Addendum
BRRR Opportunity -- Duplex with Major Value-Add Potential
8 René-Roger Street, Gatineau
Excellent BRRR opportunity (Buy, Renovate, Rent, Refinance) in a strategic Gatineau location, within walking distance to UQO and just minutes from Ottawa.

Following discussions with the City of Gatineau, it would be possible to extend the main-level unit into the basement to add:
2 additional bedrooms
1 additional bathroom
1 second living room / family room

Architectural plans already completed
Plumbing work completed according to code
Basement prepared for concrete slab
