Un grand merci à toi, Mathieu, pour la confiance que tu m'as accordée lors de cette 2ème transaction !

Et quelle trouvaille ! Une propriété magnifiquement mise à jour et entretenue par les mêmes propriétaires depuis 57 ans ! Le hic : des offres multiples ✨️ Mais le Grand Bonus pour moi, c'est que mon Client (que l'on voit ici avec moi), et les Vendeurs étaient ravis !

Thank you so much, Mathieu, for your continued trust with this 2nd transaction !

And what a find! A beautifully updated and maintained property with the same owners over the past 57 years! The catch: multiple offers ✨️ But my biggest Bonus: both my Client (seen here with me), and the charming Sellers, were overjoyed!

Thank you so much for your lovely testimonial, Caroline! It was a pleasure assisting you in finding and purchasing this beautiful home at the foot of beautiful Mont-Saint-Hilaire, which seems to have been custom made for you!

And thank you to Alain Desmarais, ReMax, for your collaboration.

“Marie Paule is an incredible woman who is attentive and caring. She knew how to advise me according to my needs. I'm very satisfied with her work.” ~ Caroline G.

Huge thanks for your continued trust, Pascal!

✨ Real Estate Success Captured with my repeat buyer client, Pascal, myself at the center, and the seller, @tommyvenardos – a dual role as both realtor and previous owner.

Sealed with smiles in the notary's office after closing, this photo embodies the spirit of collaboration and trust. Together, we've not just closed a deal, but ensured a promising investment journey for my client and a seamless handover by the seller, who's been both realtor and caring landlord.

Huge congratulations and thanks to my Client Émile for acquiring this beautiful 2-bedroom condo with private parking.

After a long and arduous 4-year search filled with challenges that included the pandemic, a job loss, bidding wars, and rising interest rates, Emile's unwavering determination and perseverance ultimately paid off!

I'm so grateful for having been able to assist you through this challenging journey and the accomplishment of this significant milestone in your life, Émile!

Thank you for your continued trust, Lindsay, and congratulations on this beautiful apartment!

In 2020, in the middle of Covid and imposed 2-week quarantines for anyone entering Canada, Lindsay’s sister had contacted me from the US.

Lindsay had been hired as a biochemical researcher and needed to find an apartment within walking distance from her work in Montreal, but had an aging cat she could not be separated from! Luckily, I’d found exactly what she wanted.

We’d done everything through phone calls and zoom videos, and never actually met in person! Finally, despite her heavy work schedule, Lindsay has now discovered Montreal’s vibrancy!

My American clients had originally wanted a 2bed, 2bath condo with garage and close to a park in the Plateau... but with their beloved pet Teddy, a 45 lb dog, the choice was even more limited!

I suggested a few other areas where we might have more luck, and the moment they walked into this beautiful condo on Île-des-Soeurs with breathtaking views of the St-Lawrence , they knew it was for them 💗

Thank you so much, Shawn and Gilles, for trusting me with finding the perfect second home for you and Teddy. You can now spend more time with your family here in Montreal.

Un énorme merci à mon Client, Gilles, pour ce beau témoignage ☆☆☆

Vendre sa maison avec son beau jardin rempli de fleurs, après y avoir habité plus de 30 ans et dans laquelle on a vu grandir ses enfants, est un évènement très émotionnel. Je dois également remercier Sébastien (fils de Gilles) et sa femme Isabelle, qui m'ont si chaleureusement recommandé pour la vente cette jolie maison familiale.

Un énorme merci à mon Client, Félix, pour cette troisième transaction avec, cette fois-ci, sa conjointe, Danya, ainsi que pour leur beau témoignage ☆☆☆

J’ai acheté ce condo penthouse pour mes clients, Félix et Danya, alors que les offres multiples et la flambée des prix de l’immobilier régnaient encore à Montréal. D’autres obstacles continuaient de surgir, tels qu’un manque total de documents de condo et un changement de direction externe du syndicat de condos une fois que l’offre avait été acceptée conditionnellement.

Cependant, la persévérance, un travail d’enquête acharné pour trouver toutes les informations vitales nécessaires afin de permettre à mes clients de prendre une décision éclairée, ainsi que des négociations serrées et beaucoup de patience ont porté fruit!

Merci beaucoup, cher Félix, de m’avoir fait confiance une fois de plus! Ce fut un plaisir pour moi de vous aider, toi et Danya, à acheter votre première demeure de rêve!

Huge thanks to my US clients, Andrea and Geoffrey, for their beautiful testimonial

Andrea and Geoffrey who live in New Orleans and found me online, contacted me from the US about buying a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom property close to McGill University, for their daughter. They had never purchased a property in Quebec before, and we did the entire process online except for signing the Deed of Sale. Their daughter, already in Montréal, visited with me.

We quickly found the perfect property, which unfortunately was in negotiation for an offer - however, the offer fell through. Having clearly explained the purchase process and current Montreal market to my Clients in advance, and also thanks to my preferred mortgage broker, we were able to swiftly put in an excellent offer and secure the condo.

Both my Clients and the Seller are delighted!

Receiving a great testimonial like this one on a cold winter morning is what makes my job as a Realtor so enriching and worthwhile💗

Thank you so much, dear N., for putting your trust in me to assist you in finding your Dream Home!

When my client described her perfect home (on the Plateau, top floor, generous fenestration, large sunny terrace, 3 bedrooms, and beautifully preserved character) I knew it would be a challenge, particularly in such a tight Seller's market, since these rare finds are always in very high demand!

The other challenge was that buying a heritage property is quite different from buying a relatively recent property, and this was a major learning curve for N. (as it is for anyone not familiar with older properties!) ... But through excellent collaboration, we achieved a great outcome for all ☆☆☆

I'm so pleased to have been able to make my client's project come through so quickly!

It was a very long day of travelling to and from Ottawa, numerous visits, and having to review the terms and finalize an offer "all on the same day" for Yves, a young civil engineer who is finishing his engineering degree at U. of Ottawa and embarking on a new career in Montreal in the new year!

Combined to the fact that it was a multiple offer situation and a first for him - quite an eventful day, but the next morning we received notification that our offer had won!

A huge thank you for your trust, Yves!

My past client, Pascal, had decided to move from Paris to Montréal for a few years.

The perfect executive position having opened up, the large international corporation for which he works assigned a Montreal relocation company to assist him ... ⏳⌛⌛Several months into the exercise with no results, and having now arrived in Montréal 🛩🧳📦 he decided to call me, his trusted Realtor, for help!

We found the perfect, elegant and spacious, 3-bedroom apartment, with large rooms, garage and beautiful views, within a week!

Why did I succeed where the relocation company failed? Because I take the time to know my clients well, to know what they love and the deal breakers.

Huge thanks to my charming client, Anaya, a young doctor from Toronto embarking on a new career in Montreal 💗 After working virtually for several weeks (it was during the pandemic), we spent a day visiting condos and found the perfect fit, with floor to ceiling windows giving a view of the Saint-Lawrence which is about 5 minutes away on foot!

Warm thanks also to my good clients and friends, Ashwinth and Christina, for referring me to their neighbor who heads the department where Ananya will be working 🥂

Delighted Clients & Great Collaboration 🥂

Huge thanks, Gioconda and Michael, for trusting me with the sale of your home for the past 30 years 💗 It will be well loved by it's new owner (and thank you for a great collaboration, Nathalie Carpentier, for a great collaboration and for finding the perfect Buyer for this home🔑).

Huge thanks to my lovely Clients and new friends, Viviane and Thomas 💚 I could not receive a more wonderful thank-you and reward for my work! It was a pleasure assisting you 🏡 Un énorme merci à mes Clients devenu amis, Viviane et Thomas !

A dairy farm in its previous life, the large barn on this 7.5 acre estate now houses horses🐴 a few cows 🐄 and a timid pig 🐖 It was a long, arduous search, but the final 500 km round trip visiting countryside estates with my clients was a pleasure and a success! Now this charming country estate is their new home🌿

Thank you so much for your lovely testimonial, Viviane and Thomas! It was a pleasure assisting you.

"Marie-Paule won us over with her kindness, her approachability and her level of competence.

Today, we wouldn't consider making a transaction without her support.

During the buying and selling process, she showed us that she could give us sound advice to protect our interests, while being realistic about the current state of the market, and fair on both sides of the transaction." (refer to the testimonial for 55 Chemin Stevens, East Stanstead).
