Asked in 2021, owners gave a median value of $240,000; averaged, their homes came to $265,102. Treat the values as owners’ May 2021 guesses: they are self-reported, and they come from before rates went up. No sales are published for towns in Quebec, Vieux-Moulin included, so owners’ values are the measure. For property tax, the 2025 roll sets the median single-family home at $365,000, on July 1, 2023 market values. Vieux-Moulin shares its property-roll values and building permits numbers with the rest of the city of Québec.
