Some older properties have good bones to renovate and others are ready to be torn down for new builds. Many homeowners wonder which option is best for them when planning their dream space.

James and Raj Gill from Versa Developments continue discussing custom home builds and provide an in-depth comparison between a new house and a significant renovation project in part 2 of this two-part series.

This episode will cover heritage revitalization agreements, the rezoning process, the increase of material costs influencing the final budget, in-fill housing (also known as coach, carriage, and laneway homes), the steps needed to improve the energy efficiency of an older house, and the pros and cons of renovations compared to a new build.
