Vous êtes à la recherche d’une propriété à Montréal et ne savez pas par où commencer?
L’achat d’un bien immobilier est sans l’ombre d’un doute une étape d’une grande importance dans la vie de plusieurs personnes. Visites, offres, contre-offres, négociation, paperasses légales, etc., l’achat d’une propriété est un processus d’une certaine complexité qui nécessite beaucoup de temps, de recherches et d’énergie.
Travailler conjointement avec un courtier immobilier d’expérience et expert des secteurs montréalais que vous considérez pour l’achat de votre propriété peut alors s’avérer être une initiative astucieuse qui vous permettra non seulement de diminuer votre charge mentale, mais également de remettre une partie de votre projet immobilier entre les mains d’un expert et passionné aguerri.
De plus, en tant qu’acheteur, le service est gratuit. A priori, au Québec, lorsqu’on achète une propriété mise en ligne sur Centris (le répertoire référence des propriétés à vendre au Québec), et que celle-ci est vendue par l’entremise d’un courtier, une grande partie, et régulièrement même l’entièreté de la commission du courtier collaborateur (celui qui représente l’acheteur) est acquittée par le vendeur. Alors, pourquoi se passer de l’expertise d’un courtier?

Given the current overheated real estate environment and in the interest of better protecting buyers in a real estate transaction in Quebec, Bill 5 was passed by the National Assembly. This amendment to the Real Estate Brokerage Act was adopted on June 10, 2022. Bill 5 involves various tax measures, but also measures related to the real estate market. It prohibits, among other things, the dual agency of a real estate broker with a buyer and a seller for a residential immovable, as well as the verbal brokerage contract. These measures would then avoid a potential conflict of interest.
With the arrival of this new law, many questions arise. What exactly does this law consist of? What are the benefits for buyers? Does it have any exceptions regarding its application? What are the advantages of the brokerage purchase contract for buyers? What is the opinion of our team’s real estate brokers regarding this important change?
As mentioned previously, Bill 5 prohibits a real estate broker from representing a buyer and a seller at the same time in a transaction involving a residential immovable property. A real estate broker is licensed by the Organisme d’autoréglementation du courtage immobilier du Québec (OACIQ). The broker works with his client, must protect his interests and ensure loyalty. Respect for confidential customer information is essential. In a case of dual agency, these obligations cannot always be fulfilled and can give rise to major conflicts of interest, hence the importance of the establishment of this law.
The real estate broker must then represent only one part of the transaction (the buyer/the seller or the tenant/the lessor), thus ensuring a fairer treatment vis-à-vis the buyer.
The prohibition of dual agency is also combined with the prohibition of the verbal purchase brokerage contract. A written purchase brokerage contract must then be established between the buyer and the real estate broker in order to formalize the transaction.
If a case of dual agency occurs, i.e. a real estate broker is bound by a sale brokerage contract and a purchase brokerage contract, he must then notify the buyer in writing as to the termination of the purchase contract. As soon as this writing is sent, the termination of the purchase contract takes effect. The broker will then have to recommend a new real estate broker to this buying client. However, the buying client can choose not to be represented by anyone and make the decision they desire for the rest of the real estate transaction. If this is the case, the real estate broker must grant him fair treatment.
The concept of fair treatment is fundamental here. The real estate broker must inform the unrepresented buyer with objectivity. Indeed, the broker must demonstrate the accuracy of the information transmitted and indicate to the buyer any adverse elements concerning the desired property. However, the representation of the buyer and the defense of his interests are not possible without the signature of the purchase contract. In this case, the real estate broker will work in collaboration with the broker-seller.
It should be noted that the OACIQ will establish certain exceptions with regard to compliance with the law of double agency. For example, for certain regions of Quebec that would be underserved, real estate brokers in that region would be authorized to represent buyers and sellers. Additional exceptions are expected in the coming months.
Broker-Seller: The broker-seller is the real estate broker who is bound by a Brokerage Sale Contract (BSC) with a seller. Since the broker has a signed contract, he must represent his client’s interests.
Broker-Buyer: The broker-buyer is the real estate broker who is bound by a Brokerage Purchase Contract with a buyer (BPC). He can therefore represent the buyer and must defend his interests.
Broker-Collaborator: The broker-collaborator is the real estate broker who accompanies the buyer in the transaction, but is not bound by a brokerage purchase contract (BPC). As mentioned above, the broker-collaborator must work in collaboration with the broker-seller and cannot represent the buyer and his interests.
Among the new obligations of this law, the brokerage purchase contract became mandatory as of June 10, 2022. In order to formalize the agreement between the buyer and the broker, the purchase contract must be signed by both parties. Signing this type of brokerage contract has many advantages for buyers:
The OACIQ has established certain exceptions regarding compliance with the dual agency law.
-For certain areas of Quebec that would be underserved, real estate brokers in that area would be allowed to represent buyers and sellers.
-A seller and a buyer can be represented by two brokers from the same real estate agency.
-For residential buildings with more than 5 units and commercial buildings, the brokerage purchase contract is not mandatory. The end of dual agency does not apply here.
Bill 5 was adopted by the National Assembly and involves changes to the law on real estate brokerage. These changes have been in effect since June 10, 2022. Among other measures, this new law prohibits the dual agency of a real estate broker with a buyer and a seller for a residential building. It also indicates that in order to formalize a transaction, a written brokerage purchase contract must be established between the two parties. Certain exceptions to this dual agency will be granted, such as in small regions of Quebec where there is a deficit of real estate brokers. It also states that in order to formalize a transaction, a written brokerage purchase contract must be established between the two parties. With the mandatory purchase brokerage contract, this reduces potential conflicts of interest that can arise when a real estate broker represents a buyer at the same time as a seller. In addition, this provides additional protection to the buyer, strengthens the relationship of trust and loyalty between the two parties.

The Promise to Purchase for an undivided co-ownership The Promise to Purchase an undivided property in Quebec differs significantly from that of a divided condominium.

Why invest in commercial real estate? Investing in commercial real estate represents a prudent financial strategy, offering a multitude of attractive advantages for savvy investors.
You are looking for a property in Montreal with your real estate broker. When you search online, the detailed sheets of properties have the mention of “sale without legal warranty of quality, at the buyer’s risk and peril. As you are not certain of the meaning of these terms and their implications, you then ask your real estate broker for further information.
Your real estate brokers answer all your questions:
In Quebec, the law provides that the sale of real estate must guarantee the quality and the right of ownership. These two guarantees constitute the legal warranty.
The guarantee of quality concerns hidden defects. When we talk about hidden defects, we are talking about a “hidden” defect that will undermine the quality of the building. This defect is known by the seller and has been omitted from the Seller’s Declaration (VIS). In addition, the hidden defect existed at the time the purchase but was unknown to the buyer. The hidden defects are not usually not easily noticeable and can be for example mold in the walls, cracks in the foundations, moisture on the ground, water infiltrations, etc.
The guarantee of the right of ownership (security of title) is related to the vices of title of ownership. This would refer to a situation that would prevent the buyer from exercising his right of ownership. For example, the seller would not have repaid his mortgages in full and would have failed to mention it to the buyer.
A sale without legal warranty implies that the buyer agrees to acquire the property at his “ own risk and waives’’. This means that in the case of hidden defects, recourse against the seller is limited, hence the importance of pre-purchase inspection. The seller should still indicate the past defects and complications with the property and must act in good faith, in order to be transparent. The buyer must read it, but understands that he or she has no guarantee on the quality of the property.
For a sale without legal warranty to take place, there must be a mention in the Seller’s Declaration or the Offer to Purchase. This must also be indicated in the act of sale.
The phenomenon of sale without legal warranty has been observed in real estate transactions for several years in Quebec. However, this phenomenon has grown since 2019, during the pandemic. Buyers may decide to waive the legal warranty in order to acquire the coveted property more easily. Sellers, on the other hand, sell their property without legal guarantee, thinking that they will let go of their responsibility. But is it really a good idea?
Selling without a legal warranty has significant negative impacts, especially on the value of the property. Indeed, according to a report from JLR, a property sold without legal warranty would be sold 8% to 11% less than with.
In addition, in order to make an offer more attractive, a buyer can waive the legal warranty and abandon the pre-purchase inspection. The buyer then has no recourse against the seller and is then responsible for the hidden and apparent defects of the property. Fixing these defects can result in a considerable amount of money, which is never desirable.
The reference to “at your own risk and waives” should be taken seriously.
Some sellers opt to sell their property without legal guarantee. However, it is in these 3 following situations that the sale without legal warranty is the most common.
– Senior sellers: Senior sellers often decide to sell their property without a legal warranty in order to avoid liability as they approach retirement. They then move towards a smaller home.
-Estates: the heirs of a property may not have a good knowledge of its history. Indeed, the property may be old and they do not know if there have been problems in the past regarding the quality of the building. In order to protect themselves and avoid the risk of potential lawsuits, the heirs will then sell without legal warranty.
-Bank repossessions: when an owner no longer pays his mortgage, a formal notice is sent and a court judgment is issued a few months later. The bank then takes possession of the property and makes a direct sale. The buildings taken over by the banks are always sold without legal warranty, as a bank does not want to be sued for hidden defects.
Growing in popularity, selling without a legal warranty is a risky and high-risk practice. Before selling, ask your real estate broker for an expert opinion on the subject, which will guide you to the most informed decision.
The phenomenon of sale without legal warranty has been observed in real estate transactions for several years in Quebec. However, this phenomenon has grown recently with the pandemic. Sale without legal warranty implies that the buyer agrees to acquire the property at his “own risk and waives’’. This means that in case of hidden defects, no recourse against the seller will be possible, hence the importance of the pre-purchase inspection. In these three situations the sale without legal guarantee is more common: when the seller is an older person, during a succession or a bank resumption. Despite its growing popularity, selling without a legal guarantee is not recommended because it is a dangerous practice that does not provide protection to the buyer.

After much research and visits with your real estate broker, you have finally acquired the dream property. Now is the time to move.
Moving is an important step in anyone’s life. This change would be one of the greatest sources of anxiety in human beings… and the same goes for our 4-legged friends. Indeed, our pets are creatures of habit and moving is, in many cases, the ultimate upheaval. Our real estate brokers offer you 6 tips that will hopefully make moving to your new property with your little pal easier.



Our Real Estate Intern Bibi is ready for her move.
In order to accustom your pets to living temporarily with boxes, start storing their items early. Place less used items in the boxes and leave them open. Your pets may be curious at first, but soon they won’t give them a second glance. Packing your pets ahead of time will help reduce the anxiety and disruption of the move as the big day approaches and the packing starts to get heavy.
It’s a good idea to schedule a visit with your vet a few weeks before moving so you can do the following:
-Request a copy of your pet’s medical records if you move away from your current neighborhood or city and need to change veterinarians;
-Check that all vaccines are up to date;
-Discuss potential stress reduction tactics or supplements to help relieve your pet’s anxiety.
During the moving process, the doors may be left open and the movers may make many round trips to the home. Make sure your pet wears a collar with your updated contact information and cell phone number. Thus, in the event that your companion flees during the move, this will facilitate contact for his quick and safe return home. Whether you are moving to Villeray, Rosemont or Le Plateau, you must ensure that your cat or dog wears a tag issued by the City at all times, except in the case of a microchipped cat.
*Did you know? Nearly 1 in 3 animals are lost at some point in their life and
only 10% of animals lost without identification are reunited with their owner.

Reduce the stress of moving for you and your pet by having all of your pet’s necessities packed up and close at hand: their food (and treats), their favorite blanket and/or stuffed animal, and toys. In the event of an emergency, have your veterinarian’s contact information, duct tape and towels handy.
Don’t forget a roll of paper towels and disposable plastic bags to help with unexpected clean-ups!

Boxes, mountains of clothes, half-dismantled furniture… A move can quickly turn your once organized home into one big mess. Whether it’s a small room, a corner or even an open closet, having a place for your pet to retreat to when chaos overwhelms it is essential, especially for cats and dogs. Put its blanket, crate, or carrier somewhere comfortable, away from the hustle and bustle of the move, but not too far away that it can hear you.
The best place for your pet is in its crate or carrier located in the backseat and restrained by a seat belt. Make sure the straps are secure in case of an accident and that there are no objects or boxes that could fall and hurt your pet. You can put a blanket over your pet’s crate to reduce visual stimulation if you think this will help reduce their anxiety.
In order for your move with your pet to go smoothly, it is recommended to follow these 6 practical tips shared by your real estate brokers in Montreal. However, as far as possible, keeping your pet on the day of the move remains the best solution to limit the anxiety of this little being. The risk of leakage is also reduced. Why not contact a loved one to look after your companion for a day? Peace of mind and tranquility guaranteed!
Moving represents considerable anguish for humans and… their pets. Our team of real estate brokers offers you 6 practical tips to make your move with your four-legged friend go smoothly. Before the move, it is important to get your pet used to packing boxes and other supplies in advance, contact your veterinarian to ensure your pet’s record is up to date, and create a new tag for your pet’s collar. Address and telephone number must be entered there. Preparing a first aid kit with all of your pet’s necessities is also an important step before the move. On D-Day, keep a comfortable and isolated space for your pet and prepare your companion for a safe trip in your vehicle. However, keeping your pet on all fours on moving day remains the best solution to limit your beloved pet’s anxiety. We wish you a smooth move to your new home!

How much a buyer should offer to purchase a proprety – Key Information Real estate overbidding: how much
In a seller’s market, the number of properties for sale is not sufficient to meet the demand. It is not uncommon for more than one buyer to be interested in the same property, and this is even more the case in the more desirable areas of the city of Montreal. As a buyer, you can sometimes find yourself in a multiple offers situation and overbidding, which can seem tricky and even discouraging. However, there are several strategies to consider in this situation to increase your chances of winning.
Here are 7 that can help you :
Define what criteria are really important to you when you begin your search for a new property. If your criteria are not well defined, you may not have enough time to evaluate the neighborhood and the characteristics of the properties (neighborhood schools, number of rooms needed, maximum budget, etc.). By having clear criteria, you will reduce stress and focus on the opportunities that really meet your needs.
In a multiple offer situation, the selling price is usually higher than the asking price. A real estate broker who knows the Montreal market well will be able to advise you on the price at which a property should sell and help you set the right price for your offer.
His knowledge of neighborhoods, recent transactions and the legal aspects of a real estate transaction will give you access to all the information you need to make informed decisions. In addition, he will be able to put his network of trusted professionals (appraisers, mortgage brokers, notaries, etc.) at your disposal so that you will be ready when the time comes to fulfill the conditions of your promise to purchase.
It is important to know that in a multiple offer situation, you will not be able to know the conditions offered by the other buyers, including the price. Although the seller’s broker must advise you of the number of offers, no other element can be mentioned.
In order to demonstrate your intentions and commitment to the seller, it is strongly recommended that you obtain a mortgage pre-approval from your financial institution in addition to your down payment. This letter will demonstrate to the seller that you are not financially locked in. You can also obtain a proof of funds which will further reassure the seller.
The price is not the only element considered at the time of a purchase. In fact, other clauses such as the occupancy date play a major role in the sellers’ decision. If you are flexible with the date of signing or taking possession, or with inclusions/exclusions, talk to your broker or the seller’s broker (if you are buying alone). They will be able to give you more details on the sellers’ expectations.
The more your terms accommodate the seller’s preferences, the more likely you are to get their attention. There is also the option of making an offer not conditional on an inspection. Although this option is more risky, it is best to discuss it with your real estate broker first.
If the seller wants 48 or 72 hours, do not try the option of reducing the time to 24 hours. This may have a negative effect, rushing the seller who is receiving multiple offers.
Sellers are often emotionally attached to their property, they often want to know the next people who will live there and their plans. By taking the time to write a presentation letter, prepare a video or a photo collage, you increase your chances of showing that you are the ideal buyer. Don’t forget to present your family, your projects or your background, they might recognize themselves in you!
It is suggested to set deadlines as short as possible, while remaining realistic. A serious and ready buyer should have all the information ready in case of an accepted offer to start the process. Consult your inspector in advance to find out the minimum notice period he needs, or your bank or mortgage broker for financial approval deadlines.
If you find the property of your dreams or are looking for a home in an area where listings are scarce, discuss with your broker the option of increasing your offer. Offering your highest price may get you the property you want. If your offer is not accepted, and you have a strong interest in the property, you can put in a second offer. This option ensures that your offer will be accepted if the initial offer falls through.
The Montreal market is as active as ever and properties are selling at a record pace. It is therefore strongly suggested to act quickly. Don’t wait for the visit to see the street or the area of the property. Come by during the day and evening to see the façade and exterior, and if there is an alley, visit it. Respect the seller’s requests regarding the deadline for submitting offers.
If you choose a real estate broker, take the time to check out the reviews of buyers and sellers on Google, to see what they thought of the service offered. After all, it’s people like you who will give you a real idea of what to expect.
Happy searching, and especially happy transactions!

Nearly 40 years after their opening, Chaussures Piétine still retains its loyal clientele in the Outremont neighborhood, while also reaching out to fans of the shoe store concept for young children, who travel from all over the city to receive the judicious advice of the owner, Nadielle Kutlu, regarding their little ones’ needs.
Located on the charming Querbes Avenue, near the Laurier West intersection, Chez Piétine offers a concept and exclusive products that have been delighting consumers for several generations now. It is with a real passion and contagious joy that Nadielle welcomed us in the boutique she now owns, to share a little piece of her knowledge.
Offering high quality European brands such as Ricosta, Pom d’Api, Petit Nord and many others, Chez Piétine takes its mission to heart to offer children quality shoes, comfortable and above all, adapted to kids’ little feet! Without being trained podiatrists, Nadielle and her employees are passionate enough about the field to advise parents to the best of their knowledge when they are looking for an adapted and comfortable model… while being, let’s face it, very cute!
Danièle Papazian, our real estate broker, is an avid fan of the boutique where she has brought her children since they were very young in order to offer them shoes that are adapted to their needs, and of a style that is both sought-after and unique in its kind. The great attention paid to the choice of products and the materials used to make them is one of the points of differentiation that Danièle mentions when she talks about the Outremont boutique. Apple leather, recycled materials, soft, comfortable and non-toxic, the employees at Piétine make it their duty to select items whose materials are suitable for the particular needs of infants whose first steps are an important stage of development, as well as for children of school age.
Rain boots, sandals, booties, athletic shoes and slippers, Piétine offers a wide selection of carefully chosen products that meet the highest standards of comfort.
If the pandemic was a brake on the development of the business model of many, this business, which has become an institution in the Outremont neighborhood, took advantage of it to reinvent itself, while continuing to offer the outstanding service for which they are known to their loyal customers.
In the summer of 2021, the store installed a large outdoor carpet to accommodate customers in a sanitary manner, while allowing toddlers to enjoy the space to walk, run and try on their new shoes! Nadielle Kutlu also offered its in-home services to customers who needed precise advice on the size, style or comfort their little ones needed, a problem exacerbated by the closure of physical stores, leaving parents with no option but to order their toddler’s first pair of sneakers online.
If you don’t know this charming neighborhood business, which has become a real institution over the decades, the boutique Chez Piétine is definitely worth a visit for all new parents and lovers of quality and adapted products who want to spoil their little ones with original shoes of unbeatable quality.
The Piétine boutique is located on 111 Querbes Avenue in Montreal.

Are you looking for a property? You are getting ready to make your first real estate investment and are looking for information and advice on the steps and procedures to follow to complete this major project.
Our team of real estate brokers has prepared a summary document, inspired by the OACIQ Buyer’s Guide, which outlines the main steps to follow in order to carry out your project in complete confidence.
Here is a summary of the main topics covered in this buyer’s guide.
The first important step is to establish your budget. Indeed, it is important that it takes into account your lifestyle, your daily expenses, your payments, your debts, while taking into account your medium and long term objectives.
This way, you will know exactly what budget you can allocate to the purchase of a property, in addition to directing your search in the right direction, towards homes that respect your budget limit.
It will then be important to have a mortgage pre-approval that assesses your ability to borrow from the bank. This document will be given to you by a mortgage broker, who will probably use one of the following two ratios :

You will then need to determine the amount of your down payment, which is the amount you will have to pay when you purchase the property. This amount will then be deducted from the purchase price of the property. This amount will depend on the type of property you are purchasing (divided co-ownership, undivided, income property, etc.).
As a real estate buyer, you should also set aside a preventive amount to cover the inspection, notary fees, transfer duties and all other expenses related to the acquisition of a property, as well as any unforeseen circumstances that may arise.
Also note that if this is your first real estate purchase, the HBP (Home Buyer’s Plan) may be of interest to you! Consult our guide to find out more about it.
Also, be sure to define your search criteria, the geographic area you are looking for, the type of neighborhood you want to live in, your needs, restrictions, etc. A detailed sheet in our buyer’s guide will help you narrow down your search criteria.
Contact one of our real estate brokers to help you establish your criteria.
If you wish to do business with a professional in the sector, discover our real estate brokers in Montreal who will be pleased to accompany you in your steps. Real estate professionals are protected by the Real Estate Brokerage Act, which, as mentioned by the OACIQ, will help protect you during your transaction.
In addition, real estate brokers generally have a network of contacts that will allow you to surround yourself with the best experts in each of the fields necessary for a successful transaction: mortgage broker, notary, inspector and others.
The Seller’s Declaration is the document in which the seller records all the information he or she is aware of about his or her property that may help future buyers make up their minds about the property, including any defects or irregularities in the location.
Have you found the perfect home? Now it’s time to write the Promise to Purchase (PTP), the official and mandatory document that tells the sellers that you want to buy their property. It is in this document that you indicate the price at which you wish to purchase the property as well as the conditions of your offer. The Promise to Purchase is a negotiating tool between the parties and is therefore negotiable.
Although you may decide not to ask for a building inspection before signing the promise to purchase, your broker must recommend it! More information on this subject can be found in our guide for buyers.
Once the Promise to Purchase is accepted, the next step is to formalize the transaction. The two main components of this step are the title examination and the deed of sale. The transfer of the property requires the involvement of a notary. Again, your real estate broker plays a crucial role in ensuring that the required documents are available.
The final step in the transaction is the drafting and signing of the deed of sale, in order to make the purchase of the property official. The notary will specify, among other things, the clauses and conditions essential to the protection of your rights.
