Calgary Small Multifamily: The Inputs That Move the Needle

Buyers usually pay up for clarity and push back hard on uncertainty. The cleanest outcomes come from verified income, realistic expenses, and terms aligned with the verification steps.

Buyer: Verify Income

Rent roll, leases, deposits, arrears, and who pays utilities. If it’s not documented, it’s not underwritten.

Buyer: Expense + Capex Reality

Taxes, insurance, repairs, vacancy, and reserves. Capex reality (roof/windows/mechanicals) can make or break returns.

Seller: Sell Certainty

Strong offers show up when buyers trust the file: unit details, rent roll, receipts, and simple disclosures.
