Killam Properties Inc. has bought a four-building portfolio in Ottawa for $24 million, the company announced.
“We’ve been looking for acquisition opportunities in Ottawa over the last four years, believing it to be one of the strongest cities for long-term investment in Ontario,” stated CEO Philip Fraser.
He added that the portfolio adds to Halifax-based Killam’s first real estate play in the Ottawa area, which was the acquisition of Kanata Lakes Apartments in early 2012.
