The local market

The Centre-Sud real estate market.

Centre-Sud, in the Ville-Marie borough, brings together the Village, the Latin Quarter, Sainte-Marie and the Faubourg Saint-Laurent. UQAM, the Jacques Cartier Bridge and large redevelopment projects, including the former Radio-Canada site, are transforming the area.

You will find older plexes, row houses, condos in converted buildings and many recent projects. Supply is varied and often more accessible than downtown.

What Montreal buyers say.

Buying a house in Montreal was easy thanks to Mercedes from Équipe MG. She is a knowledgeable and professional Montreal realtor who made the entire home-buying process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home or condo in MTL.
