Basement Apartment Renovation & Design

A basement apartment is an investment that will pay for itself!  Whether you are looking to build a basement apartment to generate rental income or as an in-law or parental unit creating an apartment out of your basement space is a wise decision.

The income generated from rentals can be a great “mortgage-helper” to any household and down-the line when you are ready to sell, it can add resale value and assist new homebuyers by making the purchase more affordable with the income offsetting their mortgage payments.

An article published by The Star in September 2019 outlines the rental crisis situation in the GTA.  The report by RBC Economics entitled “A Look at Canada’s Rental Housing Deficit” cites that the GTA is currently not equipped to handle an expected explosion in demand for rental units over the next 3-4 years.  It urges that the pace of creating new rental housing supply must double if the city is to meet future demand…so be part of the solution and turn your renovated basement into an income generator!

Alternately, if you have older parents, parents-in-law or grown children you’d like to keep close by, we have the solution!  Seniors are the fastest growing age group in Ontario and finding safe suitable retirement facilities for your beloved parents is costly and difficult.  Having them near in a basement apartment gives your peace of mind and is more affordable.

Completing your basement and building an apartment is a WIN-WIN anyway you look at it!
