More than buildings — we build communities.
Nelligan designs warm, sustainable, and human-centered spaces across Montreal.
Our story
More than buildings: a human mission.
Since our beginnings, we build warm, sustainable spaces connected to their neighborhood.
Our commitment: communities where people feel good, supported, and proud to belong.
The beginning
A human-centered vision
Manuel Després-Morin founds Nelligan with a conviction: real estate must serve people, not the other way around.
First acquisitions
Building trust
Our adventure began in 2017 with the acquisition and restoration of our first property. From the start, we were driven by the desire to create exceptional living spaces, combining innovation and quality.
Targeted expansion
Growing without losing humanity

Today

Nearly 1000 doors managed, a compact and committed team, vibrant and sustainable communities.
