A field with endless possibilities

The site covers nearly 33 hectares (3.3 million square feet), about half of which is cultivated and the other is wooded. A head lake ensures the irrigation of the fields and contributes to the autonomy of agricultural installations.

The estate includes a main building built in 2010 and renovated in 2021, combining two event rooms, the administrative offices, the gourmet shop and an apartment on the second floor, currently used as storage space.

The site also includes installations for the mini-farm, a stable, a 40 x 100-foot agricultural dome and various accessory buildings.

A flexible formula according to the buyer's project

Whether you dream of an agricultural, maple, tourist or event project, this property offers an exceptional combination of reputation, profitability and potential for expansion.

The project may be suitable as much for an entrepreneur wishing to take over all operations as for an investor wishing to maintain the management team and operations already in place. The current team is stable, experienced and open to supporting the transition, both in the short and long term, in order to ensure the continuity and development of the company, which is already profitable and firmly established in its community.

A considerable advantage: the company already collaborates with La Financière Agricole du Québec. Depending on the project and its approval, it can finance between 80% and 90% of the acquisition, which means that there could be only between 10% and 20% of the financing left to be assumed by the purchaser (s).

The slogan of La Cité Agricole, "Your farm, your home", perfectly reflects the strong sense of belonging developed with customers over the years.

A visit will certainly seduce you.

*The price displayed corresponds to the valuation of assets only, i.e. land and buildings, according to an approved valuation carried out by the renowned firm Sylvestre Leblond & Associates.

** Equipment is excluded and may be negotiated according to the needs of the project of the purchaser (s).

The steps involved in buying a property

Could this property be “the one”? Here’s an overview of the steps involved in becoming the owner. These steps and the legal implications remain the same whether the property is purchased from an individual or through a broker.

1
Financing

One of the first things to do when looking for a property is to get a mortgage preapproval from a financial institution. The goal is to determine borrowing capacity, and as a result, the price range to be looking in.

2
Offer to purchase

The property suits the budget and needs? Time to submit an offer to purchase! This document sets out the price, the elements included in the sale, the possession date, the conditions of purchase and all other information relevant to the sale.

3
Conditions of purchase

The offer to purchase generally includes conditions. The most common are the property passing an inspection, the buyer providing proof of financing and the buyer selling their own property. Once the listed conditions are met, the property is considered sold.

4
Property transfer

The last step is to see a notary, who is generally chosen by the buyer. This real estate professional drafts the deed of sale and ensures that the interests of all parties involved are respected.

Once the deed of sale is notarized, the new owner gets the keys to the home. All that’s left is to move in!
