My take on Masson-Angers

What I look at in Masson-Angers: I compare a new home with other new homes, and a resale with other resales. The warranty and the delivery date are not the same.

In Q3 2026, the Buckingham/Masson-Angers sector had 47% more active single-family listings than a year earlier, and single-family sales were down 23% (QPAREB, Centris data).

My advice to buyers considering Masson-Angers: compare Masson and Angers carefully before deciding, because they behave like two different markets. If you're targeting new construction, check the builder and the delivery timelines, and negotiate inclusions. My advice to owners thinking about selling: your price should reflect your sub-sector and the competing supply of new builds, not a generic neighbourhood average.

FAQ

Questions about Masson-Angers

Updated · Market figures: QPAREB, Q3 2026

Les Promenades Gatineau are 28 to 33 km away by road depending on the route, and downtown Ottawa about 36 km. Drive time depends on the hour and the bridge you take.

Masson-Angers is part of QPAREB's Buckingham/Masson-Angers sector. In Q3 2026, the median single-family price there was $395,000, the lowest of the four sectors of the city of Gatineau (Centris data). Prices then vary with type, year of construction and sub-sector: I'll show you the recent comparable sales.

It depends on the homes you compare. Two official reference points: Ottawa's single-family benchmark price was $705,100 in September 2026 (Ottawa Real Estate Board, MLS® HPI). The median single-family price was $395,000 in Q3 2026 in QPAREB's Buckingham/Masson-Angers sector. These two figures aren't the same measure (benchmark price vs. median) and don't cover the same period, so for a real comparison I put similar properties side by side. Property taxes and Quebec-specific costs should also be factored into your decision.

Yes, subject to eligibility for English instruction (certificate of eligibility). The Western Quebec School Board has Buckingham Elementary in Buckingham and Greater Gatineau Elementary in the Gatineau sector.
