Financing and Cap Rate Considerations for Industrial Buildings in Burlington

Industrial real estate remains one of the most financeable commercial asset classes in Ontario, with lenders generally comfortable at higher loan-to-value ratios for well-located, modern buildings. Owner-occupier buyers may also qualify for SBL or CMHC-insured programs depending on the use.

In Burlington, industrial cap rates in most Southern Ontario markets remain among the tightest of any asset class due to persistent tenant demand, though smaller, older or functionally obsolete buildings can offer meaningfully higher yields. Local cap rates for Industrial Buildings currently sit around 4.5%–7%, with typical deal sizes in the $1M–$25M range.
