Excellent triplex investment opportunity in the heart of East Galt. This solid brick property offers strong income potential in a high-demand rental area close to downtown, transit, parks, shopping, and schools. The property requires updates and improvements to maximize rental potential, and the pricing reflects its current condition, presenting a compelling value-add opportunity for investors looking to enhance performance and build long-term equity. The building is being sold AS IS, WHERE IS. The basement unit is partially finished, not currently rented, and will need to be completed prior to occupancy. There has been water penetration in the basement area that will require remediation, allowing buyers to address the issue and incorporate completion of the space into their renovation plans. Two of the three units are currently tenanted; vacant possession of the tenanted units will be provided on closing. The prominent corner location near Main Street and Lincoln Avenue enhances long-term value and future redevelopment potential. The land containing the detached garage is subject to a severance and is being offered separately on MLS as a land sale. A severance application is currently in progress to create two distinct parcels. This listing relates only to the triplex building and does not include the portion of land proposed to be severed, which is being offered separately at its own list price. All severance details are subject to municipal approval. Please refer to the drawing in supplements for separate lot measurements. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a standalone multi-unit asset with clear upside through renovation, stabilization, or future redevelopment, while distinctly separating two independent real estate offerings.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $466/sqft, this is priced below the area average. This could represent genuine value, but let's investigate why. In my experience, underpriced homes often have deferred maintenance, unfavourable layouts, or motivated sellers. I'll help you determine which it is.
Negotiation Opportunity
At 111 days on site, this property has exceeded the typical selling timeline for Cambridge. This creates leverage for buyers. The seller may be motivated by carrying costs, life circumstances, or previous deals falling through. I'd recommend a strategic offer below asking with terms that favour you.
Family-Friendly Layout
4 bedrooms hits the sweet spot for most families. You'll have room for 2-3 children plus a home office or guest room. This is the most sought-after configuration for families relocating to Cambridge. Good resale value as demand remains consistent.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 3 bathrooms, morning routines are much smoother. Multiple bathrooms significantly improve daily livability and are a major selling point for resale. Buyers consistently pay more for adequate bathroom counts - this is a strong feature.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Cambridge properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $2,913 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
Let's See It Together

I'll also share what comparable homes have sold for and help you craft a winning strategy if you decide to move forward.
