Abbotsford Flex Office Building Sells for $5.95M at 4.0% Cap

A two-storey flex office building at 33376–33386 South Fraser Way in Abbotsford’s Historic Downtown sold for $5,950,000.

  • Sale Price: $5,950,000
  • Price/SF: $413
  • Cap Rate: 4.0%
  • Building Size: 14,410 SF
  • Lot Size: 24,481 SF (0.562 acres)

The multi-tenant property sits on a 24,481 SF corner lot with frontage on both South Fraser Way and Roberts Avenue, and includes both surface and underground parking. Zoned C5 (City Centre Commercial), the site carries an Official Plan designation of Apartment under the Historic Downtown NCP, adding a longer-term redevelopment dimension to what is otherwise an income-producing flex office asset.

At $413/SF and a 4.0% cap rate, the sale reflects continued investor appetite for Fraser Valley commercial assets. For context, recent suburban office trades in the Metro Vancouver region have ranged from roughly $410–$925/SF depending on market, building quality, and lot size, with Abbotsford pricing generally sitting at a discount to Surrey and Delta.

The transaction was brokered by Momentum Realty.

A 16-unit low-rise apartment building known as Britannia View Apartments at 1150 Cotton Drive in East Vancouver’s Grandview-Woodland neighbourhood has sold for $5,067,000 — or approximately $317,000 per unit.

  • Sale Price: $5,067,000
  • Price/Unit: $317,000
  • Building Size: 16 units
  • Lot Size: 7,884 SF 

The property is a three-storey plus penthouse wood-frame building constructed in 1961, situated on a 7,884 SF corner lot with frontage on both Cotton Drive and William Street. The unit mix consists of five bachelor suites, nine one-bedroom units, one two-bedroom unit, and a bachelor penthouse suite. The building is zoned RM-4 and falls within the Grandview-Woodlands Community Plan, which designates the site for Residential Low-Rise with a long-term potential of up to six storeys under the Britannia Woodland Apartment guidelines.

 

1150 Cotton Drive is located in Vancouver’s Grandview-Woodland neighbourhood, zoned RM-4 with long-term redevelopment potential under the Grandview-Woodlands Community Plan.

Langley Automotive-Tenanted Retail Property Sells at 4.9% Cap Rate

A multi-tenant automotive retail property at 5948 200th Street in Langley has sold for $3,450,000.

The 9,090 SF single-storey building was constructed in 1961 on a 19,863 SF (0.46 acre) C-2 zoned site with 79 feet of frontage on 200th Street. The building is demised into three units, all leased to automotive tenants on triple net leases, including Langcity Brake & Muffler.

 

Details:

• Purchase Price: $3,450,000
• Price per SF: $380
• Cap Rate: 4.9%
• Building Size: 9,090 SF
• Site Area: 19,863 SF 

The purchaser is Triple A Custom Homes Ltd., a Richmond-based builder — a buyer profile that may suggest longer-term redevelopment interest beyond the current income stream. The property is located one block south of the Willowbrook Shopping Centre node and approximately 750 metres from the future Langley City Centre SkyTrain station, currently under construction with completion expected in 2029.

The $380/SF result sits below the $543/SF achieved in January 2026 on Langley Business Plaza — a multi-tenant Pharmasave-anchored building on nearby Fraser Highway — though the automotive subtype and older vintage account for the discount. The 4.9% cap rate is consistent with recent suburban Fraser Valley retail transactions, which have generally traded in the 4.9%–5.3% range for fully leased product.

The sale was brokered by Goodman Commercial Inc.

Denman Street Restaurant Property Sells for Nearly $2,000/SF

A single-tenant streetfront retail building at 1047 Denman Street in Vancouver’s West End has sold for $3,420,000 — or $1,966 per square foot — in what is one of the highest $/SF results recorded for a small-format retail property in the neighbourhood.

The 1,740 SF single-storey building, constructed in 1954, sits on a 2,178 SF (32 x 66 foot) C-5 zoned lot in the heart of Denman Village, steps from English Bay and Stanley Park. The property was fully occupied at the time of sale by Sushi Aboard, with a lease running through August 2029. The reported NOI was $70,013, implying a going-in yield of approximately 2.0%.

 

Details:

• Purchase Price: $3,420,000
• Price per SF: $1,966
• Building Size: 1,740 SF
• Tenant: Sushi Aboard
• Lease Expiry: August 2029
• NOI: $70,013

The sale price exceeded the $3,295,000 asking price, reflecting the competitive demand for freehold retail properties in high-traffic West End locations. Denman Street’s pedestrian traffic, tourism exposure, and position within Vancouver’s most densely populated neighbourhood support the significant premium.

The West End Community Plan designates Denman Village for mixed-use development up to 2.2 FSR and 60 feet in height, providing potential longer-term redevelopment optionality for the purchaser beyond the current income stream.

The sale was brokered by Sheldon Scott and Arjen Heed of Sitings Realty.
