A median of $280,000 and a mean of $294,995: that is how owners valued their homes in 2021. An owner’s figure, not a sale: the census of May 2021 asked what each home would fetch. What homes sold for in Saint-Sauveur isn’t public: no sale figures are released in Quebec. The municipal roll for 2025 values single-family homes at a median $365,000, at July 1, 2023 prices. Figures for property-roll values and building permits are published for the city of Québec as a whole, not for Saint-Sauveur alone.
