In shortA house or plex in Ahuntsic-Cartierville can be sold as it stands, with no listing and no showings. The borough is in Montreal, so the buyer pays Montreal’s transfer duties.
Ahuntsic-Cartierville runs along the Rivière des Prairies, from Sault-au-Récollet in the east to Cartierville in the west. It is a borough of houses and plexes more than towers: in the third quarter of 2026, Centris counted 44 single-family sales and 71 plex sales there, against 70 condos. If you want to sell a house here quickly and as it is, Bruce Malcolm buys directly, with no listing and no showings.
What are houses selling for in Ahuntsic-Cartierville right now?
Centris, the QPAREB listing system, publishes borough figures every quarter. For July to September 2026 it reports a single-family median of $917,500 in Ahuntsic-Cartierville, flat against the same quarter of 2025, with an average of 31 days on market. Plexes of 2 to 5 units sold at a median of $935,000 (up 6%), and plex sales jumped 54% to 71.
The supply side moved faster than sales. Active residential listings in the borough rose 40% year over year, to 469, and new listings rose 24%. More choice for buyers usually means more time and more negotiation for sellers. A median is the middle of what sold that quarter, not the value of your address: a bungalow near boulevard Gouin and a duplex near the Henri-Bourassa metro are different properties.
Which parts of the borough are we talking about?
The borough’s four electoral districts are Ahuntsic, Bordeaux-Cartierville, Saint-Sulpice and Sault-au-Récollet. The river, boulevard Gouin and the Île-de-la-Visitation nature park are the north edge; boulevard Henri-Bourassa, the Henri-Bourassa and Sauvé metro stations and the Ahuntsic and Bois-de-Boulogne train stations are how most people move. Many sellers here are long-time owners of post-war houses or of a duplex they lived in for decades, which is often an estate or a downsizing rather than a quick turnover.
How much is the welcome tax on an Ahuntsic-Cartierville house?
The buyer pays the transfer duties, but they shape what buyers can offer. Ahuntsic-Cartierville is part of the City of Montreal, so the 2026 Montreal brackets apply: 0.5% to $62,900, 1% to $315,000, 1.5% to $552,300, 2% to $1,104,700, 2.5% to $2,136,500, 3.5% to $3,113,000 and 4% above. At the borough median of $917,500, that works out to about $13,699. The duties are calculated on the highest of the price paid, the value stated in the deed and the roll value multiplied by the comparative factor (1.00 in 2026).

This is general information about how a sale usually works in Quebec. It is not legal, tax or financial advice, and it is not a promise about your price or your date. A notary — and, if your file needs it, a lawyer or a licensed insolvency trustee — applies the rules to your situation. Sending an address does not commit you to sell.
