Invest in Downtown Dartmouth

Properties Include:

Core 5 PIDs (subject of SUBDIV-2024-00018 subdivision application)

  • 323-325 Portland St (PID 00220673) – Side-by-side duplex  
  • 327 Portland St (PID 00220665) – Over/under duplex (subdivision upgrades completed)  
  • Vacant land between 327 & 331 Portland (PID 41481516)  
  • 331 Portland St (PID 00220657) – Single-family home (interior demo completed)
  • 10 Maynard St (PID 00220699) – Fully renovated single-family  


Bonus Pair – 14 + 16 Maynard (independent consolidation opportunity):

  • 14 + 16 Maynard St (PIDs 41067273 & 41067281) 
  • 16 Maynard currently has an older single-family home; 14 Maynard has a garage. 

Current Income & Buy-and-Hold Potential

Market rent potential is approximately $185,000 per year:

  • The five occupied buildings currently generate $117,750 gross annual rent ($9,812/month). 
  • At market rent for similar properties, these units could reach approx. ~$141,600 per year.
  • Renovating 331 Portland adds significant upside: 
    • As a single family home, approx ~$24,000/year
    • As a duplex, approx  ~$46,000/year 
  • Fully stabilized gross rent for the entire accumulation would then be approximately ~$185,000 per year.


All current rents are base rent only — tenants pay their own utilities. Two fixed-term leases and four periodic leases all at near market levels.  This mix delivers reliable immediate cash flow for buy-and-hold or owner-occupier buyers, while giving developers full flexibility to redevelop on their own timeline.

Phased Redevelopment and Cash Flow Advantage

Buyers can maintain strong cash flow from the occupied core buildings while pursuing one or more of the following strong opportunities: 

  1. Combine 14 + 16 Maynard into one large ~6,600 sq ft lot for maximum ER-3 density (qualifies for up to 8 units as-of-right) and significantly higher rental income. This option is independent of the core-5 subdivision and provides immediate high-density potential. Variance may also be sought to build on 14 Maynard alone.
  2. Update the subdivision plan to current ER-3 specifications and redraw property lines to create an additional building lot and new units, potentially leveraging the vacant land between 327 and 331 Portland.
  3. Maintain and expand existing buildings with new units. 

Development & Re-Subdivision Upside

ER-3 zoning allows up to 8 units per lot (depending on final lot configuration and size).  

  • Zzap Feasibility Study (2022/2023) provides a strong foundation showing efficient 4-unit massing and shared parking concepts, maximizing previous density options.  
  • Significant pre-work already completed (survey of core properties, feasibility study, and initial subdivision application).  
  • Phased redevelopment possible while maintaining rental income from the occupied core buildings.
  • New zoning may allow more efficient buildings than the feasibility plan. 

Location Highlights

  • Steps from Five Corners on the busy Portland Street rapid-transit corridor. 
  • Walking distance to P-6 Hawthorn School, P-9 Dartmouth South Academy, NSCC Ivany Campus, Penhorn Mall Transit Station, Downtown Dartmouth, shops and restaurants.
  • Strong demand from renters, families and working professionals
