Zack Brittain joins us to walk through three exciting projects that showcase the art of growth, stability, and innovation in real estate investing.
In this episode, we explore:
1. Acquiring a 34-Unit Building in London with only 5% down
- How 5% down and affordable-rent strategies (40% of units) made the math work
- The deal structure, corporate setup, and the insider journey—from sourcing to closing
2. Stabilizing a Larger Multi-Unit in Ontario
- Tackling maintenance and clearing out lingering issues
- Building strong tenant communication and setting up efficient systems
3. Launching a New Infill Project in Downtown Kitchener
- Why building new—instead of renovating—can be smarter for investors and tenants alike
- The GP/LP deal structure behind this project
- How it’s win–win for everyone: investors, the community, and future residents
- Project specifics: 10 stacked townhomes near the LRT, with 4 × 3-bed, 4 × 2-bed, 2 × 1-bed units, plus parking and purpose-built amenities
Zack’s insight will inspire anyone scaling portfolios or exploring new multifamily ventures.
