BURLINGTON, ON, March 5, 2020 – On March 4, 2020, the Equiton Residential Income Fund completed the purchase of a 48-unit apartment building located in Toronto, Ontario.
The property consists of a single 3 ½ storey building located in the affluent Beaches neighbourhood of Toronto. It is situated on approximately 0.6 acres of land and the building totals approximately 26,000 square feet of area. Amenities include 51 surface parking spots and laundry facilities.
