The local market
Who buys in Austin?
In Austin, buyers are looking for proximity to Lac Memphrémagog, the scenery and the peace of the countryside. Sellers should be sure to highlight water access, the view, the lot size and the drive time to Magog and Highway 10. For an older home on a heritage road, the building's history and the renovations completed are advantages worth emphasizing.
Properties for sale here
- Waterfront properties on Lac Memphrémagog
- Country homes and small farms
- Cottages and secondary residences
- Properties on large wooded lots

Our favourite spot in Austin
Abbaye de Saint-Benoît-du-Lac
Religious heritage
The Benedictine abbey, surrounded by its cheese factory and its lands, has formed a small separate municipality since 1939, distinct from Austin. A walking trail starts at Parc Reginald-Aubrey-Fessenden, in Austin, and runs along the lake to the abbey.

Frequently asked questions
Real estate in Austin
How do you showcase a property near the lake in Austin?
Specify the type of lake access, the view and facilities such as the dock, along with the authorizations obtained. Photos taken in different seasons also help buyers picture themselves there.
Is home staging worth it when selling?
Yes. A decluttered, clean and well-lit property looks bigger in photos and attracts more showings. Start by depersonalizing (family photos, collections), repairing small defects, refreshing the paint in neutral tones and half-emptying the closets. We'll advise you room by room before the photo shoot.
What is the best time to sell in Austin?
There are more buyers from January to March and in the spring, but a well-prepared property sells in any season. In January to September 2026, homes in Austin sold in 79 days on average: the right price from the start matters more than the season.
How do you set the right selling price in Austin?
With recent comparable sales in the area, not with what the neighbours are asking. A fair price from the start draws more showings and avoids price cuts. For reference, the median price of a single-family home in Austin was $720,000 in January to September 2026.
What documents should I prepare before putting my property up for sale?
The certificate of location, municipal and school tax bills, invoices for work and renovations, warranties that are still valid and, for a condo, the co-ownership documents. Having them ready from the start avoids delays and reassures buyers.
