A well-built secondary suite can generate you income, help take the load off of your mortgage, and/or create safe and convenient living quarters for aging family members.
get a quoteA secondary suite is a self contained residential unit with a private kitchen, bathroom, sleeping and living area which is accessory to a primary dwelling on the property. Secondary suites are most commonly found in the basement of an existing house but may also be built as a separate structure in the backyard of a property, also called an ADU (additional dwelling unit), or garden suite, given the property is large enough to accommodate this option.
Whether you are looking to accommodate safe and convenient living quarters for aging family members, a first time home buyer looking for extra income to offset living expenses, or an investor looking to maximize ROI on your investment property, the benefits of a secondary suite can be very rewarding. A properly designed suite maximizing the best use of space can yield a high return on investment and cover a large percentage of mortgage costs. A legal secondary suite is the best way to increase the value of your home.
