  • Trusted Developer

    Pinemount Developments is a Toronto based real estate development and management firm, driven by the expertise and personal attention of the firm’s principals and focused on the significant long-term opportunities of the rental housing market in Southern Ontario.

    The Strength of Purpose-Built Rental

    As a purpose-built rental (PBR) project, Pinemount West Oak Trail is well-positioned in today’s market. PBR developments provide stable, long-term rental income and are not subject to the volatility of the condo resale or pre-construction market. Professionally managed and designed with sustainability in mind, these buildings offer durable construction, efficient operations, and strong tenant retention—making them resilient assets in uncertain economic environments.

    Market Conditions Favouring Rental Development

    The current housing market strongly supports the shift toward rental-focused projects. As pre-construction buyers exit the condo market, demand is shifting toward well-located rental housing—creating a supply gap that PBR is uniquely positioned to fill.

    Policy and Financing Tailwinds

    Pinemount West Oak Trail benefits from strong government support and favourable financing. Recent initiatives—such as HST exemptions for new PBR developments, the elimination of minimum parking requirements, development charge reductions and deferrals, and rent control exemptions for post-2018 builds—enhance project viability. In addition, CMHC-insured financing of up to 95% of project costs significantly reduces required equity and improves overall return potential for investors.

  • Located in the heart of South Kitchener, this project sits on the final piece of undeveloped land within the well-established, master-planned Rosenberg community. Surrounded by primarily low-rise housing—detached homes and townhouses—with only one other apartment building nearby, the site offers a low-density, residential setting ideal for renters seeking a more suburban lifestyle.

    The area is undergoing significant growth in amenities and infrastructure. The brand-new, 17,000 sq. ft. Williamsburg Community Centre is set to open in Fall 2025, while the state-of-the-art Kitchener Indoor Recreation Complex will launch at nearby RBJ Schlegel Park in 2026. Nature lovers will appreciate direct access to 250 acres of protected forest and 7 km of scenic trails at Huron Natural Area. Plus, with Highway 401 just a 10-minute drive away, residents enjoy excellent regional connectivity for work and leisure.
