In Ontario — The missing middle
Small-scale multi-unit,
underwrittenengineeredfinancedbuiltunderwritten to last.
We build small multi-unit homes duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes and townhomes, on ordinary lots in neighbourhoods that already exist. We find the site, prove the numbers, carry the approvals, and run the build through to completion.

What we do
Four disciplines, one mandate · scroll sideways
01
Site Evaluation & Development Feasibility
We work out whether a lot can hold more homes, zoning, buildable area, servicing, site conditions, and the numbers, and tell you plainly what it can carry.
02
Infill & Small-Scale Multi-Unit Housing
New homes inside neighbourhoods that already exist, by making better use of land that is already there. We handle planning, design and approvals, and we build to fit the street.
03
Project Management & Construction Oversight
We run the build: budget, schedule, consultants, trades and quality, from first day on site to final sign-off. One point of accountability the whole way.
04
Development Partnerships & Investment
We partner selectively with private capital and strategic partners: plain communication, careful handling of money, and interests that stay aligned to the end.
How we work, in detail.
The thesis
Policy opened the lots. Execution decides the returns.
In Ontario, as in other provinces, the rules have loosened. More lots can legally hold more homes than they did five years ago, and more councils now allow small multi-unit buildings on ordinary residential streets.
The hard part is no longer permission. It is delivery — small sites, tight budgets, and construction that has to be right the first time. We built APP for exactly that: small enough to judge each site on its own merits, disciplined enough to hold a budget and a schedule to the end.
Entitlement clarity
We confirm what a lot can actually carry before any money is committed.
Cost realism
Budgets built from real trade pricing, not per-square-foot averages.
Neighbourhood fit
Homes that read as part of the street, not an imposition on it.
Selected work
Built, occupied, accounted for.

Do I have to sell my property to work with you?
No. Some owners sell. Others put the land into a joint venture and keep a share of the finished project. We model both so you can see the difference before anything is signed.
How long does a small multi-unit project take?
It depends on the approval path. A project that already fits the rules moves fastest; anything needing a variance or site plan approval takes longer. We give you a realistic schedule at feasibility, not a best case.
What makes a site worth developing?
Lot width and depth, servicing, parking and access, trees and setbacks, and what the finished homes will actually rent or sell for on that street. Any one of them can end an otherwise attractive deal.
Do you take on custom or single-family work?
Occasionally, by referral, where it fits our standards and schedule. Small multi-unit infill remains the focus.
Have a site, or capital looking for one?
Send us the address or the mandate. We will tell you plainly whether it works.
