Bio
François Paquin emerged as a successful leader in the Greater Montréal real estate industry after graduating from the Université de Montréal’s Law School in 1971. He began his career with United Trust in the Ottawa-Hull region, and quickly became one of the region’s most seasoned realtors. After two highly successful years with United Trust, he purchased a real estate brokerage firm, L.P. Dessureaults et Frères Ltée, where he supervised a team of more than 20 agents. In 1980, he returned to Montréal to join General Trust and was promoted to Vice-President of the I.C. & I. division in 1991. Mr. Paquin was admitted in 1992 as a Fellow with the Real Estate Institute of Canada (FRI) and completed his degree in real estate at the Université du Québec à Montréal in 1993. In 1993, François Paquin founded the Société Immobilière Élan International, taking with him several associates from General Trust (which then became La Capitale). In April of 2005, Élan International joined NAI Global with the help of Paul-Éric Poitras to carry on its expansion and better access the worldwide real estate market as NAI Commercial. Today, NAI Commercial has over 20 agents servicing Quebec companies as well as NAI Global International customers interested in investing in Quebec.
