Home prices in Parcours du Cerf have risen substantially since 2016, especially for semi-
detached homes and condominiums. Yet median prices tell only part of the story: a property’s
street, condition and competing listings at the time of sale can make a meaningful difference. As
a broker who lives in the neighbourhood, I follow these differences closely to help my
neighbours make informed decisions.
The supplied Centris/Matrix charts show median sale prices from January 2016 through August
2026. The data on sales, active listings and time on market begin in January 2021. The 2026
figures cover only eight months, and the prices below are rounded readings of charts, not
valuations of individual homes.
* January through August 2026. These percentages compare the medians of properties sold in
two periods; they do not measure the guaranteed gain on the same home. Over roughly ten
years and eight months, they imply approximate compound annual rates of 6.8%, 5.8%, 5.3%
and 2.9%, respectively.
Semi-detached homes show the largest percentage increase
The median for semi-detached homes rose from approximately $340,000 to $685,000, nearly
doubling. This is the largest percentage increase among the four categories. The market is small,
however: the charts record only four sales from January through August 2026. A few
transactions can therefore shift the annual median considerably.
Condominiums gain value while buyers gain choices
The condominium median rose from approximately $235,000 in 2016 to $430,000 in 2026, an
increase of about 83%. This series draws on many more properties than the semi-detached or
bungalow categories. Since 2025, the charts also show more condos for sale: active inventory
approached 50 listings in early 2026, then declined to around 32 in August. Average time on
market rose from about 21 days in 2021 to 43 days in 2026. Buyers have more opportunity to
compare properties, making price and presentation particularly important for sellers.
The median for two-storey detached homes exceeds one million dollars
For two-storey detached houses, the median increased from approximately $645,000 to $1.12
million, or about 74%. Yearly changes also reflect the kinds of homes that happened to sell. A
renovated home overlooking the golf course cannot be compared directly with a similarly sized
home that needs work. The chart indicates an average of about 43 days on market in 2026; this
does not predict how long any particular home will take to sell.
Bungalow figures require particular care
The median for detached bungalows increased from approximately $985,000 to $1.335 million, a
difference of about 36%. This category has few sales, including seven from January through
August 2026 according to the charts. A change in the median between 2025 and 2026 may reflect
the mix of homes sold; it does not establish that a particular home lost value. Individual
comparable sales are especially important in this segment.
Is now a good time to sell or buy
For an owner considering a sale, values remain high compared with 2016. The market appears
more selective, particularly for condos, where supply has increased and selling times have
lengthened. Careful preparation and an asking price grounded in recent sales and current
competition can make a difference. There is no single ideal time for everyone: the answer also
depends on the property and the seller’s plans.
For a buyer, more choice in some segments can mean time to visit, assess a home’s condition
and negotiate on the facts. It does not establish that prices are about to fall across the
neighbourhood. I recommend assessing each home against comparable sales and expected
repairs, then deciding in light of your needs and how long you intend to own it.
A professional assessment goes beyond neighbourhood statistics
Even within one neighbourhood, value can vary from one area to another, from street to street
and sometimes between neighbours. I consider the construction date, house and lot size, floor
plan, golf course or green-space views, condition of major components, necessary repairs, and
the age and quality of renovations. I also review recent comparable sales and the properties
listed at the same time: these are the homes buyers can actually visit and compare.
Presentation affects buyer interest, too. Depending on the home, decluttering, decor changes,
minor repairs or home staging may help. Before an owner undertakes an expensive renovation,
I can help assess whether its likely effect on the sale justifies the cost. What makes sense for one
property may not make sense for another.
We build the selling strategy together
An estate sale, a separation, an urgent move or a decision to leave a large home for a condo or
apartment each calls for a different approach. Some owners have time to wait; others need to
coordinate several steps within a specific period. I first seek to understand their circumstances,
priorities and timeline, then recommend a strategy.
Selling a home is a team effort. I bring the data, market analysis and recommendations; the
owner brings knowledge of the home and makes the decisions, including the asking price. After
the home is listed, we continue to monitor new listings, sales and buyer feedback together and
adjust the strategy when appropriate.
