In shortA Côte-Saint-Luc house or condo can be sold as it stands, estate or tenant included. There is no listing and no showings. Côte-Saint-Luc is its own city, so the buyer pays its transfer duties: 2.5% above $800,000 and 3% above $3,000,000.

Selling a house or condo in Côte-Saint-Luc does not have to start with a listing: Bruce Malcolm buys directly, as the property stands, without an inspection or a commission, on a signing date you pick. Côte-Saint-Luc is its own city, reconstituted on 1 January 2006 within the Montreal agglomeration, and it bills its own welcome tax, with a top rate of 3%. Over the four quarters to September 2026, Centris counts 118 condo sales and 92 house sales in the city.
What are houses and condos selling for in Côte-Saint-Luc?
From July to September 2026, Centris recorded 53 residential sales in Côte-Saint-Luc, 19% fewer than in the third quarter of 2025: 28 condos, 25 single-family houses and no plexes. Neither category had enough sales for a quarterly median. Supply grew over the same months: 130 new listings came on the market, up 4%, and 177 properties were listed at the end of the quarter, up 14%, including 108 condos and 63 houses.
The medians on this page therefore come from the four quarters from October 2025 to September 2026. Single-family houses sold at a median of $969,937, up 8%, on 92 sales, down 19%, with an average of 50 days on market. Condos sold at a median of $567,812, also up 8%, on 118 sales, down 26%, averaging 75 days. Only 8 plexes changed hands in the whole period, too few for a median, and total residential sales dropped 22% to 218. A median marks the middle of the city’s sales, nothing more: a detached house and a condo with monthly fees are each priced on what they actually are.
What kind of city is Côte-Saint-Luc?
The City of Côte Saint-Luc, as it writes its own name, calls itself the third-largest municipality on the Island of Montreal: a bilingual city with a diverse, mostly English-speaking population of 37,833 residents, according to the Ministère des Affaires municipales et de l’Habitation, on 7.04 km². It counts 29 parks, an aquatic centre and the Eleanor London Public Library. Its coat of arms recalls a railroad junction and a community that lived almost entirely from farming until the end of the Second World War. The City opened the Human Rights Walkway in Pierre Elliott Trudeau Park in 2000, was among the first municipalities in Quebec to ban pesticides and to require bicycle helmets, and runs the only volunteer first responder service in the province. As a reconstituted city, it sends the municipal tax bill and the transfer-duty bill from its own city hall on Cavendish Boulevard, not from a Montreal borough office.
How much is the welcome tax in Côte-Saint-Luc?
For transfers in 2026, the City of Côte Saint-Luc applies 0.5% up to $62,900, 1% from $62,901 to $315,000, 1.5% from $315,001 to $800,000, 2.5% from $800,001 to $3,000,000 and 3% above $3,000,000. The two upper rates come from By-law 2518-2, which has applied to transfers since 1 January 2024. Montreal’s own scale, by comparison, adds a 2% step from $552,300 and climbs as high as 4%. The 2026 comparative factor in Côte-Saint-Luc is 1.00. At the four-quarter house median of $969,937, the duties come to about $14,359, against about $14,748 on Montreal’s scale. At the condo median of $567,812, they are about $6,628. The City bills the buyer, who pays in one instalment within 30 days.

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.
