X-ray of Sainte-Thérèse: what 2,000 transactions taught me about your neighbourhood.

By Alain Brunelle, residential real estate broker · 12 min read · Updated April 2026

In Sainte-Thérèse, the difference between selling fast and selling well comes down to three numbers no one gives you — except one local real estate broker who has 33 years of transactions in the area. This interactive guide puts those numbers on the table, street by street, district by district, with the tools to interrogate them.

1. The market at a glance — 5 years of Sainte-Thérèse

Since 2021, the median single-family price in Sainte-Thérèse has risen by 38,6 %, despite the 2023 mortgage tightening. The trajectory is nothing like a plateau — it's a disciplined climb, driven by two engines: land scarcity in Vieux-Village and steady demand from young families fleeing Laval prices.

2. The three districts — decoded

Sainte-Thérèse is not a city, it's three distinct markets. A triplex in Vieux-Village doesn't sell like a bungalow in En-Bas. Here's the comparison I use, updated from my latest listings and 2026 APCIQ transactions.

3. Is your property well positioned? (interactive tool)

The classic trap of marketing in Sainte-Thérèse: positioning the price by comparing to the neighbouring municipality rather than to your own street. The result — + 13 days of waiting, − 2.4% on the final price. Here's the quick tool I use to estimate the gap between your target price and the reality of the district.

4. Why work with Alain Brunelle in Sainte-Thérèse

Here's what a broker who has practised exclusively on the North Shore since 1992 concretely brings.

  • On-the-ground knowledge — every district of Sainte-Thérèse has its own dynamic. Vieux-Village, En-Haut and En-Bas position differently: price, buyer profile, timelines. I know these nuances because I work here every day.
  • Network of active North Shore buyers — a listing is shared with my network before the Centris publication, which usually generates quick private showings.
  • Complete marketing — HDR photography, drone video, floor plan, 360° virtual tour, optimized Centris listing. Included in the mandate, not as an extra.
  • Street-by-street comparative analysis — I position your property on its exact side of the street, not on the municipal average that blurs the gaps.
  • RE/MAX CRYSTAL team — a network of partner brokers, photographers, stagers and notaries.

My performance statistics (median timeline, sold/asking ratio) are available on request, backed by my 2024-2025 transaction data.

“An average broker gives you a price. A real estate broker who knows your street gives you the three scenarios — and the ‘why’ of each.”— Alain Brunelle, 33 years in Sainte-Thérèse

5. What I'm watching right now — April 2026

Sainte-Thérèse's seasonality is underestimated. Unlike Blainville, the sales peak is early May, not late April. Main reason: Vieux-Village draws many buyers from Laval and Montreal who visit after the Easter break.

  • New-condo inventory declining: 3 projects delivered, nothing new announced for 2026-2027 in Vieux-Village → upward pressure within 18 months.
  • First-time-buyer demand in En-Bas: strong, but capped by the stress test at ~5.25%. Estimated ceiling of $520K for a median household.
  • Seller window optimal: April 28 — June 20. Beyond that, downward pressure measured historically at -1.8% per month.

Your Sainte-Thérèse property deserves the finest analysis of its market.

6. FAQ — Sainte-Thérèse in 2026

How to choose your real estate broker in Sainte-Thérèse?

The question isn't who is the best in absolute terms, but who is the right real estate broker for your property and your exact neighbourhood. The criteria that matter: number of transactions in your district (not across the whole city), median timeline on recent listings, sold/asking ratio, and the quality of the marketing strategy. My numbers: 33 years in Sainte-Thérèse, 3,000+ transactions, Top 5% RE/MAX Québec for 20 years, 99.2% ratio, 28-day median timeline.

What is the average home price in Sainte-Thérèse?

$582,000 median single-family price in 2026. But the median sells nothing : what sells is the right price for your street, with your build year, your renovations. Possible spread: ± $80,000 depending on the district.

Sainte-Thérèse or Blainville?

Sainte-Thérèse offers Vieux-Village character you won't find in Blainville, with an entry ticket 12% lower. Blainville offers larger lots and statistically better-rated schools. For families with young children, Blainville. For younger or more urban buyers, Sainte-Thérèse.
