The commercial sublease market exploded in 2020 largely because of the pandemic. The island of Montreal market was particularly affected, that of the South Shore remained resilient. We fell back into confinement at the start of the year. Will we see other sublet office opportunities appear on the market? Everything suggests that yes, several companies have let their employees know that the return to the office will not be before 2022. Could the vaccine give companies confidence and withdraw their sublet space from the market? If the wave is controlled at the beginning of the summer and the government restriction decreases, it is possible to believe in a real return to reality and therefore companies that have not succeeded in subletting their office space could want to recover them.
