Edmonton Multifamily Guidance: 2–4 Units + 5+ Buildings

The best multifamily outcomes usually come from the fewest unknowns: documented income, realistic expenses, and a clean verification path. Use the framework below to keep decisions defensible — and negotiations calm.

2–4 Units: Underwrite Like an Investor

Rent roll, leases, deposits, arrears, and utility responsibility per unit. “Market rent” is not rent unless it’s supported.

5+ Buildings: Expense + Systems Reality

Pressure-test operating statements, utility structures, capex (roof/mechanicals/parkade), and compliance risk. Bigger buildings fail on details.

Seller: Sell Certainty

Strong offers show up when buyers trust the file: rent roll, leases, utility history, maintenance notes, and simple disclosures.

Edmonton Multifamily FAQ

What’s included in “Edmonton multifamily properties”?
Everything multifamily: duplex, triplex, fourplex, row-style multi-unit, and 5+ unit apartment buildings (and similar investor-grade configurations) within Edmonton.
How do I avoid “paper cash flow” in Edmonton deals?
Underwrite only verified income, confirm utilities and meter structures, and budget realistic vacancy + capital reserves. If it’s not documented, it’s not underwritten.
What’s different when evaluating a 5+ unit building?
The focus shifts to operating statements, utility structures, capex systems (roof/mechanicals/envelope), and compliance risk. Bigger buildings tend to succeed or fail on expense reality and deferred maintenance.
What should sellers prepare before listing a duplex/fourplex or an apartment building?
A clean file: rent roll, leases, deposits, utility history, receipts for major items, and clear unit notes. This reduces buyer uncertainty and protects terms. Start with Get Free Home Value.
