The Longueuil mortgage market in 2026
As of 2026, the average home price in Longueuil is roughly $485,000 (Quebec, population ~265k). Longueuil offers south-shore affordability with quick Montreal access, drawing young families and first-time buyers to Saint-Hubert and Greenfield Park. Detached and semi value relative to the island keeps the down-payment math approachable here. At that price, 20% down is about $97,000, and you’d need roughly $98,000 in household income to qualify at the stress-test rate of 7.04% — the greater of your contract rate + 2% or 5.25%. The legal minimum down here is $24,250 (5.0%) — 5% on the first $500,000 plus 10% on the balance — with a default-insurance premium financed on top: a smaller cash outlay now for a slightly higher monthly payment. We model your exact Longueuil numbers — price band, down payment, and the stress test — before you ever write an offer.
