What drives demand in Oka
Oka is first and foremost a residential and recreational-tourism market, where the traditional rental stock is limited. The national park, the ferry to Hudson and the orchards support tourism activity, which may interest some accommodation investors, subject to municipal and provincial regulations. Farmland and orchards fall under agricultural zone rules. Each project must be analyzed case by case.
How I analyze a building
Gross rent multiplier (GRM)
The asking price compared to the building's income, and to similar sales in the area.
Comparable sales
Buildings recently sold in and around Oka, adjusted for condition and number of units.
Price per square foot
Useful for commercial properties and for comparing buildings of different sizes.
Municipal assessment
The ratio between the sale price and the municipal assessment, to help position an offer.
My favourite spot in Oka
Parc national d'Oka
National park
Covering nearly 24 km², the park brings together the beaches and marshes of the north shore of the lac des Deux Montagnes, silver maple groves where herons and wood ducks nest, and the Calvaire d'Oka on the hill. People come in summer for the beach and camping, and all year round for hiking, mountain biking or snowshoeing.
