Investing in Boucherville

Rental potential in Boucherville

The Edison and Lavoisier industrial parks generate strong demand for industrial space, warehouses and offices, thanks to direct access to Highways 20 and 30. The residential rental stock is made up mostly of condos and a few plexes, since the city is predominantly single-family. Commercial and industrial investment is often more active here than multi-family investment.

How we analyze a plex

Gross income multiplier

The asking price compared with the building's income and with plexes sold in the area.

Net income

Actual rents minus taxes, insurance, energy, maintenance and vacancy: what you really keep.

Comparable sales

Plexes recently sold in Boucherville and the surrounding area, and the price per door, adjusted for the condition of the building.

Municipal assessment

The relationship between the price and the municipal assessment, to help frame an offer.

Before buying a plex in Boucherville

“I find it odd that a suburban city has a national park right in front of its old village; for many buyers, that's what tips the balance in favour of Boucherville.”

Frequently asked questions

Real estate in Boucherville

Is Boucherville attractive for a commercial or industrial investor?

The Edison and Lavoisier industrial parks, along Highway 20, are among the South Shore's major employment hubs. Access to the bridge-tunnel and the highways attracts distribution and service companies. Still, each building must be assessed on its leases, its zoning and its condition.

What is the average price of a plex in Boucherville?

In January to September 2026, 7 plexes (from duplexes to quintuplexes) were sold in Boucherville, at an average price of $1,037,143 (source: Centris®). The right price for a building depends mostly on its income: always compare the multiplier and the condition of the building.

How do you calculate the return on a revenue property?

Start with the gross income multiplier (price ÷ annual income), then calculate net income: rents minus taxes, insurance, energy, maintenance and vacancy. Then compare with similar buildings sold in the area. A good purchase is judged by actual income, not expected income.

What should you check in the leases before buying a building?

Ask for a copy of every current lease and renewal notice: rent, term, services included, special agreements. Compare the rents with the market in the area and check for vacant units. Leases stay with the building: the buyer takes them on as they are.

How much is the welcome tax on a plex in Boucherville?

For an $800,000 plex, approximately $14,611 according to the City of Boucherville’s 2026 schedule. Plan for this amount on top of your down payment, which varies depending on the number of units and whether you live in the building.
