About Jim Lafitte

As a licensed REALTOR®, Jim works in tandem with Darryl Watty to drive the best overall experience for their clients by offering timely and responsive assistance, as he constantly strives to remain on the cutting edge of what is available in the Kitchener-Waterloo real estate market to help clients make enjoyable and profitable real estate decisions. Jim has lived and worked in the Waterloo Region for over 8 years, originally coming to the area to attend Wilfrid Laurier University, and quickly realized that this was a community that he wanted to settle long-term to enjoy the small town feel, with all the amenities that can be enjoyed in a big city. Jim acquired his first real estate acquisition while attending University. Not only purchasing his own investment property, Jim also started his career by working full-time in local residential real estate brokerage and quickly established himself as a go-to staff member for many REALTORS®. Real estate has always been a calling for Jim, and he enjoys his affiliation with the Chestnut Park West brokerage, and his close relationship with Darryl Watty.

404 KING Street W Unit# 524, Kitchener, Ontario

404 King Street W Unit# 524

Kitchener, Ontario

The epitome of a central DTK lifestyle – the historic Kaufman Lofts at 404 King Street West, Kitchener, serve as a template for the dozens of condo developments that have followed in their footsteps over recent years, and still set an example that’s very tough to beat today. Unit 524 presents a rarely-offered layout that maximizes every inch of this one-bedroom plus den, one-bathroom, 845 square-foot floorplan. A flood of south-western light, gleaming carpet-free polished concrete floors, towering 13-foot-plus ceilings, and a distinctly chic urban feel all help to characterize what’s on abundant display here. Airy and open-concept, an extensive foyer leads visitors past the tidy four-piece washroom and into the den – a sizeable, very flexible space which offers the chance for WFHers to enjoy a commute measured not in minutes, but seconds. Hang a left, and take in a stylish kitchen that provides plenty of prep space, taking special note of the gleaming granite countertops and island, as well as all that pot-lighting way above your head. An open living/dining space features plenty of built-in shelving on either side of the cozy electric fireplace (great for our colder months), plus a direct walkout to an exclusive and very long balcony five stories above Waterloo Region’s primary artery of King Street. The private primary bedroom is your retreat, and boasts a generously proportioned walk-in closet of its own. With the LRT quite literally a stone’s throw from your unit, the forthcoming regional transit hub right around the corner, and dozens of prominent offices (including Google), retailers, restaurants, and civic amenities only a few minutes away by foot, it’s not hard to see why the DTK lifestyle appeals to so many.
