You mentioned having dedicated entrances to each unit removes the requirement for the 2nd exit so you didn't need a 2nd exit door in each unit. Does it also remove the requirement for one window in each unit to be an egress window? Or did you have to allow for that? Thanks.

Good project..It would be nice to know the total cost of renovation to justify the $9200 total rent. Sometime condo size units may not be that appealing to some tenants.

Great video Andy. :)

Or... instead of investing we let people start a family there?

Too many eggs in one basket. It looks like a headache to me. Cool video anyway

Hi Andy! I am impressed with your knowledge on the ADU in Ontario! I have a detached home in Courtice and am keen to explore this opportunity.. is there any way that we can connect to see if there may be an opportunity to work on this? Thank you!

Hi Andy, great video as always :) Keep it up! How do you assess city of Mississauga from ADU standpoint?

Hi Andy from Suite Additions. How do you think the 4 million plus temp workers and students Canada wide with expired visas with clear indications from the "new incoming" Canadian Gov explicitly saying they want them to leave, will impact the needs for rental units in Ontario specifically? Thank you.

I am a landlord and love more revenue as much as the next guy...but isn't $2400 for 600 sf just robbery?! Who can afford that? Don't we as landlords have a responsibility to not just take advantage of people and markets? It is these rents that get landlords in trouble when they want to sell their properties. No one can afford to move and you are forced to do cash for keys deals for big money.

Do you provide this service to help convert an existing duplex into a four plex and navigate the legalities and the permits etc?

i love your videos andy, but the rent here is outrageous. Idk what kind of research he did because a 1 bed condo in core downtown is 2k

i guess my comment with a link didn't go through. there is also a Canada Greener Homes Loan which is interest free. its up to 40K. Not sure if you know about it. and if it can be doubled up with secondary suite as well.

Good job, who was the architect you used for this project?

Are these potential rental income numbers backed up by data? It seems way off for the size of the unit. How comparable are these to condo rentals with the same size? Its def a cool idea, but I think for the 4-plex to work, you'll have to do a tear down or addition to make units that people want to actually live in. min 1200 sqft. I think a duplex would probably be the best way to convert these single family homes + garden suite. You may lose out on some rental income but shouldn't be by much?

Dont mention the cost, not sure about the purpose of this clip

No room for parking and 4x the garbage being produced from what used to be a single family home. Basically an over priced rooming house.

wtf is happening to Canada, third world shit…

I will admit the 4 units(1bedroom each) are nicely done. On the other hand why would you charge 2400/2200 month when most are suffering with $$$$ , why not charge 2000 each ,that 8000/month or even better 1800 ,thats 7200/month ,this would help the renters and also some cash flow for owner. What will it to get people stop thinking about there dam wallet and starting helping each others out .

Ruining neighbourhoods everywhere.

Hey Andy. I have a basement with it's own separate direct entrance. Do I need a second form of egress? I'm not sure where to look in the OBC. Thankls. Love your stuff.

how much it cost to make this 4 unit?

A quick question. I assumed no major structural changing on foundations, and no new roof replacement needed. Just electrical, water pipes, heat pipes, entrances doors are needed in main. Am i right? Cant wait to see the GS. And i really want yo see the cost breakdown. Thanks

ghrtto crap

somebodys stupid idea will be torn diwn soon

This should be illegal, houses are not meant to become apartment buildings. This is why we have a housing crisis

What’s the address of this property?

This does not make any sense. Who would rent this strange units if you can get the full condo for that price? Basement room for 2K? 600 Strange 1 bedroom for 2.2?? 3.5% cap rate at best? + vacancy + Hussle.... unless i do not understand something... not worth it unless you live in one unit and rent the others but the life experience will be so so...

Great vid u got new subscriber

$2400/month rent for 620 sq ft. Am I understanding this correctly?

Very interesting, looking forward to see a cost breakdown for all this and maybe even contacting you to see what's possible. In my opinion the rent numbers are very inflated even for Etobicoke. You have to consider the income, family side, parking spots for renters that choose to live in this style of property. Since this isn't even a low-rise and very cramped with no balcony and very little outdoor space.

One more question, for the washer/dryer, are those all in one units? Both drying and washing? is there a vent required?

Excellent video, very informative. Regarding the sub-meters, could you provide the link or name of the hydro and water sub-meters used? By the sounds of it, they are some kind of smart sub-meters which transmit data to an online database for the owner to use in splitting the bills. Looking at installing something similar for my project. Thank you in advance.

Great information. Who would ever thought that a one storey sf house would result in 4 620 sf units + 520 sf ADU one floor ...thanks for sharing. Happy Holidays

Do u hav the link for the 80k loans?

I have a few questions, Hello, I am planning to do something similar with a potential 2 units in my basement + GS, while living upstairs myself. Where is this property located, and how do you handle parking for so many units on a single-family home lot?

Did you find the link to apply for the 80k loan at 2% for 15yrs from the feds? Thanks Dan

Hi! Do you handle ADU construction in Winnipeg? If not, could you connect me with a contractor who does?

is it possible to sell the units separately?

Sounds legit but I recently upgraded my windows, had an energy assessment and my R2000 Home did very well. Also installed a higher efficiency furnace which helped a lot. Unless it comes out again in a few years I missed the boat.

We have 36Wx24L basement sliding window, can we just replace with tilt and turn window - same size, which makes it egress, that way we dont have to enlarge? thanks

Given min separation requirement decreased from 5m to 4m, surprised that the distance for 2 storeys (6m height) is not decreased accordingly, like 7.5m to 6m.

what about the footprint of swimming pool? will it be part of the 45% total coverage for building and structures?

Whats the best way to see if a home i potentially want to buy, will be suitable for a triplex ? Thanks

I have been fighting with my town for 6 years to put a 3rd apartment in a duplex they say the lot is too small but i own a 5 unit next door on a smaller lot 😂😂😂😂

This is a huge step forward with the province recognising that more leeway is required for property owners. The % of built ADUs vs the submitted permits remains low. This combine with lower interest rate should provide some momentum in the development of ADUs.

The building codes are still too restrictive. If I own the land I should get to decide what I do with it, no one else.

Permits should get issued faster once these rules come into place. In Toronto if you get an Engineer to take responsibility for the full code design the city won't even check for code compliance anymore and leave it all on the Engineer and issue the permit once zoning is confirmed. Not sure if you've made a video on that new policy but worth diving into!

This is indeed welcome news. It seems like many municipalities are doing what they can to limit secondary suites by creating onerous bylaws with the sole intent of making compliance next to impossible. A common hindrance being particularly rigid is parking. Good on the province!

Great

Do they have any provisions for building a tri plex on a septic system with municipal water
