Turning Pre-Demolition Property Worries into Income


A Hastings Sunrise House awaiting demolition



Imagine you have an old, rundown property that’s destined for demolition next year. It seems like a big, stressful task to turn it into a rental property, right? But what if you could earn rental income from your pre-demolition property BEFORE it's demolished AND avoid paying Empty Homes Taxes? Sunwise Property are the experts in quickly transforming pre-demolition spaces into vibrant homes, and they can help you do just that - making the process seem too easy to be true. 


A Success Story in Hastings Sunrise


Let's look at a recent success story. A 4-bedroom, 1800 sq/ft property in Hastings Sunrise was facing numerous issues. The house needed new heating, structural repairs, electrical and flooring upgrades, and more. It seemed like an overwhelming project for any homeowner.


But with Sunwise Property, the owners didn't have to worry. The team took on the challenge and worked their magic. The biggest hurdle was the decommissioned oil furnace. In Canada, a home needs a good heat source to survive the winter. Sunwise installed efficient infrared heating panels in each room. These panels use very little electricity but keep the house warm and cozy.


Step-by-Step Transformation


Sunwise Property didn't stop there. They fixed the damaged walls, repaired the outdated electrical system, and upgraded the insulation. Here's what else they did:


- Installed new LED lighting fixtures

- Repaired and insulated drywall

- Laid new carpet and hardwood flooring

- Updated appliances

- Painted the entire house

- Repaired plumbing and installed new toilets

- Added a new outdoor staircase



Hassle-Free Process for Owners


Sunwise Property also managed the rental process. They found qualified tenants who were thrilled to live in the house. The owners didn’t receive a single bill for the repairs or the rental management. Sunwise handled everything, saving the owners time and stress.


Smooth Transition for Tenants


As the lease term ended, Sunwise made sure the tenants were smoothly relocated, allowing the owners to proceed with their demolition plans on time.
