Detached house on a quiet residential street, the kind of property Bruce Malcolm buys in the Town of Mount Royal, along with condos

To sell a house or condo fast in the Town of Mount Royal (TMR), you can skip the listing: Bruce Malcolm buys directly, as it is, with no inspection, no commission and a closing date you choose. Mount Royal is its own town, reconstituted on 1 January 2006 inside the Montreal agglomeration, and it sets its own welcome tax. Over the four quarters to September 2026, TMR single-family houses sold at a median of $1,668,250, according to Centris.

What are houses and condos selling for in TMR?

For July to September 2026, Centris reports 41 residential sales in Mont-Royal, down 16% from the same quarter of 2025: 26 single-family houses, 13 condos and 2 plexes, too few for quarterly medians. One hundred and twelve new listings came on the market during the quarter, down 12%, and 163 properties were listed at quarter end, down 10%. Only 70 houses were listed at quarter end, 30% fewer than a year earlier, while 86 condos were listed, up 14%.

Over the four quarters from October 2025 to September 2026, single-family houses sold at a median of $1,668,250, down 4%, on 127 sales, averaging 82 days on market. Condos sold at a median of $618,000, up 3%, on 58 sales, also averaging 82 days. Plexes: 7 sales, too few for a median. A median is the middle of what sold, not a price for your address: a house near the Town Hall on Roosevelt Avenue is priced on its own facts.

What kind of town is Mount Royal?

The Town describes itself as a garden city of 7.43 km² with 22,396 residents (Gazette officielle du Québec, 2025), about 30 parks, more than 70 other green spaces and nearly 9,600 trees on public land. It was planned in 1912 by landscape architect Frederick Gage Todd around the Canadian Northern Railway tunnel under Mount Royal, incorporated on 21 December 1912, and designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 2008. It sits beside Autoroute 40 and Autoroute 15, with the Acadie and Namur metro stations just outside its limits and the Ville-de-Mont-Royal and Canora REM stations. Do not confuse it with the Plateau-Mont-Royal borough: TMR has its own town hall, tax bill and transfer duties.

How much is the welcome tax on a TMR house?

Mount Royal sets its own 2026 brackets at 0.5% to $62,900, 1% to $315,000, 1.5% to $630,100, 2% to $1,260,300, 2.5% to $2,437,200 and 3% above. Its upper brackets are wider than Montreal’s, and the top rate is 3%, not 4%. The base is the highest of the price paid, the price stated in the deed and the market value from the roll. At the four-quarter single-family median of $1,668,250, the duties come to about $30,365. At the four-quarter condo median of $618,000, about $7,381. The Town’s own example: a $2,500,000 base gives $51,472.50. The buyer pays this bill, but it shapes what any buyer can offer.

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.
