The average covers every home type sold, so neighbourhoods with more condos rank lower than their detached prices would put them: each neighbourhood's report breaks its prices down. The prices are for the whole quarter, from the board's quarterly barometer: its monthly report covers only the larger regions. The yearly change compares the price with the same quarter a year earlier. From our Montreal report, built from the statistics of the Quebec Professional Association of Real Estate Brokers (QPAREB).
