For whom: the family or the investor
The house, for the family that wants its lot and no tenant: in Victoriaville, it sells faster than the plex and at the same ratio to the asking price, which means a comparable negotiation when buying. The plex, for whoever accepts a tenant upstairs or downstairs in exchange for a rent that pays part of the mortgage, and for the investor who counts in price per door: $158,750 against $366,000 for the house. An owner-occupied plex is bought with 5% down up to $500,000 (duplex) or 10% (triplex, quadruplex); without living in it, 20%. The trade-off is management, the Tribunal administratif du logement and leases that set the income: the median says nothing about those of the building you are looking at.
