OVERVIEW

Located in the heart of Vancouver’s desirable Marpole neighborhood, French Court Apartments presents a rare opportunity to acquire a well-maintained, 39-suite rental apartment building with significant upside potential. Constructed in 1986, this three-storey wood-frame property features a distinctive Colonial-style design with a large arched entrance leading to a private tiled courtyard, offering both charm and curb appeal. The building sits on a generous 20,976 SF parcel with 150 feet of frontage along French Street, just steps from the vibrant Granville Street commercial corridor. Tenants benefit from immediate access to grocery stores, restaurants, schools, parks, and frequent transit service connecting to Downtown Vancouver, YVR Airport, and Richmond. Marine Gateway and the Canada Line SkyTrain are only minutes away, enhancing connectivity across Metro Vancouver. French Court has undergone extensive capital improvements, including full window replacements, exterior façade upgrades, and renovations to over half the suites. Each unit is equipped with electric baseboard heating and individual hot water tanks, all recently replaced. Heat, hot water, and electricity are separately metered and tenant-paid, ensuring operational efficiency and reduced ownership costs. Current rents are approximately 40% below market, offering investors the opportunity to increase cash flow and yield through turnover and continued suite upgrades. With a historically stable occupancy rate and strong rental demand in Marpole, this asset is well-positioned for long-term growth. The area’s ongoing redevelopment, including the upcoming Marpole Community Centre and expanded public library, further enhances the investment appeal.
