Frequently Asked Questions

Why invest in Kitchener-Waterloo?

1) Great place to live and more affordable than the GTA
Modern transit, top schools and universities. It is the Tech hub of the north with an above average population growth. Properties are more affordable with higher cap rates than the GTA. This makes the ability to cash flow a property more likely, especially if we look at student housing options.

2) Government influx of funding and proposed policy changes
The Canadian government provided a $42M Housing Accelerator loan to Kitchener to help build over 37,000 higher density, affordable homes over the next decade. The city of Waterloo voted to explore amending a bylaw to allow construction of fourplexs in low density areas. The amendment would allow 4 units up to 4 stories on a single lot without having separate bylaw amendment permits. Waterloo has also opened up over 2700 hectares of land for new housing development. All of these government initiatives support investment in real estate within the region.
Best investing strategies for Kitchener-Waterloo
Of the Keyspire 4 ways to win, the forced appreciation and BRRR / Flip to yourself route is the 1st preferred option. Whether it is a complete renovation, adding units or increasing rents, forcing the appreciation of underperforming properties will provide the best opportunity for immediate returns.The 2nd preferred option is Buy and Hold especially for student rentals. Natural appreciation and demand for the area will also grow as interest rates adjust downwards over the next few years. If the numbers make sense, there will always be lenders willing to provide funds for your project.If you have any questions around investing in the Kitchener-Waterloo area, I’m happy to chat around how we can find a property that makes sense for you.
