Overview
Buy and hold as a rental building conversion or redevelop! Rare opportunity to acquire an 11,951 SF, RM-3 zoned development site improved with an exceptionally well-maintained 16-suite co-op apartment building in the heart of Vancouver’s Kerrisdale neighbourhood. The property features oversized suites, surface parking, ample storage, a roof-top deck and an ongoing maintenance and capital upgrades program. Given the ownership structure of the building, there will be no existing tenancies in place allowing the building to be rented at current market levels. The favourable RM-3 zoning also allows for redevelopment to market uses (condo / townhome) without going through the rezoning process.
