Offre | Offering Offering three months rent or $4515 for someone to take over my lease in the McGill/Plateau area for Jan 1 2027
Hi everyone, I’m looking to transfer the lease for my apartment at LaCité (3550 rue Jeanne-Mance) that runs until Dec 2027 (it auto-renewed on me by accident with no rent increase and I no longer need the apartment).
Since my landlord is not accepting three months of rent to break the lease I figured the best way to go about this is to pass on the benefit to someone else.
It's less than a 10-minute walk from McGill and Place-des-Arts metro station, at the intersection of the Plateau and downtown. Conveniently, there is elevator access to an underground mall with 2 grocery stores, a full commercial gym, a popular arthouse movie theatre, a pharmacy, restaurants, etc., making all your essentials during a Montréal winter accessible in T-shirts and shorts
The apartment is the larger model 2 1/2 located on the 26th floor with a view of Mount Royal. I am willing to offer $4,515, paid once the lease transfer is approved by the building management company, taking the effective rent down to $1,128 from the original $1,505 all-inclusive (heat, electricity, hot water, AC). If you prefer, I can also instead pay the first 3 months of the rent
This is an excellent deal for someone who wants an apartment in a great location at a discount for a year with some liquidity upfront. We can also discuss furnished options, if you're looking for a place that is move in ready I can give the living room, bed, table, etc.
Pets allowed, heated outdoor pool, sauna, 24h security, underground parking available for extra. Feel free to message me for more details and if you would like to book a visit!
