## City market context

From the Saguenay market article, 22 September 2026:

The Saguenay residential market concluded 480 sales in the second quarter of 2026, a 3 per cent increase from the prior year. While national financing conditions remain stable with fixed rates near 4.24%, local transaction activity shows divergence between quarterly volume and monthly closings. Saguenay's residential market demonstrated sustained activity in Q2 2026 with 480 sales, up 3 per cent year-over-year, while July 2026 pricing in Jonquiere remained stable at an average of $310,000. This indicates a market where transaction volume is growing modestly even as individual monthly closing counts fluctuate, suggesting underlying demand resilience despite national rate pressures.
