Frequently asked questions
The questions owners ask most often before a valuation.
Market value depends on comparable sales, location, condition, property features and current market conditions. An online estimate is a starting point; a complete analysis may require a consultation and property visit.
No. The municipal assessment is used to calculate property taxes. In Montreal and the Town of Mount Royal, the 2026-2027-2028 roll, in force since January 1, 2026, reflects market conditions as of July 1, 2024. Market value is what an informed buyer would pay today, given the property's condition and recent comparable sales, so the two can differ significantly.
Yes. A valuation of your property by Équipe Lefrançois is free and comes with no obligation: it helps you understand your position, and the decision to sell, and when, remains yours.
It's a good starting point, but not a valuation. An online tool relies on general data and can't see the property's actual condition, renovations or distinctive features such as orientation, lot, view or street. Setting a listing price still requires a broker's analysis of comparable sales, ideally after a visit.
The team combines an analysis of recent comparable sales in the neighbourhood, a review of current local market conditions and a direct conversation with a broker to arrive at a positioning recommendation.
The Montreal agglomeration's property assessment roll, which includes the Town of Mount Royal, can be viewed free of charge on montreal.ca ("Property assessment roll") by address or registration number. It shows the land and building values used for the current roll.
A real estate broker prepares a comparative market analysis to recommend a realistic listing price. A chartered appraiser, a member of the Ordre des évaluateurs agréés du Québec (OEAQ), produces a formal appraisal report, often required by a lender or for an estate or legal matter. They serve different purposes.
A real estate broker active in the area can prepare a comparative market analysis to estimate a realistic sale price; Équipe Lefrançois does so in the Town of Mount Royal and Outremont, among other areas. For a formal report (financing, estate, legal matter), hire a chartered appraiser who is a member of the OEAQ.
Location, overall condition, size, property type and any distinctive features are part of what's considered, alongside comparable sales and current market conditions.
An online estimate is a starting point based on the address and features provided; a complete analysis may then require a consultation and a visit with a broker.
If possible, gather your certificate of location, municipal and school tax bills, the list and invoices of recent renovations and, for a condo, the syndicate documents (declaration of co-ownership, financial statements, condo fees). They allow a more accurate and faster reading of value.
Not always in proportion to what they cost. Work that fixes a problem (roof, windows, foundation, electrical) mainly protects value and makes the sale easier, while highly personalized renovations are rarely recovered in full. Keep a complete file (invoices, contractors, warranties): it supports your asking price.
