Triplex for Sale in London Ontario

Those in search of an investment property in London, Ontario, may want to include a triplex for sale London Ontario. Though not quite as available or popular as the smaller duplexes or larger quads, triplexes can make an attractive investment whether you choose to live in a unit as “landlord” or operate it as purely an investment property.

Original Construction Triplex or Converted?

While you will find triplexes originally constructed as three units in London Ontario, it is more likely you will come across larger, older homes in London that have been converted into three units. There are some important distinctions. Converted triplexes for sale in London Ontario may have shared entrances for one. It will also be important to determine to what extent utilities have been separated. In some cases, water, and perhaps even electric may still be under one account. This will force an owner to include utilities in the rent, or undertake the expenses of having separate breaker boxers and circuits installed. Homes originally constructed as triplexes will likely already have separated utilities.

What to Consider in a Triplex for Sale in London Ontario

While location, amenities, age and condition are critical in the purchase of a triplex in London Ontario, a buyer will also want to be aware of the property's cash flow, historic occupancy rate, and if some minor improvements may increase your return on investment. Of course, the better the neighbourhood, the more preferred the location and the higher quality the property is the higher the rent can be set. Keep in mind, some properties are being rented at rates far below market value, because an owner may not have wanted to increase rent on long-term tenants. Others may generate higher rental rates with some simple, cost-effective improvements. A triplex for sale London Ontario can offer hidden opportunities.
