MARKET ANALYSIS

Ville-Marie market insights

A residential market dominated by condos, where supply is growing while sales slow and the median condo price edges down slightly.

Q2 2026 market snapshot

These figures should be interpreted in light of the property's type, condition, street and particular features — a sector-wide statistic never replaces an individual valuation.

Our reading of the market

In the second quarter of 2026, 479 residential properties sold in Ville-Marie, a 7% decline compared with the same quarter last year — a trend confirmed over the trailing four quarters (-2%). Active listings grew 4% this quarter (+9% over the trailing four quarters), a sign of growing supply. The market is overwhelmingly made up of condos (432 quarterly sales, versus only 20 single-family homes): their median price ($465,000) fell 1% year over year, and 3% over the trailing four quarters, with a median days-on-market of 89 days (+12 days). On the plex side, this quarter's sales sample is too small for a reliable statistic, but the trailing four-quarter median price ($1,019,250) is up 7%.

Frequently asked questions

Market value depends on comparable sales, location, condition, property features and current market conditions. An online estimate is a starting point; a complete analysis may require a consultation and property visit.

Timing depends on the market as well as your next move, timeline, financing and property condition. A consultation helps compare scenarios instead of relying on seasonality alone.

The process includes market analysis, pricing, preparation recommendations suited to the area's architectural style, marketing assets and launch planning. Exact details are confirmed together in the listing agreement.

Quebec rules strictly govern representation and generally prohibit a residential broker from representing both a buyer and a seller who are each bound by brokerage contracts in the same transaction. A specific situation should be explained in accordance with OACIQ rules.

The team serves Greater Montreal, with an initial strategic and editorial focus on Town of Mount Royal, Outremont, Westmount and central Montreal neighbourhoods.
