What kind of act do you need?

Different acts need different expertise. Pick the closest - you can add detail next.

Type of act*

In Quebec, notaries handle most of these. In common-law provinces, real estate closings are typically handled by lawyers.

This field is required

Property closing details

Your role*

In Quebec, the same notary typically acts for both parties at closing (officier public, neutral). In common-law provinces (ON/BC), buyer and seller usually each retain their own closing lawyer. FSBO sellers often pay both sides, since no broker mediates.

Buyer Seller Both (FSBO)

This field is required

Property type*

Condos add a syndicate of co-owners review (déclaration de copropriété, état financier du syndicat). Plexes require lease verification for each unit. Raw land has no title-search history but heavier zoning checks. Each affects notarial fees.

This field is required

Property value (CAD)*

Notary fees scale with property value. Ballpark is fine.

This field is required

Closing date*

Target date from the purchase agreement. Notaries need lead time for title search.

This field is required

Is a real estate broker involved?

Yes No

This field is required

New mortgage on this property?

Yes No

This field is required

Mortgage act details

What do you need?*

Discharge (radiation) is the simplest and fastest act - confirms a paid-off mortgage is removed from the registre foncier. Refinance/replacement requires a full new act + discharge. Assumption (transfer) requires lender consent first.

This field is required

Mortgage amount (CAD)*

Notarial fees scale with the principal amount registered (governed by tarif des frais de justice in Quebec). Round to nearest thousand.

This field is required

Have you already chosen a lender?

If not, check the Finance petal first - we can refer lenders who compete for your rate.

Yes No

This field is required

Will / POA / mandate details

What do you need?*

A notarized will (testament notarié) is registered in the CNQ registre des testaments and cannot be lost or contested for form. A mandat de protection (Quebec) only takes effect if a court declares incapacity. Bundling a will + mandate at once usually saves 20-30% vs separate acts.

Will (testament) Mandate in case of incapacity (QC) POA - financial POA - health (common-law provinces) Living will / advance directive

This field is required

Complexity*

Simple = single residual heir + no business / cross-border. Multiple heirs/conditions multiplies clauses. Testamentary trust requires fiduciary structuring. International heirs trigger conflict-of-laws analysis (especially Quebec/France/civil-law jurisdictions).

Estate settlement details

Your relationship to the deceased*

Only the named liquidator (or court-appointed equivalent in common-law) can engage the notary on behalf of the estate. If you're not the liquidator, your inquiry helps the notary advise on next steps (renunciation, contesting, etc.).

🔒 This answer is shared anonymously with businesses that may make an offer.

Named liquidator / executor Spouse Child Other heir

This field is required

Is there a will?*

A notarized will is fastest - it's already in the CNQ registre des testaments and skips probate (vérification testamentaire). Holograph or witnessed wills require court verification (~$300-800 + 2-6 weeks). Intestate (no will) follows the Quebec Civil Code's default scheme.

Marriage / cohabitation contract

Contract type*

In Quebec, marriage without contract = société d'acquêts by default. A separation-of-property contract must be notarized BEFORE the marriage to take effect. Cohabitation agreements (union de fait) are increasingly important since common-law couples have weaker default protections in Quebec than elsewhere in Canada.

Pre-marriage contract Separation of property Cohabitation agreement Separation / divorce agreement

This field is required

Joint assets involved?

Yes No

This field is required

Corporate act details

What do you need?*

Quebec incorporation (Loi sur les sociétés par actions du Québec) registers with REQ; federal incorporation (CBCA) registers with Corporations Canada and lets you operate Canada-wide under the same name. Notaries handle the constitutive act + minute book; share transfers and shareholder agreements need active updating.

This field is required

Number of shareholders

This field is required

Act context

Describe what you need notarized/authenticated*

Be precise - certified copy (copie certifiée conforme), affidavit/déclaration sous serment, signature authentication, apostille for foreign use. Each has different fees and turnaround. If the document is for use abroad, mention the destination country (apostille requirements vary).

This field is required

Context & urgency

Do you already have a lawyer or notary working on this?

If yes, a second opinion or co-counsel can still bid. If no, this is a fresh mandate.

Yes No

This field is required

How urgent?*

Notaries need lead time for title search (recherche de titres) and document preparation - this week is tight for a real-estate closing. Wills/mandates can usually fit a 1-2 week window. For a hard deadline (closing date locked), say so in additional notes.

This week Within 2 weeks Within a month Flexible

Before you post — please confirm:

I understand this service is FREE for me as a consumer. Vendors pay a disclosed platform access fee on matched transactions — this is never passed through to me as a hidden charge. I understand that local businesses in my region (offers from businesses whose licence Bidit has verified are marked) will submit sealed blind bids. I see all bids; vendors see only their own. I am free to choose any bid or none — no contract forms until I select one. My contact information is shared only with the vendor I choose, not with the others.
