This is a 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom triplex (that apparently brings in $6,000/month) on a 20 x 121 foot lot with 2 parking spaces.

Unlike the duplex down the street at 92 Givins Street, this is a legal (I assume because they didn't state otherwise) triplex.

And as you can see from these pictures, renters and agents CAN do a quick tidy that can make a huge difference to the listing.  Those kids toys look a LOT better on the table rather than on the middle of the living room floor...

92 Givins was on a similar sized lot but it was a little deeper.  Once tidied, probably would have looked like it was in similar shape, but it was only 2 units versus 3

That house was listed at $959,000.  It sold in 10 days for $###,###.

This house on the other hand was listed at $1,194,900.

It sold in 5 days...

For $1,178,000.

That is a $###,### difference!!!

Sure, it is legal triplex with an extra unit and doesn't sit on an alley....

But ummm, for that amount of a dollar difference...

It might have been worth 'encouraging' those renters to tidy at 92 Givins with a C note or two, if you know what I mean.
