Quebec City Real Estate Trends 2025: What Buyers and Renters Need to Know
The real estate market in Quebec City is changing fast, driven by various social and economic factors. According to a 2023 report by the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA), these changes are significantly influencing housing demand and market behavior. A comprehensive analysis by CREA indicates that urban housing prices have risen by 15% over the past year, underscoring the growing competition and demand within the market. This trend is corroborated by Statistics Canada, which reports that urban migration has increased by 12% in the past two years, further fueling demand.
CREA anticipates that prices may rise another 10% by 2025, making it imperative for potential buyers to act quickly. This projection aligns with historical data from the Quebec Real Estate Board, which suggests that similar growth patterns have occurred in previous economic cycles.

In addition, we consult with economic experts, including those at the Bank of Canada, to better understand economic indicators that impact real estate, such as interest rates and employment statistics. For instance, as of October 2023, the Bank of Canada has indicated a potential stabilization in interest rates, which could influence buyer behavior in the coming years.
We have identified significant trends such as remote work, sustainability, and changing lifestyle preferences. A recent study from the Brookings Institution highlights that urban housing demand is increasingly being shaped by these factors, emphasizing the importance of adapting to new living requirements. Furthermore, a survey conducted by Ipsos Group found that 68% of Canadians now prioritize sustainable living options when considering real estate investments, reflecting a shift in consumer values.
