Desjardins (Quebec's largest financial cooperative) and National Bank dominate the Quebec mortgage market with deeply localized products. Desjardins frequently offers competitive rates with simplified closing through their integrated notary network.

Montreal first-time buyers can claim a $5,000 rebate via the Home Ownership Program; other municipalities have their own programs. Montreal charges municipal welcome tax brackets that exceed the provincial rate at higher values (3% on portion above $1.034M), making total welcome tax on luxury Montreal properties materially higher than other QC cities.

Yes — most lenders offer a 90-120 day rate hold on a pre-approval, so a rising market can't catch you (and many honour a lower rate if they drop). Start a pre-approval — no bureau pull to begin — and we'll hold your best Gatineau rate.
