City of Montréal – tax sale auction

What they sell

Properties with unpaid municipal taxes or transfer duties.

Area

Marché Bonsecours, 350 Saint-Paul St. East (Old Montréal).

Format

Live outcry auction, in person: bidders announce their bids at a microphone; the property goes to the highest bidder after three calls.

Observed frequency

Once a year, in November. 2026 sale: November 2 at 10 a.m. (arrive from 8:30 a.m.).

The property list is published in September and updated until the sale; owners can pull their property by paying before the sale. The former owner keeps a one-year right of redemption: they can buy the property back by repaying the price plus 10%.

Dates, locations and terms change often. Always confirm directly with the auction house or agency before you travel or bid. Montréal Auctions is not affiliated with any organization listed here and sells nothing.
