Montreal
Houses for filming in Montreal
Productions look for houses to portray everyday life: kitchens, living rooms, bedrooms, residential facades. Authenticity often matters more than luxury.
The city's architectural diversity makes it a rare canvas: Plateau triplexes, Griffintown lofts, the Victorian facades of the Golden Square Mile, Sud-Ouest alleyways, Mile End storefronts. A single neighbourhood can serve as a set for a local comedy or an international production.

Quebec’s tax credit, leading studios, and a bilingual talent pool make Montreal a North American hub. The city frequently doubles for European or American cities, which multiplies the need for real locations and the opportunities for owners.
Montreal shoots in both languages and draws local productions as well as international shoots. Crews are constantly looking for varied, authentic locations here, from a residential home to an industrial loft, usually for a few days at a time.
What productions look for in a house
A house can be the main set for several days or appear for a single scene. Crews value spacious rooms, natural light, nearby parking, and the freedom to move furniture. An ordinary bungalow is sometimes more in demand than a prestige property, because it matches what the story is telling.

How much does renting a house for a shoot in Montreal cost?
A house in Montreal typically rents for $500 to $2,000 per shoot day. The amount depends on the space, the production, the crew size, and how many days are booked. You set your own rate, and every request states the budget before you accept.
What productions rent houses in Montreal?
Productions look for houses to portray everyday life: kitchens, living rooms, bedrooms, residential facades. Authenticity often matters more than luxury. In Montreal, film, television, advertising, music video, and photo shoots all request these spaces, usually for one to five days.
Do I have to be present during the shoot?
That is your choice. Many owners stay on site, others hand over access for the day. Every booking is covered by a signed contract and insurance, and you set the house rules in advance.
What if my house is not glamorous?
That is often an advantage. Productions need spaces that feel real, not staged. An ordinary, authentic house in Montreal is frequently more useful to a story than a prestige property.
