Sold vs asking · Drummondville · Centris 2016-2026
At what percentage of the asking price houses sell in Drummondville, year by year since 2016: the negotiation of 2016, the bidding wars of 2021, the return of rates, and what today's gap represents in dollars on a median house. Centris figures, not estimates.
In Drummondville, a house sold on average for 99% of its asking price in 2026 (January to September), that is under the asking price, in line with the 50 cities tracked (median 99%). In 2016 it was 96%; at the 2021 peak, 99%, even the frenzy did not push sales above the listed price. On the 2026 median house ($429,900), the average gap between asking and sale price represents $4,299 less. Source: Centris (Matrix), compiled September 30, 2026.

What ten years of ratios say in Drummondville
- Four markets in ten years in Drummondville: 95.8% of asking on average in 2016-2019, 98.3% during the 2020-2022 frenzy, 98% when high rates returned, 99% today.
- Peak: 2026 (99%); low: 2017 (95%). The average sale price never exceeded the asking price in Drummondville, not even in 2021: the frenzy played out in speed and in the disappearance of negotiation, not in bidding wars.
- The return of high rates: 99% in 2021, 98% in 2023 (-1 points), 99% in 2026. Negotiation is back, but at a far tighter level than in 2016.
- Price cuts before the sale: the gap between the ratio on the asking price and the ratio on the original price is 1 point in 2026 (2 in 2016, 1 in 2021). Few houses cut their price before selling.
- 2026 (Jan. to Sep.) versus 2025: 99% then 99% (stable), on 471 sales against 653 for the whole of 2025. Across the 50 cities, 9 are at 100% or more in 2026, against 40 in 2021.
- In 2016, buyers negotiated an average $6,740 under asking on a median house at $168,500; in 2026, $4,299 under that price on a house at $429,900.
What it changes when selling or buying in Drummondville
At 99% of asking, Drummondville is a market where little is negotiated: 1 or 2% on average, sometimes nothing. The seller who lists at the price of the latest sales keeps the upper hand; the buyer who offers 5% under wastes their time unless the house has been sitting for weeks. The useful signal is the delay: a house listed for over a month gets negotiated, a house listed three days ago does not. The past twelve months, listing by listing, are in how much buyers negotiate in Drummondville.
How to read these figures
Centris's ratio divides, for each closed sale of the year, the sale price by the last asking price, then averages; 100% means houses sold on average at the listed price, 105% that they sold 5% above, bidding wars included. Matrix publishes these ratios rounded to the point. The ratio on the original price divides by the first listed price: when it is lower, sellers cut their price before selling. 2026 (Jan. to Sep.) is a partial year. Our pages days on market in Drummondville and homes for sale in Drummondville read the same years from the speed and inventory side.
