What drives demand in Saint-Léonard
The borough's density, the Jean-Talon Street East commercial artery and the future metro extension are demand drivers to watch. The rental stock is dominated by duplexes, triplexes and apartment buildings, with commercial space on the main arteries. The arrival of the metro should not be taken for granted in a profitability calculation. A detailed analysis of income, expenses and the condition of the building remains essential.

My favourite spot in Saint-Léonard
Saint-Léonard Cavern (Caverne de Saint-Léonard)
Natural site
Beneath Pie-XII Park lies a cavern formed more than 15,000 years ago in 450-million-year-old limestone; new galleries were discovered there in 2017. Spéléo Québec runs guided tours in summer, a rare experience in the middle of the city.

Is the Blue line extension a good investment argument?
It is a major infrastructure project to follow, but it should not be counted on as a certainty in a profitability calculation. Base your decision on the building's current income and expenses.
