What should buyers check first on this listing?

Start with price, location, property type, land or strata context, condition, schools/transit, recent comparable sales and carrying costs; if redevelopment or multiplex potential matters, also review zoning, lot size, servicing and municipal rules.

Why does this listing matter to local buyers?

A listing should not be judged only by photos and asking price. It should be compared within Victoria, the neighbourhood, similar supply, transit, schools, carrying costs and future liquidity.

Can this page confirm redevelopment or multiplex potential?

No. This page can help with initial screening, but buyers must verify zoning, lot size, frontage, servicing, trees, slope, BC Assessment, title and municipal permit requirements.

Can AI analysis replace professional advice?

No. AI analysis is for faster context and market screening; final decisions should still rely on a realtor, lawyer, inspection, financing, tax and municipal due diligence.

Local Decision Guide

How should buyers evaluate 1736 Haultain St?

Start by reading this listing in its Victoria context: price, property type, land or strata setup, age, transit, schools, similar supply, carrying costs and resale liquidity should be considered together, not just photos and asking price.

What should be checked before writing an offer?

Recent comparable sales, competing active listings, days on market, price changes and current market pace.
Property condition, inspection risk, insurance, financing, tax, title and any disclosure documents.
For strata homes, review minutes, contingency reserve, special levies, rental rules and pet bylaws.

How do buyers find land with rebuild or multiplex potential, what should they watch, and how can returns be improved?

To find land with this potential, start with zoning, lot size, frontage, lane or driveway access, servicing, trees, slope, basement conditions, BC Assessment, title restrictions and municipal permits. The highest-return plan is usually not simply the maximum unit count; it is the best balance between approval risk, construction cost, rent or resale pricing, floor-plan efficiency, parking and holding period.

What does this page not replace?

It does not replace a realtor, lawyer, inspector, mortgage broker, insurance review, tax advice, strata documents, BC Assessment or municipal records. Use it to form better questions, then verify independently.

Remarks

Echoes of the Past, Looking to the Future. This Property proudly offers 7 bedrooms with 3 Accommodations, and a Country ambiance with City convenience. Huge 15,000 sq ft lot (100 x 150) GRD-1 Zoning. 1:6 promises a rich and varied future for the astute investor! Close to the RJH, Camosun, UVIC, and amenities. Walk score 99/100. A perfect holding property with excellent income PLUS a new furnace. Please do not bother the Tenants. Showings arranged only upon an accepted offer. The Seller has spoken with the City of Victoria and understand that due to their large double-sized lot plus proximity to key transport corridors, the following could be developed: Development Options: A. 8-10 townhouses sited within the original lot; up to 3 stories each B. Existing house could be moved to one side, and a 2nd single family dwelling could be built on the open half lot with potential for subdivision. C. Subdivision of the lot into 2 normal sized lots, and development of new single family dwellings on each lot, with additional infill carriage units; D. Maintain the house as a cash-flow positive rental unit; keep as a holding property E. Other options, to be explored and determined by the buyer: BACKGROUND: The property is Zoned General Residential District 1 which allows for a diversity of building forms ranging from residential infill with a 1.6:1 floor square ratio and 14 m building height. This permits a wide range of options including houseplexes, house conversions, 3-story townhouses etc, without requiring rezoning. More intense development is also possible and would see an increase in options for floor square ratio and height. The house has character/heritage value but is not on the Heritage register. It currently operates as a cash-flow positive multifamily tenanted rental property with 6 off-street parking spaces. A Rare Opportunity indeed. Buyer to verify all information and measurements, and satisfy themselves. (id:56153)
