Inside the home
This is a side-by-side brick duplex in Eagle Place, close to the Wilfrid Laurier Brantford campus and downtown. Both units are vacant, which means you can set rents from day one or occupy one side while renting the other. The lower unit has a heavily dated kitchen with original 1960s cabinets and worn carpet in the bedrooms — it needs a full cosmetic renovation before it will command top rents. The upper unit is in better shape, with newer laminate floors in the bedrooms and a functional kitchen, though both bathrooms across the property are dated and due for replacement. The electrical panel has been upgraded and the furnace is newer. A new cedar privacy fence wraps the rear yard. The roof shows visible wear and should be evaluated before closing. Price this project realistically — there is real work ahead before either unit performs at its potential.
