Calculate monthly condo fees per unit based on your budget and fractional shares. Free.
Quick Answer: condo fees in Quebec average $200 to $600 per month depending on the building's age, size, and amenities. The official calculation divides annual common expenses by each unit's fractional share. Use the calculator below to estimate fees based on your syndicate's actual expenses.
Condo fees (common charges) are the monthly contributions each co-owner pays to the syndicate to cover the building's common expenses. These fees typically include building insurance, common area maintenance, utilities (water, sewer), snow removal, administration, and the contingency fund contribution. Each unit's share is determined by its fractional share (quote-part) registered in the declaration of co-ownership. This free calculator lets you simulate different budget scenarios and see the impact on each unit's fees.
Article 1071 of the Civil Code provides that contributions to the contingency fund are set based on the recommendations of a contingency fund study projected over at least 25 years. During the promoter phase, the article sets a floor of 0.5 % of the building's reconstruction value. Some declarations of co-ownership additionally adopt a contractual floor (typically 5 % of the operating budget), which applies because the declaration sets the rule, not because the law imposes it. In practice, recent studies often recommend a contribution well above those floors for buildings over 15 years old.

Budgeting, invoicing, and payment tracking — all in one place for your syndicate.
The total annual budget is the sum of all expense categories. The average monthly fee per unit divides this total by 12 months and by the number of units (assuming equal fractions). The per-unit breakdown shows each co-owner's actual fees according to their fractional share. The reserve fund share indicates the percentage of the budget allocated to the fund — to be validated against the professional study under article 1071 C.C.Q.
