Investing in Mont-Saint-Hilaire
Rental potential in Mont-Saint-Hilaire
The terminus of Line 13 is the main driver of rental demand, particularly in the Village de la Gare, a sector designed for about 1,000 homes within walking distance of the station. The rental stock includes condos, townhouses and a few plexes. Tourist traffic tied to the mountain, the orchards and the museum also supports local businesses. Projects must take into account the rules protecting natural environments.

Frequently asked questions
Real estate in Mont-Saint-Hilaire
Is the Village de la Gare a good area to invest in?
This area was designed for density around the station, which attracts tenants who take the train. As with any investment, you need to analyze the income, the condo fees 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 Mont-Saint-Hilaire?
For an $800,000 plex, approximately $14,611 according to the City of Mont-Saint-Hilaire’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.
How can you increase the value of a revenue property?
Reduce vacancy, maintain the units and common areas, improve energy efficiency and keep a clear record of income and expenses. Rent increases must comply with the rules of the Tribunal administratif du logement.
