Documents to prepare when selling a property in Quebec

Organizing documents early makes discussions easier and helps answer buyers’ questions during the transaction.

Gather information on the property

Start with the documents you have on work done, renovations, warranties, systems and the property’s inclusions.

The required information can vary by type of building and transaction. Have the requirements applicable to your file confirmed.

Prepare co-ownership or rental documents

For a condo, gather the available co-ownership documents and information on fees and work. For a rental building, prepare the relevant information on the leases.

Protect personal information and share documents through the appropriate channels.

Have legal questions checked

A general list does not replace the forms and advice required for your transaction, such as the seller’s declarations. Ask the relevant professional for help with any legal or tax question.

Keeping up-to-date versions and organizing files by topic can speed up discussions when buyers ask questions.
