A median of $400,000 and a mean of $560,500: that is how owners valued their homes in 2021. There is no public record of sale prices in Quebec, which leaves the census value as the guide for Lac-Brome. The town’s assessors, on the 2025 roll, put the median house at $576,300 (market of July 1, 2023).
What Lac-Brome’s homes are worth, two ways
Two sources, each set against Quebec’s towns only: provinces measure value differently, so they don’t line up across borders. Owners gave those values at the May 2021 census; they are estimates, and older than today’s prices.
