What to watch for
What to verify before selling your plex.
Selling a plex is as much a financial transaction as a real estate one. Income, leases, yield: I prepare a solid file that supports your asking price.
Rental income and active leases
All rents must be documented. Below-market leases reduce the apparent capitalization rate and directly influence the price offered by buyers.
Tenant rights
Repossession rights, lease assignments, refused rent increases: the obligations toward existing tenants must be fully understood before listing.
Unit condition and building systems
Heating, plumbing and electrical in each unit: a well-maintained building sells faster. Buyers factor deferred maintenance directly into their offer price.
Actual and potential yield
A plex's value is calculated on gross income, actual expenses and the area's capitalization rate. I prepare this analysis before any listing.
Compliance and permits
Zoning, rental permits, fire safety compliance: undisclosed irregularities create seller liability and can delay or block the sale.
Preparing for sale
How to prepare your plex for sale.
Prepare the financial file
Income per unit, taxes, insurance, operating expenses: a documented income and expense statement is the foundation of any plex negotiation.
Assess and document each unit
Visit every unit, note deferred maintenance and establish priorities. A well-documented building builds confidence with qualified buyers.
Targeted renovations to increase income
A renovated kitchen or bathroom can justify a significant rent increase, which directly raises the property's market value.
Present the potential, not just the current state
Below-market rents are not a flaw if the potential is documented. I build the sales narrative around the upside ahead.
Frequently asked
What you want to know
about buying a plex.
Is a plex a good investment in Montreal?
Yes. The Montreal plex market remains one of the most stable in Canada. An owner-occupant reduces living costs through collected rents while building long-term equity.
How do I evaluate the profitability of a duplex in Montreal?
I analyze current rental income, active leases, operating expenses and the capitalization rate. A Montreal duplex typically offers a cap rate of 4 to 5%.
What are the obligations of an owner-occupant in a plex?
You must respect existing leases and the rules of the Quebec Civil Code for repossession of units. I explain your rights and obligations before purchase.
Which neighborhoods have the best plex opportunities in Montreal?
Rosemont, Hochelaga-Maisonneuve, Verdun and Pointe-Saint-Charles offer the best yields. These sectors combine an accessible entry price with solid rental demand.
