Secondary Suites | Garage or Basement Suites?

Are garden suites a good rental investment?

Affordable housing is hard to come by these days, and countless investors and developers are constantly looking for ways to maximize the housing supply and provide sustainable options at a reasonable price. 

Homes for sale in Edmonton with garage suites are becoming increasingly popular among buyers looking for a more sustainable and cost-effective option. These homes have a detached garage or carriage house that has been converted into a secondary living space, often known as a "garage suite".

These garage suites can be used as a rental unit, providing the homeowner with additional income, or as a space for a family member or guest to live in. This added living space allows for more efficient use of land and resources, while also providing an additional income stream.

In addition to being environmentally friendly, homes with garage suites also offer the opportunity for more affordable housing options. They can provide a great solution for first-time buyers looking to enter the housing market, as they can help offset the costs of owning a home. Furthermore, having a garage suite can also provide additional privacy and autonomy for aging parents or adult children living at home.

Homes For Sale with a Garage Suite

There are currently several homes for sale in Edmonton with a garage suite, with a range of prices and styles to suit different needs. Some popular neighborhoods for homes with garage suites include Old Strathcona, Garneau, and Queen Alexandra. These homes are typically listed on real estate websites such as Realtor.ca or Zillow, and can also be found through local real estate agents.

Garage & garden suite listings will be coming soon! The MLS® has not updated the garden & garage suites criteria yet. As soon as this is available we will have this page updated!
