Hey,
What can you tell me about this guys "Federal Real State Montreal"?
Are they the best option to rent in montreal?
They ask to much personal information like bank account # for the online application so it made me feel suspicious.
Great day,

The name and site are fishy.
There's nothing federal about this, it's a private company. A private company that masquerades as a public one and decorates a cheap web layout with tormenting jargon like 'we have cultivated a reputation'.

But as long as you have a lease, you've got little to worry about--well, other than what all tenants have to worry about. This may just be a very badly played out marketing idea from a decent organization.

I filled out an application for an apartment (in person with the super of the building, not online) and left the deposit. I waited three full weeks to hear back from them on the status of the application, only to call them myself and find out I had been denied. I had to make several phone calls to different people before someone got around to giving me an explanation.

Apparently they have extremely high standards for the credit search they run. I had one late student loan payment this year and that was enough for them to reject me for a $675/month apartment, even though I am employed full time and can well afford the apartment.

The woman I spoke to refused to acknowledge that maybe someone should have informed me that my application was rejected, and in fact was very rude about the entire thing. I was surprised and disappointed because they were going to allow me to go on waiting and waiting for how long? ... While $300 of my own money sat waiting for me in the super's apartment. She just dismissed me and said "Well whatever, I figured someone else did it." They rented the apartment in the meantime without ever giving me the courtesy of any notification.

The whole thing was very unprofessional and incredibly disrespectful.

Several of their apartments are listed as "pet friendly".

My wife was told that they would not accept our cat?

You are from an organization based in Montreal, abroad or self-employed, want to attain a certain level of notoriety and do not feel the need for permanent office space in downtown Montreal? Decision 1's Virtual Office option is right for you: it combines an array of services with the grandeur of 1 Place Ville Marie.
