Montreal-area home sales fell 6.8 per cent on a year-over-year basis in May as the province’s real estate board says median prices continued to rise.

The Quebec Professional Association of Real Estate Brokers said 4,623 residential properties changed hands throughout the month in the Montreal census metropolitan area, down from 4,962 in May 2025.

All property categories recorded a decline in sales, but levels were consistent with the average for the previous 10 years, the board said.
