Multi-Family Home Builder in Toronto

Toronto is facing a major housing crunch and has become unaffordable for many residents.  Available living space and high real estate costs have been an ongoing concern. In The City of Toronto, recent legislation has allowed you to convert a single family home into a duplex (two family home) without paying development charges. Not only that, but the government of Ontario has implemented a plan to allow multiplex housing where only single family homes were once allowed.  So now you will be able to build or convert an existing home into a two, three or four unit dwelling in the following areas:

Toronto –  Scarborough – The Beaches – North York – East York – Etobicoke

Novacon Construction can build a new custom multiplex home or convert your existing home into a multi-unit dwelling.  There are still rules and zoning laws that need to be followed and you will need an experienced professional to help navigate all of these changes. Contact us today and we can help  answer any questions you may have.

What is a Multi-Family Home?

Multi-family homes can range from a duplex, which has two dwellings within a single building, to larger homes or small apartment buildings with up to four individual units. They provide an extra layer of security and privacy for your family, and can be a great way to add some extra living space to your property.

These multi-unit dwellings are a great way to house multiple families on the footprint of a single family dwelling.  Multi-Family homes can be used for multi-generational families and can also be used as a great real estate investment option.

Up until July 19th, 2022, you could only add a third unit 5 years after the second unit was installed without paying development charges. With the recent vote by City Council, they have increased development charges for new home construction, BUT they are also waiving the development charges for adding second, third, and fourth units into your single property. This is the City of Toronto’s solution to increasing density, so property owners should take advantage of the waived fees.

The Government of Ontario is also proposing legislation that will allow the development of multi-family units on single family lots by overriding existing zoning laws in The Cost of Toronto.  You can read more about it here.

Benefits of Building a Multi-Family Home

While the cost of building a Duplex or other multi-family unit is more expensive than building a single family home, there are many benefits when it comes to building a multi-family home.

If you have a large family or are a multi-generational family, a multi-family home allows everyone to have separate living quarters.  You can keep your family close but also have the privacy needed to keep everyone happy.

Multi-Family homes can be amazing real estate investments.  With the ongoing housing crunch in Toronto, there is never shortage of available renters in the city that are willing to pay top dollar for a nice living space.  While the upfront costs are more, a multi-unit dwelling can create significant cash flow for the savvy real estate investor.

Multi-family dwellings also create a lot of options. You may choose to rent out multiple units but have the flexibility of making these units available to family members in the future.
