Summerland-Magic Apartment Homes, Summerland British Columbia
Start Date: April 2025
​Expected Completion: Spring 2028

Secured Loan at 13% for Accredited Investors
Registered Funds Eligible

Up to four residential lots in downtown Summerland, British Columbia will be consolidated into a single land parcel. Multiple six storey rental apartment buildings will built on the site with a one storey parking garage underneath.  Each unit will have one to two bedrooms, or one bedroom plus den. Many of the apartments will be specifically designed to accommodate older citizens by including special-needs features such as handrails, wider doors, and robust backing in ceilings and walls for bed-lifts.
 
On-site ambulatory health care provided by a registered nurse dedicated to the facility. All units will be rental – no freehold ownership – which will allow us to tap into the federal government’s MLI Select program for construction financing. MLI Select allows developers to access generous financing from banks at up to 95% loan to value.
 
There is enormous demand for rental housing in Summerland. City officials have expressed enthusiasm for this project, which fits Redgum’s mission to ‘do well by doing good’. Redgum and its business partners will maintain ownership of the buildings after construction and continue as the landlord.

It resembles a rural location in the image, but this street is on the edge of Summerland's downtown core. All amenities are within easy walking distance. 

​The assembled lots have older, single family homes on them that will be removed to make way for the Summerland-Magic Apartment Homes.

RIVERBROOK ESTATES, Kitimat, British Columbia

Expected Completion: Fall 2027
Riverbrook Estates is 27.5 acres of undeveloped land in Kitimat, BC.

The proposed plan is to subdivide the 27.5 acres into five separate parcels and to sell these parcels to developers who will construct residential housing. Kitimat is a coastal town in northern British Columbia undergoing transformational change. Liquid natural gas (LNG) storage and export terminals are being built, allowing LNG to be piped from Alberta to the BC coast, and then to the world.

​Phase one of the $40-billion LNG Canada project is projected to be completed in 2025. The Kitimat terminal will create many new jobs for LNG staff and those workers will need a place to live. This project will feed into that demand.
