The housing stock in Montréal

Montreal’s housing stock is dominated by plexes and condos, two types lenders treat differently from a suburban bungalow: rental income from a duplex or triplex enters the calculation, and a condo means reviewing the syndicate’s financial statements.

Transfer duties in Montréal

Montreal applies additional brackets beyond the provincial thresholds. An identically priced property therefore costs more in transfer duties in Montreal than in most other Quebec cities.

Transfer duties are paid in cash after signing with the notary; they are not included in the mortgage loan.

Term or permanent: that question comes second

The contract type follows from the need, not the other way around. A loan to cover over twenty years and a tax bill at death do not call for the same protection. The representative establishes the need before comparing products.

What is different in Quebec

Beneficiary designation, the irrevocable-beneficiary question between married or civil-union spouses, and treatment at death fall under Quebec civil law. A representative registered here knows those rules, which is not guaranteed elsewhere in the country.

Why no price is shown here

A premium depends on age, smoker status, health, and the amount requested. Showing a figure without those would be misleading. CompareTaux produces no automated recommendation.
