A move with a date
Sell a house because you are relocating
In shortYou can sell a Montreal house on a closing date that matches a move. There are no showings while you pack. The notary still has to be ready to sign on the day you pick.
A relocation is a date problem. A job starts, a school year starts, a parent needs you in another city, or you have already found the next place. A traditional listing asks the house to perform until a buyer’s conditions line up. A direct sale asks when you need to be gone. Bruce buys on the Island of Montreal and the surrounding areas, and the closing date is one you choose.
The date is the point
You send the address. You say the month you need. There is no open house while the boxes are out, no inspection condition, and no commission. You can leave what you do not want to move across the country. The notary still has to be able to sign on that day: title, adjustments of municipal and school taxes, and a hypothec payout if the price covers the balance. If your employer’s start date and the notary’s calendar do not match, the conversation is about the nearest day that does, not about a slogan that says “fast.”
People leaving Dorval because of a posting, or leaving a Dollard-des-Ormeaux split-level because the household is already elsewhere, do not need the house to look like a magazine. They need the keys to change hands. That is the deed. Possession follows what the deed says. You do not have to buy the next house and sell this one on the same traditional chain for this offer to make sense. This page will not tell you how to finance the next one. That is a different adviser.
What you are not promising the buyer, and what he is not promising you
You are not promising a repaired house. The offer is as-is, without the legal warranty, and the notary explains that clause. You are promising, if you sign, to deliver the title you have, on the date you agreed. Bruce is not promising that a particular Friday will survive a lender’s discharge or a missing certificate of location. He is promising the shape of the deal on the home page: no inspection, no commission, your date, leave what you want.

This is general information about how a sale usually works in Quebec. It is not legal, tax or financial advice, and it is not a promise about your price or your date. A notary — and, if your file needs it, a lawyer or a licensed insolvency trustee — applies the rules to your situation. Sending an address does not commit you to sell.
