Montréal Property History Reports
Montréal property history reports pull from Ville de Montréal open data: issued building permits, year built and property usage from the unité d'évaluation foncière, the Plan d'urbanisme et de mobilité 2050 (PUM 2050) land-use designation, Communauté métropolitaine de Montréal flood zones, and fire station and hydrant proximity. Coverage is limited to Ville de Montréal, the 19 central boroughs.
What's Included in a Montréal Property History Report
Issued Building Permits
Complete issued-permit history from Ville de Montréal Open Data. The City publishes issuance date only, so every permit is labelled Issued. Current inspection or completion status is not part of the public feed, and the report discloses this directly rather than inferring status.
Land Use, Not Zoning
Montréal's 19 boroughs administer parcel-level zoning separately, so no single citywide zoning layer exists. The report instead shows the PUM 2050 city-plan land-use designation for the address, with a link to the relevant borough for detailed zoning.
Year Built & Usage, No Assessed Value
Year built and usage code from the Ville de Montréal unité d'évaluation foncière (assessment roll). No assessed dollar value is shown, in line with Quebec's Règlement sur le rôle d'évaluation foncière.
Flood Zone Context
Montréal is an island bounded by the St. Lawrence River and the Rivière des Prairies. The report checks the address against the Communauté métropolitaine de Montréal's regulated flood zones under RCI 2019-78 (plus hautes eaux connues).
Radon Risk
Quebec-specific radon prevalence context for the Montréal metro area, with a note on whether the home's construction year falls before or after Quebec's June 2022 province-wide radon rough-in requirement for new construction.
Fire & Hydrant Proximity
Distance to the nearest fire station and hydrant, sourced from Ville de Montréal open data.
Coverage Area
Property Proof reports Montréal addresses within Ville de Montréal only, the 19 boroughs that form the city itself, including Ville-Marie, Le Plateau-Mont-Royal, Rosemont, Villeray, Côte-des-Neiges, Notre-Dame-de-Grâce, Le Sud-Ouest, Ahuntsic, Hochelaga-Maisonneuve, Verdun, LaSalle, Saint-Laurent, Mercier, Anjou, Lachine, and Pointe-aux-Trembles. Demerged municipalities that operate as separate cities on the island, including Westmount, Mont-Royal, and Dorval, are not covered.
