What are plexes, condos and houses selling for in Mercier–Hochelaga-Maisonneuve?
For July to September 2026, Centris reports 77 plex sales (2 to 5 units) in the borough, down 23% year over year, at a median of $800,000, unchanged.

Condos made up 103 of 205 sales; condo sales fell 38% (all sales −34%), at a median of $415,000 and 43 days on market, with condo listings up 32% to 297.
Only 25 single-family houses sold in the quarter, too few for Centris to publish a median. Over the last four quarters the single-family median was $619,625 on 141 sales. Total active listings rose 24% to 545 while sales fell 34%, so a listed property now competes with more choice than a year ago. A median is the middle of what sold: a triplex near the Olympic Park and a bungalow in Mercier-Est are priced on their own facts.

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.
