Residential appraisal
in Trois-Rivières
From the historic downtown core to the newer developments in Pointe-du-Lac, every residential property in Trois-Rivières deserves a rigorous and impartial appraisal signed by an OEAQ certified appraiser.
What we appraise in residential
Single-family home
Bungalow, cottage, two-storey or split-level: we produce a report that reflects fair market value by considering location, living area, overall condition, and comparable sales in the neighbourhood.
Condominium
A condo appraisal in Trois-Rivières considers the unit itself as well as the co-ownership: contingency fund, building condition, condo fees, and compliance with Act 16 on building maintenance.
Plex (duplex, triplex, quadruplex)
Small income properties are appraised using both the income approach and the comparison approach. We analyze current rents, rental potential, vacancy rates, and operating expenses.
Multi-unit (5+ units)
For buildings with 5 or more units, very common in Trois-Rivières’ central neighbourhoods, the income capitalization approach is preferred. We assess gross income, overall capitalization rate, and profitability.
Residential real estate in Trois-Rivières:
a booming market
Trois-Rivières is attracting more and more buyers thanks to prices that remain affordable compared to larger cities. Downtown is undergoing a major revitalization with heritage buildings being converted into condos and modern multi-unit dwellings.
The Cap-de-la-Madeleine, Sainte-Marthe-du-Cap, and Pointe-du-Lac neighbourhoods offer single-family homes at various price points, while the central areas are full of plexes and multi-unit buildings sought after by investors.
Our in-depth knowledge of these micro-markets allows us to produce appraisals that reflect the realities of each Trois-Rivières neighbourhood.
Act 16 and your condo in Trois-Rivières
Act 16 requires condo syndicates to obtain a contingency fund study and a maintenance log. These requirements directly affect the market value of your condo.
An insufficient contingency fund can lead to special assessments for co-owners, negatively impacting value. Conversely, a well-managed syndicate reassures buyers and lenders.
With the many condo projects in downtown Trois-Rivières, this analysis has become essential. Our appraisal integrates the state of the contingency fund, planned work, and the overall building maintenance.
If you are buying, selling, or refinancing a condo in Trois-Rivières, our report reflects the true value of your unit within its co-ownership context.

Éval+ | Certified Appraisers OEAQQuestions about residential appraisal
What is the difference between market value and the municipal assessment?
The municipal assessment is used for property taxes and reflects a reference date that may go back several years. Market value is the current price your property would sell for on the open market. The two amounts are often different.
How long does a residential appraisal take?
The inspection lasts between 30 minutes and 1 hour depending on the property size. The full report is typically delivered within 5 to 10 business days.
Do you appraise multi-unit buildings in Trois-Rivières?
Yes. Buildings with 2 to 50+ units are part of our expertise. Trois-Rivières has a large and diverse rental stock that we know well.
Is your report accepted by Desjardins and major banks?
Yes. Our reports are signed by an OEAQ certified appraiser and are accepted by Desjardins, chartered banks, and private lenders for residential financing.
