What is a “second dwelling”?
Or have many other names:
• second unit
• suite in law
• basement apartment
• Grandma’s apartment
They go by any name, there are many and they all describe the same thing. The suite is a self-contained
private apartment with a separate access door. They are mostly built in your basement, but sometimes
they are added to the main building, or even separate within the grounds.
We choose the basement renovation option at Townhill Constructions because that just need space
from your home itself, an important factor in a city where any extra space is excellent. Your basement
also needs water, sewage, and electricity to convert it into an apartment and all of this is already in your
home. However, every member of our team at Townhill Constructions specializes in basement finishing and that’s what we do.
Why do you want a full Legal Basement Brampton?
If you intend to finish the basement for your use, this is great. But keep this in mind: it’s hard to find
rental accommodation in Brampton and beyond. Therefore, if you choose another set of Town Hill
buildings and eventually decide to rent them, they will fill a special niche in the market recognized by
the county government. If you think about it, you are not only offering an apartment to someone who
needs an affordable home, there are other advantages as well:
• The second suite is the cheapest way to provide rental properties. All utilities – water, electricity,
gas, and drainage – are already on-site in your home.
• You already have the infrastructure for a strong, weatherproof building. You have the
foundation, roof, and access. In fact, you will spend very little capital for such a high regular
income.
• You provide yourself with income so that you can spend more time enjoying life.
• Or, if you choose to do so, you can finance further renovations to your property to increase its
value.
• This is one way to pay off your mortgage earlier than you expect.
• If you decide to sell, another suite will increase the value of your property.
• If you also live there, you will receive 100% compensation for rental income from another legal
group.
However, if you are considering converting the basement for personal use, you will benefit more.
• If you are elderly and can no longer manage a large house, you can stay in another wing and
rent out the rest of your house.
• You may have kids who want a little independence. If so, they can stay downstairs and take care
of themselves and have their entrance. But they’re still under your watchful eye and they won’t
have to pay high rent for the apartment until they’re ready.
• You may have elderly parents or parents. Older people like to be as independent as possible. So
they can live in an apartment without rent and take care of themselves. At the same time, you
won’t be far away if they need help.
• After all, you and your family can always get the extra space you need without moving. Use it as
a game room, hobby room, home cinema, office, or additional bedroom.
Not only will your investment help you, but others as well. If you end up renting a suite, it could be the
start of a personal real estate portfolio. Are you indebted to your community, your family, and yourself?
If so, contact us today for an initial estimate without any liability.
