Ep 18: Unpacking Calgary's Secondary Suites Program with Joshua Howes

Amid Canada’s housing shortage, one solution is quietly reshaping neighborhoods. Pushed by municipal parties and eagerly adopted by savvy real estate investors and homeowners, the hidden gems of secondary suites not only address the housing shortages but also transform basements and garages into cash-flowing assets, making everyday real estate investors and property owners both problem-solvers and profit-makers.

Join us for a conversation with Joshua Howes, Program Manager for Secondary Suites at the City of Calgary, who brings over 13 years of experience in city planning. Joshua discusses his role and the objectives of the Secondary Suites Program, including recent suite additions. He breaks down the requirements for new versus existing suites, highlights the benefits of legalizing suites, and shares tips for a seamless inspection process. Learn about the application timelines, potential program changes, and whether multiple suites can be developed on a single property.
