TINY HOMES

Tiny homes, additional residential dwelling units, small homes, laneway houses, backyard homes, garden suites, carriage houses - you name it, we’ve built it. These buildings are an excellent way to improve the value of your property. They can be used for rental income, a home office, multi-family living or in-law suite.

Accessory homes are a sustainable and affordable solution to increasing the housing supply and an unmatchable dollar for dollar investment in your property. We have the ability to design, render, manage and build your project from start to finish. Our Tiny Homes are built with our real estate partner Ranardo Real Estate.
