By Robert Frank<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

High-end housing is fetching premium prices. Single family homes in Laval sold for an average $319,042 during the past twelve months, up two per cent from the same period the year before, the Quebec Federation of Real Estate Boards (QFREB) reported.<\/p>\n

The median price, in contrast, remained flat at $290,000, highlighting the popularity of luxury properties in Laval.<\/p>\n

Mainstream demand drove plex sales though. It pushed the median price for the multi-residential buildings up five per cent to $425,000, bringing it nearly in line with the average price which rose more slowly by three per cent to $427,036.<\/p>\n

On average it took 89 days (up nine days) to sell a single-family home and 120 days (up 15 days) to sell a condo. Laval plexes again bucked the trend by dropping three days to 97, down from the 100 days that it took on average to sell one, in the year before.<\/p>\n

Overall, QFREB concluded that the market for single-family homes remains balanced, while plexes are a buyer\u2019s market and condos even more so.<\/p>\n

A breakdown by price, though, showed that single-family homes are a seller\u2019s market up to $300,000, and that beyond $350,000, are a buyer\u2019s market.<\/p>\n

Varies by district<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Single-family homes in Sainte Doroth\u00e9e and Laval sur le Lac saw the biggest jump where the median price rose six per cent to $364,250. Mirroring the overall Laval trend, the average price climbed even faster, spiking eight per cent to reach $405,895 during the past twelve months.<\/p>\n

For high-end condos sellers, Duvernay was the place to be. Over the past year, the average price spiked eight per cent to $246,637, while the median prices stayed flat at $228,500. Single-family Duvernay homes barely budged. The median price was up just one per cent\u00a0 to $338,000. It only became a buyer\u2019s market once prices passed the $400,000 mark.<\/p>\n

Northwestern Laval also fared well. The median single-family home price in Fabreville and Laval West rose four per cent to $261,000, while condos climbed three per cent to $212,000.<\/p>\n

North-central Laval posted the poorest performance. The median condo price sagged to $196,250 in Sainte Rose, Auteuil and Vimont, down three per cent. Single-family homes there proved to be a seller\u2019s market and performed better. The median price lifted lightly by two per cent to $300,000. QFREB\u2019s more detailed breakdown showed that it didn\u2019t become a buyer\u2019s market until prices surpassed $450,000.<\/p>\n

Single-family homes sagged more slightly in Downtown Laval, QFREB\u2019s term for Chomedey, Laval des Rapides and Pont Viau, where the median price fell one per cent to $292,000. Pricewise, it remained a seller\u2019s market only until the $275,000 mark. The median condo price there remained flat at $215,000.<\/p>\n
