We build three kinds of multi-unit home in Metro Vancouver, and the right one depends on your lot more than your preference. Here is what each involves and where to read more.
Three to six units on a single lot, now permitted across much of Vancouver and Burnaby. Best when the lot can carry the density and you want the most from the land. Read more about multiplex construction in Vancouver or multiplex and duplex projects in Burnaby.
Two homes, side by side or front and back. The simplest route to a second home on the property, and usually the fastest through approvals. Read more about duplex construction in Vancouver.
A separate small home at the rear of the lot, off the lane. It keeps the existing house in place, which is why owners who are not ready to rebuild start here. Read more about laneway house builders in Vancouver.
All three forms are designed and built by one team here, from the feasibility study through city approvals to handover. VictorEric has been building in Vancouver since 1997 and multi-award-winning since 2007. Recent multi-unit work includes a six-unit SSMUH in Burnaby, a four-unit multiplex on a standard Vancouver lot and a garage converted to a laneway home.
Vancouver has been leading the way with new zoning policies that make it easier for homeowners to create more livable, flexible housing options. If you’re considering a multiplex, duplex, or multi unit development in Vancouver, our team at VictorEric can guide you through the city’s regulations, design process, and construction from start to finish.
