Secondary Suites

Eric Jenkins says “My basement suite is my best retirement investment. It guarantees me a place to live and pays me a dividend that increases with the Cost of Living? I get to stay in my own home and be money ahead!” Safety, security, and comfort.

Now, BC Housing is offering a Secondary Suite Incentive Program with up to $40,000 toward building a new affordable rental suite. Interested? Secondary Suites covered under the program can be a typical basement secondary suite, or accessory dwelling unit (ADU), in-law apartments, cottages, or small redidential unit. They can be attached to the principal dwelling or an entirely separate unit, located above a garage or in the backyard on the same property. You may want to add a secondary suite to your property to receive additional income, provide socia and personal support to a family member, or obtain greater security.

If you are considering a secondary suite, call, email or fill in our contact form, and we will provide you an initial assessment for just $300 plus GST. Which, if you proceed to build with us, will be credited to your first invoice.

 In Victoria, many basement suites are readily made to be level entry, allowing wheelchair access. Adding a level-entry accessible shower provides barrier free accessibility to achieve Universal Design . This ensures the autonomy of ‘aging in place’. It also takes caring to its best level by providing accessible accommodation throughout our community - for everyone.

Level Entry Suite - Guaranteed Independence
