How to Build Multifamily and Laneway Suites in Toronto!! (feat. Expert Architect - Adam D. Brander)
Date: April 23, 2024
For the first time ever, Volition Properties is hosting an event that will focus on the architectural design, development, and approvals process of transforming single-family homes into lucrative Multifamily Investment properties. The “4+1” business model (i.e. 4plex + Laneway Suite) is quickly becoming one of the most popular development opportunities in Toronto. That said, if your aspirations are even larger, we will also be touching on development opportunities up to 10 units, and also up to 30 units as well!!
We’re thrilled to introduce Adam Brander, a pioneer among development-focused architects in Toronto, specializing in multifamily conversions. Adam’s expertise lies in navigating the complexities of building design, approval processes, and permit acquisition. Adam has helped many Volition investors design and get approvals for Legal Luxury Triplexes and Fourplexes in Toronto.
While the City of Toronto has made recent legislative changes which make multifamily conversions more accessible and cost-effective, the process still remains intricate and fraught with pitfalls. Adam will be covering a range of important topics, including:
- What to look for in a development site and in an existing building
- How big are you allowed to build?
- The impact of recent changes brought by Bill 23
- How to save hundreds of thousands of dollars in development charges
- Navigating the Committee of Adjustment (COA) approval process, and the new rules that limit appeals by NIMBY neighbors
- Understanding the HST exemptions applicable to multifamily building projects
- Designing for energy efficiency to qualify for CMHC MLI Select, securing significantly more favorable financing terms
And that’s just the beginning. Whether you’re curious about the potential of laneway suites or the intricacies of building 4+1 structures, this event is your gateway to informed investment and architectural design.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from the best & network with like-minded investors who are already doing these types of development projects. Reserve your spot today and transform your vision into reality by taking your first step toward multifamily real estate development success!
