What advice to expats in Montreal have about housing?

Answer this Question

When we asked people living in Montreal about the social scene there, they described it saying...

"1. It is important to research the different neighborhoods in Montreal to find the one that best suits your needs. 2. Consider the cost of living in each area and the proximity to amenities such as grocery stores, parks, and public transportation. 3. Make sure to factor in the cost of utilities, such as electricity, water, and heating, when budgeting for housing. 4. Be aware of the rental laws in Montreal, such as the requirement for a lease and the security deposit. 5. Consider the availability of furnished apartments, as this can be a great option for short-term stays. 6. Be sure to inspect the property thoroughly before signing a lease to ensure that it is in good condition. 7. Ask your landlord or real estate agent about the availability of parking, as this can be an important factor for many expats. 8. Be aware of the potential for noise in the area, as some neighborhoods can be quite noisy. 9. Consider the availability of public transportation, as this can be a great way to get around the city. 10. Make sure to ask about the availability of pet-friendly housing, as this can be an important factor for many expats," commented one expat who made the move to Montreal, Canada.
