Candiac

A town born in 1957, designed from day one as a place to live, by the river.

Candiac is a young town, founded in 1957 and named after the Château de Candiac in France, where the Marquis de Montcalm was born. It was designed as a residential town, with parks and quiet streets.

It has established neighbourhoods of single-family homes and newer areas with townhouses and condos.

Candiac station is the end of the exo train line to downtown Montreal, and highways 15 and 30 meet nearby.

  1. The recent condoContingency fund, maintenance log, building by-laws: we read the condo documents before the offer.
  2. The new-home warrantyFor a recent build, we check the warranty registration and what it still covers.
  3. Highway noiseSome streets are close to highways 15 and 30. We also visit at rush hour.

The question to ask yourself

Is the Candiac train practical day to day?

For office hours downtown, often yes: you board at the first stop. Service runs mostly on weekdays at rush hour, so we check that it fits your schedule.
