Welcome to 37 Donald Street - a beautifully updated, fully tenanted four-plex in the heart of Barrie. An exceptional investment offering a strong cap rate, immediate cash flow, and proven future upside. Units 2 and 3 have been completely renovated with brand-new bathrooms featuring modern showers, tubs, vanities and fixtures. The kitchens in these units have been fully refreshed with new flooring, updated fixtures and fresh paint, complemented by custom closets and elegant wainscoting that elevate the overall finish. Each of the four units enjoys its own private balcony, and an on-site coin-operated laundry facility adds tenant appeal along with a second stream of income. The location is already moving. Neighbouring properties have been redeveloped, positioning this asset to benefit from continued growth and rising values. So is the operating environment. Ontario's 2026 amendments to the Residential Tenancies Act are compressing timelines at the Landlord and Tenant Board - shorter arrears notice periods, tighter hearing procedures and a reduced review window - meaningfully lowering the carrying risk investors have shouldered in recent years. And for the buyer with a longer horizon: the fifth-unit threshold is where CMHC's MLI Select program begins, offering qualifying multi-unit properties up to 95% loan-to-value and amortizations as long as 50 years. Buyers are encouraged to satisfy themselves as to zoning, permitting and program eligibility. Meticulously maintained and fully leased, this turn-key four-plex delivers day-one returns in a rapidly improving neighbourhood.

Joe's Thoughts
Honest perspective from 30+ years of GTA real estate experience
Competitive Pricing
At $396/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.
Just Listed - Act Strategically
This property hit the market within the last week. In Barrie's current market, desirable homes often receive multiple offers within 5-7 days. If you're seriously interested, I recommend booking a showing immediately. However, never let urgency override due diligence - we'll still do proper inspections.
Excellent Flexibility
With 6 bedrooms, you have genuine flexibility. Beyond the master and kids' rooms, you can have a dedicated home office, guest room, hobby space, or even rental income potential. In today's work-from-home era, extra bedrooms add significant value. Properties with 5+ bedrooms are relatively rare in Barrie.
Bathroom Count Matters
With 4 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.
About Queen's Park
I know Queen's Park well from working with many buyers and sellers here. Each pocket has its own character - let me share what I've learned about this specific street and block. During our showing, I'll point out local amenities, school catchments, and what similar homes have sold for recently.
Investment Perspective
Looking at this as an investment: Barrie properties have averaged 5-7% annual appreciation over the past decade. Your estimated monthly carrying costs would be around $4,125 (mortgage, taxes, insurance). Consider whether you're comfortable with this as both a home and a financial commitment.
