Beneath Parc Pie-XII lies a cavern formed more than 15,000 years ago in 450-million-year-old limestone; new galleries were discovered in 2017. Spéléo Québec runs guided tours in summer, an uncommon experience in the middle of the city.

Why have a home inspected before buying?

The pre-purchase inspection reveals the condition of the roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical system and any signs of moisture. It lets you negotiate or walk away depending on the conditions of your offer to purchase. Be present at the inspection: it is the best way to understand the home you are buying.
