Updated October 2026 — market data from September 2026 (Centris / APCIQ)
Saint-Constant, Delson and Sainte-Catherine border one another, share the exo 14 Candiac train line and often attract the same buyers. Yet when it is time to sell, their markets behave differently. Here is what the September 2026 figures show, and what 52 transactions in these three towns since 2004 have taught me about selling well in the area.
The market at a glance (September 2026)
| Single-family | Saint-Constant | Delson | Sainte-Catherine |
|---|---|---|---|
| Median price | $610,000 | $617,500 | $576,250 |
| Sales this month | 23 | 4 | 14 |
| Homes for sale | 78 | 33 | 31 |
| Average time on market | 32 days | 64 days | 38 days |
| Sale price / asking price | 99% | 97% | 99% |
| Sale price / municipal assessment | 113% | 120% | 114% |
These figures cover a single month and, in Delson, few sales: they show a trend, not a rule. To set a price, nothing replaces an analysis of comparable sales on your own street and for your type of property.
Saint-Constant: many buyers, but plenty of choice
Saint-Constant is the largest of the three markets: 23 single-family homes sold in September, but 78 were for sale. Buyers can take their time comparing. Bungalows sold in 24 days on average, versus 43 days for two-storey homes. If yours is a two-storey home, presentation and the starting price matter even more.
Delson: a slower market where price makes the difference
In Delson, only 4 single-family homes sold in September out of 33 on the market, with an average of 64 days and a 3% gap between asking and selling price. In this context, a home listed too high risks sitting on the market and losing its appeal. Aim right from the start, based on actual sales in the neighbourhood.
Sainte-Catherine: bungalows sell fast
Sainte-Catherine shows the tightest market of the three for bungalows: 9 sales in September, in 18 days on average and at 100% of asking price. Condos are also a large share of the market (median price $380,000), making it an entry point for first-time buyers and local retirees.
The municipal assessment is not market value
In all three towns, homes sold 13% to 20% above their municipal assessment. Relying on your tax bill to set your price risks leaving money on the table. Conversely, an overly optimistic price, especially in Delson, lengthens the time on market. The right price is found in recent comparable sales.
What 52 transactions in the area have taught me
Since 2004, I have completed 24 transactions in Saint-Constant, 16 in Sainte-Catherine and 12 in Delson, most of them as the listing broker. A few lessons keep coming back:
- The train station matters. All three towns have a station on the exo 14 Candiac line to downtown Montreal. For a home within walking distance of a station, it is a selling point to highlight.
- The type of home changes everything. A bungalow and a two-storey home at the same price do not sell at the same pace: the strategy must reflect that.
- The first weeks are decisive. Buyer interest peaks right after listing: photos, price and showing availability must be ready from day one.
- Buyers compare from one town to the next. A Delson home is often compared with those in Saint-Constant and Candiac: the analysis must cover the whole area, not just the town.
