Key Points

  • CAPREIT's strategic acquisition and sale of multifamily properties reflect a targeted approach to enhancing their portfolio with newer, premium assets.
  • The Shaw neighborhood's rezoned and shovel-ready site presents a prime opportunity for developers to meet the increasing demand for urban multifamily housing.
  • High land and construction costs pose significant challenges across commercial real estate sectors, pushing developers to focus on acquisitions and operational efficiencies over new builds.
