Buying in Montreal West

Buying a property in Montreal West.

Character homes, tree-lined streets and a train station: Montreal West is a small town with village charm next to NDG.

The local market

The Montreal West real estate market.

Montreal West is a small municipality separate from the City of Montreal, next to Notre-Dame-de-Grâce and Côte Saint-Luc. Its streets lined with tall trees, older homes, parks and community life give it a village feel.

Properties are mostly detached and semi-detached character homes, many from the first half of the 20th century, with some duplexes and apartment buildings. Supply is scarce.

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.
