What is SSMUH?
 

Small-Scale Multi-Unit Housing (SSMUH) allows homeowners to add 1–4 new, fully independent homes on their existing property—supported by new provincial policies designed to create more modern, flexible, and community-friendly housing.
 

It offers a practical path to:

  • Expand living options for family
    (e.g., a suite for aging parents/adult children starting out, extra office spaces, art studio, or a guest unit)

  • Build long-term equity

  • Generate rental income
    (e.g., long-term tenants, furnished mid-term rentals, seasonal rentals like Airbnb)

  • Support sustainable urban growth

SSMUH is not just a construction model—it’s a smarter way to plan for the future of your home and your family.​​​
