Asked in 2021, owners gave a median value of $400,000; averaged, their homes came to $409,931. An owner’s figure, not a sale: the census of May 2021 asked what each home would fetch. No sales are published for towns in Quebec, Pont-Viau included, so owners’ values are the measure. The municipal roll for 2025 values single-family homes at a median $565,000, at July 1, 2023 prices. Pont-Viau shares its property-roll values and building permits numbers with the rest of the city of Laval.
