Area servedDowntown Montréal Real Estate
In the heart of the Ville-Marie borough, downtown Montréal brings together offices, universities, shopping and culture at the foot of Mount Royal. Our brokers sell and lease every kind of property here, from our office a few minutes away on rue Saint-Maurice.
Living downtown
Downtown living puts Sainte-Catherine Street, the Quartier des spectacles, the Museum of Fine Arts and Mount Royal Park within walking distance. The RÉSO underground pedestrian network links many towers, metro stations and malls, which comes in handy in winter.
McGill and Concordia universities keep the area lively year-round, while pockets such as the Golden Square Mile and Shaughnessy Village offer quieter streets and heritage buildings.
Property types and who they suit
Expect mainly high-rise condos, often with concierge and amenities, along with rental apartments, lofts and, in some pockets, greystone row houses. Downtown also has luxury properties, which we showcase under our Fine Homes & Estates banner.
The area suits professionals, students and parents buying for them, people who want to live car-free and investors looking for steady tenants.
Why work with our local brokers
From our office at 685 rue Saint-Maurice, our brokers cover all of Ville-Marie. They know what matters in condo towers: fees, contingency funds, and rules on pets and rentals.
We provide full support for sales, purchases, rentals, investment and commercial real estate. Buyers and sellers who work with us also get free use of our moving truck.
