Speera Custom Homes has deep experience in Vancouver — from custom home builds in Shaughnessy and Point Grey to kitchen and bathroom renovations in Kitsilano and Mount Pleasant.

Local Knowledge

Rezoning in Vancouver: What to Know

Vancouver's R1-1 zoning allows up to 6 strata units or 8 secured rental units on most residential lots — one of BC's most permissive urban infill regimes.

Vancouver's competitive land values mean well-executed new construction and renovation projects command significant premiums at resale.

FAQ

Rezoning Services in Vancouver: Common Questions

Rezoning is needed when you want to build something not permitted under your current zoning — such as a larger multiplex, a mixed-use building, or a density increase beyond what BC's SSMUH rules allow as of right. We assess whether your project requires rezoning during a free consultation.

Rezoning timelines are set by the City of Vancouver and vary based on application complexity and current municipal workloads. We outline a realistic timeline for your specific application during our initial consultation.

Yes. BC's SSMUH legislation now allows 4+ units on most Vancouver residential lots without rezoning. This means projects that previously required rezoning may now proceed as of right. We confirm whether your project qualifies during a free consultation.

Yes — this is one of our key advantages. We guide your Vancouver property through rezoning and then transition directly into the design and construction phase, eliminating the need to coordinate between separate teams.
