Investing in Saint-Constant

Rental potential in Saint-Constant

The presence of two commuter train stations supports rental demand from people who travel daily to work in Montreal. The rental stock is made up mostly of plexes and small buildings, with denser projects near the stations. The commercial arteries along Routes 132 and 209 and the proximity of Highway 30 also attract retailers and service businesses. A case-by-case analysis of income and expenses remains essential before any purchase.

Comparable sales

Frequently asked questions

Real estate in Saint-Constant

What kind of income property is there in Saint-Constant?

You'll mainly find duplexes, triplexes and small multi-unit buildings, as well as new projects near the stations. Demand comes in large part from commuters who take the commuter train.

What is the average price of a plex in Saint-Constant?

In January to September 2026, 14 plexes (from duplexes to quintuplexes) sold in Saint-Constant, at an average price of $879,164 (source: Centris®). The right price for a building depends mainly 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.

For an $800,000 plex, approximately $14,611 according to the City of Saint-Constant’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.
