Build X Design Skillsets
What We Do
Everything a Toronto multiplex, garden suite, or laneway project needs, under one roof. Hire us for a single piece or for the whole path from feasibility to finished build.
PRE-DESIGN
Feasibility Study
Before you design anything, we check whether the lot can actually carry a fourplex, sixplex, garden suite, or laneway house. Zoning, site constraints, how many units realistically fit, and rough numbers, so you buy or commit with your eyes open.
APPROVALS
Zoning & Minor Variances
When the project needs a bit of relief from the zoning bylaw (a setback, a height, some coverage), we prepare the minor variance application and take it to the Committee of Adjustment for you.
Acquisition
Assess Before You Buy
Looking to purchase a property to convert into a multi-unit rental? Have Build X Design analyze the property you have in mind so you can make the most calculated investment and know a project is possible before you acquire the lot.
Perfect for investors who need help figuring out which property is the best fit for their multiplex strategy, before you buy. This is what used to be the Acquisition package, now folded into Feasibility Study as the entry point. We meet you on-site, walk the property, and give you a straight read on whether your plan makes sense and where the risks sit. It’s a set fee, credited toward your architectural services if you build with us.
