North Shore

The North Shore of Greater Montreal is the fastest-growing housing market in Quebec. Laval (Chomedey, Sainte-Dorothée) combines metro access and Carrefour Laval. Blainville and Terrebonne are mature family towns. Mirabel has the strongest population growth in the province. And Mascouche, Dora's priority zone, mixes affordable prices, plenty of new construction (Quartier 7, Jardins du Coteau), and train access via the Train de l'Est. For first-time buyers and investors, the North Shore offers the best price-to-value ratio within an hour of Montreal.
