Local builders say tiny homes are an excellent way to improve the value of a homeowner’s property and increase the housing supply

With the cost of living steadily climbing, a new home is out of reach for many potential home buyers.

“We are working on our fifth project this spring. I can't think of a more affordable and sustainable way of creating more housing in the city than with something like this, converting garages into tiny homes.” “A lot of neighbours were initially against tiny homes, but when they came and saw, they were happy and are now thinking about having one themselves,” he said.

“We are currently working on our fifth project, on Morris Street for my neighbour. We are building a tiny home in the back. My wife and I did the same with our house. We built one out back as well,” Randhawa said. “We got a shop, started prefabbing the builds in it, and we use a crane to lift them into our customer’s yard. The farthest we have sent one so far is in Newmarket,” Reid said.
