In E085, I'm joined by Zac Willms and David Hulshof to review a six-unit turnkey apartment building in Ontario. Zach is the listing agent for this fully renovated property, which features new electrical, plumbing, flooring, and kitchens. The building is designed for CMHC's MLI Select program, focusing on energy efficiency, but recent rule changes mean the current owner can't refinance, offering a great opportunity for a new buyer.
The 1950s or 1960s brick building has a flat roof and separate hydrometers. Heat is managed through unit heat pumps with backup baseboard heating. Located in Thorold, it's close to Brock University and new developments, making it attractive for renters.
Financially, the property brings in $10,200 monthly from rent, with potential for increases. Additional income could come from laundry facilities. Taxes are estimated at $7,700 annually post-renovation.
Due diligence, including environmental assessments, appraisals, and building condition analyses, is crucial. While initial cash flow isn't huge, the property offers a stable investment with significant upside due to quality renovations and a strategic location. This episode highlights the importance of a thorough, methodical approach to multifamily investing, focusing on stable, lower-risk opportunities with steady returns and future growth.
