Borough of Montreal
Real estate broker in Montréal-Nord
Montréal-Nord is a market being revalued: a post-war stock — 61% from before 1970 —, family plexes passed from one generation to the next, and values that have changed considerably. Many owners do not know what their building is really worth today.
Ernso Cléus, residential and commercial real estate broker — RE/MAX Crystal
Family plexes by the river
The residential north — between Boulevard Gouin and Henri-Bourassa: established streets near the Rivière des Prairies banks, post-war bungalows and duplexes, at the doorstep of Rivière-des-Prairies.
The heart of the borough — around Pie-IX and Léger boulevards: typically Montreal brick plexes, strong demand from owner-occupants and investors alike, served by the Pie-IX BRT.
Montréal-Nord is also one of the hearts of Montreal’s Haitian community — Ernso Cléus serves it in French, English and Creole.
Why buyers want Montréal-Nord
- Pie-IX BRT to the metro; Highway 25 and the bridge to Laval
- Rivière des Prairies banks, Aimé-Léonard park
- Plexes and family properties: frequent successions, files to prepare
- Values in strong evolution over the past decade
- A lively community, neighbourhood shops
The Montréal-Nord housing stock in numbers
Here is the picture of the borough housing stock from the 2026 municipal assessment roll (public MEFQ data) — not the sale price. The municipal assessment is not the market value: that is read in the recent real sales on your street. Why the municipal assessment differs from market value.
With 61% of the stock from before 1970, original properties are the norm: components that come up regularly in inspections, renovations to document, successions to put in order. It is exactly the market where arriving prepared changes the outcome — verification by an independent building inspector, invoices assembled, a price grounded in the neighbourhood’s real sales. For a duplex or triplex, the commercial brokerage licence covers the profitability analysis.
