In the last five years in Quebec, between 2004 and 2008 included, more than 252 911 properties were sold, this represents an average of 50 582 sales per year.

For the county of Argenteuil, property sales for the same period were 1719 so the average is 344 annual sales. Argenteuil's part in these sales is .7% of the Quebec market.

I'm concentrating only on the sale of homes with a price range of between 100 000$ and 150 000$, because my goal is to give you a general view of the real estate market and this should be enough to help you in your quest to either sale or buy a home, this is not meant to be an exhaustive market study.

In the last five years in Quebec 63643 properties were sold in this particular price range, an average of 12 729 annual sales. The sale of homes with a price range of between 100 000$ and 150 000$ represents 25% of the market.  

For the county of Argenteuil, property sales for the same period were 589 so the average is 118 annual sales. Argenteuil's part in these sales for homes with a price range of between 100 000$ and 150 000$ represents 34% of the market, that is 9% higher than the provincial average.  

You know that since 2004 it is much more difficult to find a reasonably good home for less than 100 000$, there are some out there and when one appears on the market you need to be really quick to snatch it up!

If you are considering selling your home and you think that it's situated in the 100 000$ and 150 000$ price range you will certainly be seeing lots of action and the possibility of a relatively quick sale (1 to 6 months) is good.

If your home is worth more than 150 000$ patience will be required, using creative marketing methods, potential buyers will be found.
