The good reasons to live in Saint-François and Saint-Vincent-de-Paul, and the reasons to hesitate, said before the visit rather than after, by a team that sells there.
Living in Saint-François and Saint-Vincent-de-Paul, the pros and cons. Pros: Space and countryside twenty kilometres from downtown, the Rivière-des-Mille-Îles park, at the lowest price in east Laval. Laval's strongest five-year rise (+43%) for a median still under $560,000. Cons: Rural and quiet: no train, no metro, no condos or shopping street; everything is by car. Highway 25 to Montreal is tolled, and the eastern bridges are saturated at rush hour. For families who want space, countryside twenty kilometres from downtown and a great park, at eastern Laval's lowest price; for those working in eastern Montreal or Terrebonne via Highway 25. Less so for those who want a train, a metro, a condo or a shopping street: eastern Laval is rural, calm and lived by car, toll included.
These are the points buyers report to us after visiting, not flaws on principle: each one weighs differently depending on whether you work downtown or remotely, own one car or two, have children or not. For a specific street, three things get checked on site before offering: the school catchment, the flood zone and the noise at rush hour.
