Planning Your Income Suite Renovation

By Amanda Bouck

When it comes to renovating a property into a multi-unit with one or more income suites, there are a lot of things to consider.

Some of these will be cosmetic, like a neutral shade of paint or modern fixtures, but there are a few essentials that no responsible, legally-compliant landlord should skip out on.

These include:
  • Separate entrance for the income suite
  • Parking
  • Water-proof bathrooms, kitchen, laundry
  • ​Ceiling height
  • ​Fire separation
  • ​Egress window for each unit
  • ​Sound proofing between units
  • ​Don’t forget to get permits before you start renovating
In the video below my husband Marty and I take you through a property we purchased and go over the renovations we intend to do and why they are important.
