The steam escaped from Laval\u2019s hitherto hotly sought-after condominium market last month, making \u00cele J\u00e9sus an outlier in the region\u2019s residential realty rebound. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe just witnessed the best month of September since 2011, in terms of residential sales,\u201d Greater Montreal Real Estate Board (GMREB) vice-chairman Diane M\u00e9nard said in a statement. <\/p>\n

However, Laval saw its sales figures head in the opposite direction. They sank by 9 per cent here during the month of September, compared to the same month a year ago, GMREB reported, Oct. 7.<\/p>\n

Until last month, Laval residential real estate had long defied economic gravity, outpacing sales and price performance throughout overall Montreal region\u2014including the North Shore, South Shore and Vaudreuil-Soulanges areas. <\/p>\n

The fall flattened figures for total sales for the first three quarters of 2014. Overall, the number of condominium sales in Laval so far this year rose by 2 per cent, which dragged Laval back into line with sales in neigbouring areas. <\/p>\n

The adjustment had a slightly smaller impact on median condo prices, which fell 7 per cent in September from $228,000 in 2013 to $212,000 in 2014. That lowered the increase in the median condo price for the year-to-date to 2 per cent, also in lockstep with the overall Montreal region\u2019s growth since Jan 1.<\/p>\n

Single-family homes fared better in September. GMREB reported a 10 per cent jump in sales, accompanied by a 3 per cent increase in median price to $289,000. Laval\u2019s single-family numbers were slightly behind of the region\u2019s 11 per cent jump in sales but ahead of its 2 per cent rise in median price to $283,750 in September. <\/p>\n

For the year so far, Laval\u2019s single-family dwelling sales were off by 1 per cent, though prices eased higher by 1 per cent, the same amount as the overall Montreal region, where the number sales fell by 2 per cent. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
