Urbanfund Corp. Announces Signing of Purchase Agreement to Acquire 585 Suite Portfolio in Kitchener

Mitchell Cohen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Urbanfund Corp. (TSX VENTURE:UFC) (the "Company"), confirmed today that the Company has entered into a conditional Purchase Agreement with an arm's length party for the acquisition of 7 apartment buildings and 54 rental townhouses with a total of 585 suites located in Kitchener and Toronto, Ontario.

The total purchase price is approximately $53,407,000 prior to customary adjustments. The properties included in the transaction are free and clear of existing mortgages and it is the intention of Urbanfund to secure Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC)-insured first mortgage financing.

"This acquisition confirms our continuing strategy of purchasing quality multi-family residential properties", stated Mitchell Cohen. "It is not often that you find a portfolio of solid performing real estate assets like this and especially in geographical areas of historical low vacancy rates". The transaction is conditional on Urbanfund completing due diligence, securing CMHC first mortgage financing and satisfying any shareholder and regulatory requirements (including approval of the TSX Venture Exchange). Closing is expected to take place in late December 2009.

"The assets are all well maintained, professionally managed and have low vacancy rates", stated Cohen. "The limited amount of balconies, elevators and underground parking garages will benefit our operating costs and future capital expenditures".
