Jean‑Philippe Boileau is a partner and notary practising with Fasken’s Real Estate group in Montréal. Real estate developers, property owners and investors turn to him for guidance on their mixed-use and large-scale real estate projects. His practice focuses on acquisitions, financing, and the development of mixed-use real estate projects involving residential, commercial, industrial, hotel and resort properties. His advice is most often sought out in multifaceted projects involving multiple uses, operators, legal regimes, ownership structures and divided property interests.
Real estate developers, property owners, hotel operators, recreational tourism operators, as well as public and private institutions, seek his counsel on real estate transactions, development strategies, heritage protection initiatives and land conservation projects. Families and individuals also turn to him for real estate matters requiring tailored solutions that reflect their long-term goals.
Organizations undertaking sophisticated real estate structures regularly seek his assistance on matters involving emphyteusis, superficies, divided co-ownership, servitudes (easements), shared service agreements and other real rights. He also has considerable experience in title searches and establishing real estate structures tailored to large-scale projects.
Hotel developers and operators frequently seek his assistance, particularly in connection with condo-hotel (hotel co-ownership) and resort projects. He is involved in several large-scale real estate projects in Québec and supports initiatives requiring coordination between various real estate, commercial and operational components. His practice also covers matters related to energy, infrastructure and fibre optic networks.
Prior to joining Fasken, Jean‑Philippe co-founded a legal services firm where he developed a practice focused on real estate, development and complex transactions. He holds a civil law degree from the University of Ottawa (LL.L., Magna cum laude), as well as a graduate degree in notarial law (D.D.N.) from the Université de Montréal.
