Buy Land
Buying land to build a house in Quebec requires some planning and in-depth research. Here are some tips to consider:
Location: Location is one of the most important factors to consider when buying land. We will check together the proximity of services such as schools, hospitals, supermarkets and public transport. The natural aspects of the location, such as views, trees, and orientation to the sun, are also important.
Type of land: With the help of our experts, we help you understand the type of land you are buying. Flat land is generally easier and cheaper to build than sloping land.
Zoning and restrictions: Before making an offer to purchase, we will check the municipality’s zoning rules to ensure that you can build the type of home you envision. There may be restrictions on size, height, exterior appearance, etc.
Utilities: Make sure the land has access to necessary utilities such as electricity, water, gas, and sewage. Otherwise, it can be expensive to bring them to the field.
Soil study: We refer you to experts to do a soil study before purchase. This will tell you if the ground is suitable for construction and can help identify potential problems, such as flooding or the presence of rocks at depth.
Financing: The purchase of land and the construction of a house generally require two types of loans: a loan for the purchase of the land and a loan for the construction. We will do all the coordination to get the funding.
Long-term planning: Consider your long-term plan. If you plan to expand your home in the future or sell your property, these factors may influence the type of land you want to buy. In any case, as real estate experts, we will be with you.
