Multi-family properties consist of two or more residential units within the same building, including duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, and apartment complexes. These properties generate rental income, appreciate in value over time, and provide an efficient way to scale a real estate portfolio.
Why Invest in Multi-Family Real Estate?
Consistent Rental Income: Owning multiple units ensures multiple revenue streams.
Enhanced Financing Options: Programs like MLI Select offer favorable loan terms for multi-family acquisitions.
Portfolio Expansion: Managing one property with multiple units is more efficient than handling multiple single-family rentals.
Tax Savings: Investors benefit from depreciation write-offs and deductible expenses.

A multi-family home is a property with two or more rental units. Common types include duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, and apartment buildings with multiple units.
A single-family home is designed for one household, whereas a multi-family home consists of multiple units that can be rented out to different tenants, creating multiple income streams.

The MLI Select Program provides longer amortization, lower down payments, and better financing terms for properties that meet CMHC’s scoring system based on affordability, environmental impact, and accessibility.
We conduct a pro forma financial analysis, factoring in cash flow, cap rates, appreciation potential, and expense ratios to ensure you make a profitable investment.
