A large borough in the northwest of the island, built in layers: post-war bungalows and split-levels, the planned townhouses and condos of Bois-Franc, and newer condo buildings near the metro. One of the island's main employment centres, with the end of the Orange line and the REM's Deux-Montagnes branch running through it.

Works at Technoparc, in the aerospace and life-sciences firms along Côte-de-Liesse, or downtown by the Orange line. Wants a short commute and parking, and is usually comparing Saint-Laurent with Ahuntsic and Côte-des-Neiges.
Commute-drivenLeaving a condo for a bungalow, a split-level or a Bois-Franc townhouse. Looks at schools in both languages, parks and sports centres. Gets noticeably more space per dollar than in NDG or Côte-des-Neiges.
Space per dollarBuilt from the 1990s on the land of the former Cartierville airport. Townhouses, low-rise condos and parks were laid out together, and the Bois-Franc REM station sits on its edge. The stock is consistent and the streets are quiet, which helps it hold value.
The most transit-convenient condo stock in the borough, close to the Orange line terminus and Place Vertu. Buyers trade some quiet for the metro at their door. This is where condo buyers have the most choice and the most room to negotiate.
Bungalows and split-levels from the 1950s and 1960s on generous lots. Some are untouched, others fully rebuilt, and the price gap between the two is large. Condition drives the comparison more than the street does.
Highways 13, 15, 40 and 520 cross or border the borough, and parts of it sit under Trudeau airport flight paths. Noise exposure changes from one street to the next and is easy to miss on a weekend visit.
Single-family sales and prices are both up. Condo listings have grown much faster than condo sales, and the condo median has barely moved. A buyer who reads the borough average gets the wrong strategy for both.
Condos take about two months to sell here. In buildings with several units listed at once, the unit that has been on the market longest is usually the one with room to negotiate.
Highway, rail and aircraft noise is the most common surprise after a purchase in Saint-Laurent. I check a property against traffic and flight paths before a client makes an offer.
Buying a condo near the metro or moving up to a house in Bois-Franc, a 30-minute call is the fastest way to see what your budget buys here.
