A downtown Edmonton facility that is home to more than 130 of the city’s hard to house is up for sale, leaving both tenants and the facility’s operator anxious about what comes next.

Dwayne’s Home, located at 10209 100 Ave., was recently listed for sale, according to operator Brad Kamal, who currently rents the building.

Kamal said he and tenants learned what was happening when a large Institutional Property Advisors for sale sign was posted on the edge of the property’s parking lot Sunday. The real estate company declined to comment.

“We’d have to reach out to different agencies cause we don’t have a Plan B right now,” said Kamal. “We’re working on that, but it creates a little bit of stress because of the tenants.

“They see the sign and go, ‘Hey Brad, are you guys selling the place?’ I say, ‘Well, it’s not my place.'”

Formerly a backpacker’s hostel, the four-storey building at 102 Street and 100 Avenue has operated as a housing facility since 2013.
