Vancouver’s newest strategy to address the housing crisis allows homeowners in select neighborhoods to convert single-family homes into multi-unit, multi-family properties, all while preserving the heritage appearance of the homes. These conversions are officially known as Multiple Conversion Dwellings (MCDs).
Multiple conversion dwelling construction
The units in these developments can be converted into individual condos, commonly referred to as strata in BC. According to the BC government, “Strata housing is often called condos or condominiums, but it encompasses more than just apartment-style units. It can include duplexes, townhouses, fractional vacation properties, and even single-family homes within bare land strata corporations (‘strata subdivisions’). In strata housing, owners hold individual ownership of their strata lots while jointly owning the common property and assets as part of a strata corporation.”
We specialize in both designing and building Multiple Conversion Dwellings (MCDs), with several successful projects to our credit.
Constructing an MCD is a complex and technical process. Our approach prioritizes precision, quality, and meticulous attention to detail, ensuring each MCD is not only functional but also sustainable.
Preserving the Exterior Charm:
In every MCD project, we prioritize preserving and enhancing the home’s exterior facade.
Recognizing the importance of maintaining the character and uniqueness of Vancouver’s neighborhoods, we take great care to ensure the exterior reflects the property’s original charm and integrates seamlessly with its surroundings.
While the interiors are modernized to meet contemporary living standards, the exterior is thoughtfully upgraded. This includes restoring original architectural features and using materials that align with the neighborhood’s aesthetic. Our approach honors the community’s heritage and charm, ensuring that the MCDs contribute to the streetscape, adding both cultural and visual value.
