In Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie, condos are the largest market: in Q3 2026 they accounted for 6 out of 10 residential sales. They are also the segment where supply grew the most over the past year. Here is what Centris figures show for the area, how they compare with the island of Montréal as a whole, and what buyers and sellers should check. Figures retrieved on November 13, 2026 from Centris (Q3 2026); co-ownership rules checked on November 6, 2026 in the Civil Code, its implementing regulation and City of Montréal pages.

At a glance

  • 125 condos sold in Q3 2026, 17% fewer than a year earlier. Over the last four quarters: 676 sales (-9%).
  • 240 condos for sale at the end of the period (active listings), up 37% year over year, compared with +12% for the island as a whole.
  • Median price of $563,200, unchanged from a year earlier; $560,475 over four quarters (+4%). On the island, the median price is $477,000.
  • Average time to sell of 40 days (+5 days), compared with 67 days on the island: Rosemont condos still sell faster than the Montréal average.
  • Since August 14, 2025, the buyer of a divided co-ownership condo must receive a certificate from the syndicate on the state of the co-ownership.

Condos: the area's largest market

In Q3 2026, Centris recorded 209 residential sales in the borough: 125 condos, 65 plexes of 2 to 5 units and 19 single-family homes. Condos therefore make up about 60% of sales, well ahead of the plex, even though the plex defines the neighbourhood's image.

The housing stock explains this. According to the 2021 Census, 20.2% of the borough's occupied dwellings are condominiums (21.9% for the City of Montréal), and 73.8% are apartments in buildings of fewer than five storeys. Buildings of five storeys or more hold only 7.8% of dwellings, compared with 16.0% for the city. In other words, many condos in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie are in small buildings, often at the scale of a plex.

What it means: in a small building, the syndicate has few co-owners. Each decision and each major expense weighs more on each owner, which is why the documents described below matter.

Prices: stable year over year, above the island average

The median price of a condo sold in Q3 2026 was $563,200, unchanged from the same quarter of 2025. Over the last four quarters it reached $560,475, up 4%. That is about 18% above the median price for the island of Montréal ($477,000 for the quarter, also stable).

For context within the area: the median plex price was $950,000 in the same quarter, about 1.7 times that of a condo, and the median single-family home price reached $1,103,250 over four quarters. Too few houses sold in the quarter for Centris to publish their quarterly median price.

What it means: a median describes the middle of the sales, not the value of a particular condo. Size, floor, parking, the building's condition and the syndicate's finances move the price far more than the area average.

More choice, fewer sales

The supply of condos rose sharply: 240 active listings in Q3 2026, 37% more than a year earlier, while sales fell 17%. On the island, condo supply rose only 12%, with sales down 15%.

At the quarter's sales pace, that is a little under 6 months of inventory in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie, compared with nearly 12 months for the island as a whole (our calculation: active listings divided by the quarter's average monthly sales). The average time to sell remains short at 40 days, but it is 5 days longer. On the island, it reached 67 days, 14 more than a year earlier.

What it means: the condo market is easing in the area, without being as slow as in the rest of the island. Buyers have more choice and more time to compare; sellers face more competition than a year ago.

If you are buying a condo: the documents to ask for

For a divided co-ownership condo, the rules changed on August 14, 2025, when the regulation completing the co-ownership reform came into force. They apply to promises to purchase accepted since that date.

  • The syndicate's certificate on the state of the co-ownership: the seller must give it to the prospective buyer, and the syndicate must provide it within 15 days of the request.
  • What the certificate contains: among other things, the contingency fund balance and the study's recommendation, the charges required and paid over 3 years, the surpluses or deficits of the last 3 financial statements, the year's budget, insurance, the highest deductible, and a summary of inspections, claims, work done and planned, and pending disputes.
  • The maintenance log and the contingency fund study, which are part of the syndicate's register. The study must be obtained at least every 5 years and cover planned work over at least 25 years. The log is reviewed at least every 5 years, or every 10 years in a small building (no more than 8 private portions or no more than 3 storeys above ground), a common case in the area.
  • The transition period: existing syndicates have until the day after the third anniversary of the regulation's coming into force, around August 15, 2028, to obtain their log and their first study. A syndicate may therefore not have them yet: ask where it stands and how the study could affect fees.

If the first study shows the contingency fund is insufficient, the law gives the syndicate up to 10 years to replenish it. For a buyer, that can mean higher fees: it is a question to ask before making an offer, not after.

Divided, undivided: why supply does not come from existing plexes

In Rosemont you will also see plexes sold as undivided co-ownership: each buyer holds a share of the building, without a separate fraction or a syndicate in the sense of divided co-ownership. The rules described above apply only to divided co-ownership. Buying an undivided share follows other rules and is often financed differently: National Bank, for example, indicates a minimum down payment of 20% for undivided co-ownership, compared with 5% for divided co-ownership, and practices vary from lender to lender. Get advice from a notary before signing.

Converting a rental building into divided condos is in principle impossible in the Montréal agglomeration. The law allows only an exemption granted by the borough council. In Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie, an exemption is possible if the applicant lives in one of the units when applying; the fees are $3,119 for the review and $1,274 per converted unit. An exemption is not an authorization: the Tribunal administratif du logement authorizes the conversion, and the tenant keeps the right to remain in the dwelling.

What it means: condo supply in the area comes mainly from existing co-ownerships and new construction, not from converting rented plexes.

If you are selling a condo

  • Ask the syndicate for the certificate as soon as you list: it has 15 days to provide it, and a serious buyer will ask for it.
  • Gather recent minutes, the maintenance log and the contingency fund study if they exist, and the year's budget.
  • With 37% more condos for sale than a year ago, the asking price and presentation matter more: compare your property with recent sales of similar condos in your part of the area, not just with the median.

Frequently asked questions

What is the median price of a condo in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie?

According to Centris, it was $563,200 in Q3 2026, unchanged from a year earlier, and $560,475 over the last four quarters (+4%). On the island of Montréal, the median condo price was $477,000 in the same quarter.

How long does it take to sell a condo in Rosemont?

The average time to sell was 40 days in Q3 2026, 5 days more than a year earlier, and 37 days over four quarters. That is an average: a well-prepared, well-priced condo can sell faster, and an overpriced one much more slowly.

Which documents should I ask for before buying a condo?

For a divided condo: the syndicate's certificate on the state of the co-ownership, the declaration of co-ownership, recent minutes, the budget, and the maintenance log and contingency fund study if they have been done. For an undivided share of a building, the undivided co-ownership agreement and a notary's advice.

Method: changes are those published by Centris, year over year. Time to sell is an average (Centris: "Moyenne de jours sur le marché"). Months of inventory and the price gap with the island are our calculations based on Centris figures.

Limitations: Centris statistics cover the whole borough; they do not separate La Petite-Patrie, Vieux-Rosemont or other parts of the area. A quarter has few sales, and the median can move from one quarter to the next without the trend changing. This article does not predict prices and does not replace advice from a notary or broker on a specific property.
