in Fleurimont, 51 in the outskirts), plus 30 to 60 days to the notary. A house priced at its street's level receives its offers the first weekend.
Spring concentrates Montreal buyers and university relocations; September is the second peak. With under 6 months of inventory everywhere in the city, winter sells too, more slowly.
Visible low-cost work pays back; in a market that rose 76 %, many buyers pay for move-in-ready and negotiate hard on original condition. Big work negotiates 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.
