Dreams in Tight Spaces: The Laneway House Blueprint
Manage episode 401777906 series 2820985
In this episode Des interviews Ashley McInnis, a real estate agent who built a laneway house in Toronto.
McInnis shares his experience with the process, from obtaining permits to dealing with construction and financing. He explains the project cost around $350,000 for the laneway house itself, plus additional expenses for renovations to the main house and landscaping, totaling around $500,000.
Despite the high cost, McInnis believes it's a good investment, offering a flexible space that can be used for family, work, or rental income. He also discusses the challenges of navigating city regulations and the importance of considering design and functionality.
