Quebec’s real estate market has been booming since spring, and overbidding—seen in Montréal since 2018—is now starting to occur outside of the metropolis.

There are many myths about RRSPs. Here is some helpful information that will help you distinguish truth from myth!

André Delisle of Québec City sold his Sainte-Foy home early this summer, celebrating his fifth sale with the help of DuProprio’s services. The sale was marked by the COVID-19 pandemic, but also his participation in our advertising campaign in the months that followed.

Several months have passed, each similar to the last, since the resumption of real estate activities in May. Even the second wave of COVID-19 infections and several Quebec regions being declared red zones do not seem to have shaken property sellers’ and buyers' confidence.

People must still buy and sell properties even while COVID-19 is an issue. The reality is that the real estate market operates continuously, because people start new jobs, welcome an addition to the family or don’t renew their lease because they intend to buy a starter home.

In order to limit the risk of spreading COVID-19, visiting a house for sale must be done in compliance with hygiene and social distancing measures issued by public health authorities.

COVID-19 has forced every industry to adjust the way they operate, and real estate is no exception. Since the virus may be part of our lives for some time, Quebecers will have to adapt the way they sell properties.
