Notary in Le Plateau-Mont-Royal

In the duplex and triplex-lined streets of Plateau-Mont-Royal, the notary plays a pivotal role in real estate transactions. With a housing stock where the median construction year is 1915, buyers face specific legal structures. The scarcity of single-family homes, representing only 2.5% of dwellings, drives buyers toward co-ownership, which is often undivided. The notary, a member of the Chambre des notaires du Québec (CNQ), must meticulously draft undivided co-ownership agreements to protect the rights of each owner in these century-old buildings.

The profile of local residents also shapes the notary's daily practice. Since the share of owner households stands at 27.9%, buying a home is a major milestone for young professionals or families settling in the area. During the purchase process, the professional must pay close attention to the physical condition of the property. With 10.9% of dwellings needing major repairs, drafting purchase clauses, reviewing seller declarations, and managing legal warranties are crucial steps to prevent future disputes linked to the age of the building.

I am buying an apartment in a triplex dating from 1915, why do I need a notary for an undivided co-ownership agreement?
In the Plateau, most apartments sold by floor are undivided co-ownerships. The notary drafts the agreement to define the exclusive use of your home, the sharing of common expenses, and the resale rules between the building's owners.
The building I want to buy needs major work, how can a notary protect me?
With 10.9% of dwellings needing major repairs in the neighborhood, the notary can insert specific clauses in the purchase offer. These conditions can link the sale to a detailed inspection or hold part of the purchase price in escrow until the work is completed.
We are a couple with children planning to buy our first home in the Plateau, what is the notary's role?
The notary advises you on the choice of ownership structure and drafts your marriage or civil union contract. They protect your family assets when acquiring your share of the 27.9% of owner households in the area.
