Get The Most From Your Property
If you have an aging home that is in need of improvement, or you want to build a laneway home, garage suite, or accessory dwelling unit on your existing site, we will develop the best money making strategy.
With your address, we will research the zoning regulations for your parcel of land. Our free, no hassle consultation will go over your options including city planning requirements, subdivision details, and zoning laws. This will help give you a clear understanding of what long term planning you can do.
Your personal goals might be to create or increase income from a rental unit, reduce long term utility costs, improve your personal quality of life, keep family close or remain in a community where you are comfortable, all while increasing the value of your property.
No matter what your goals, By Design Construction will work with you to create the right roadmap from where you are now to where you dream of being.
Unlock Your Home's Potential
Increase Equity & Property Investment
If you have owned your home for a long period of time, there is a good chance you have equity. Sometimes simply unlocking the potential of that equity makes sense from an investment perspective.
You love your home, and don't want to move. Do not let property development opportunities pass you by. BDC Homes undertakes many projects that use financing from a variety of sources.
Instead of letting your home equity sit idle, or savings accounts devalue from inflation, you can put that money to work for you and participate in many profitable real estate development projects.
With the recent changes to zoning regulations, there has never been a better time to participate in lucrative real estate development. Contact us right away, even if you don't think you have enough to get started.
