Excellent Investment!!! Buy this property and pay no HST and get a home on 2 legal lots with separate titles! Sitting on this corner of Clarke & McDougall, this home is close to all amenities and a great location for new development. Purchase this property and either keep the house and build a new house next door or use this opportunity to build two new houses. Two lots for under $480,000 – you can’t beat that!! Whether it means renovating the current house and building a new one on the other lot included or whether is means building two new houses one on each title – we have all the tools and experience to get this property working for you.
