Boris MannOwnership structures and finance are other opportunities for templates. Legal & accounting, construction & mortgage financing.VanCity produced a TikTok about a new product they have for groups buying & building together. A good start!Can we support co-ops and co-housing as well as strata?

Boris MannWhat do I mean when I say templates?The “Vancouver Special” was a SFH design you could buy / build that is found all over the city. What are some 3/4/6 unit designs we can work with architects & engineers to have designed as customizable starting points?How can Canadian companies work together to provide materials and components that fit into these designs?We have an opportunity for local supply chains.<a href="https://cosocial.ca/tags/bcpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bcpoli</a> <a href="https://cosocial.ca/tags/housing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#housing</a>

Boris MannI don’t think it’s time for half measures. Zoning is just one part.You need financing, you need architecture / engineering / construction, you need materials. I am actually worried that we don’t have enough systems or templates in place for this to make an impact.Most people don’t know this, but rentals are a BIGGER issue outside of urban areas in the province of BC: only SFH, and not affordable to rent an entire house!<a href="https://cosocial.ca/tags/bcpoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#bcpoli</a> <a href="https://cosocial.ca/tags/housing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#housing</a>
