Legal Basement Apartments — Earn Rental Income from Your Home

Turn Your Basement Into Monthly Income

A legal basement apartment is one of the smartest investments a GTA homeowner can make. With rents climbing across Mississauga and the surrounding area, a well-built legal suite can generate $1,500–$2,500+ in monthly income — often enough to cover a significant portion of your mortgage. RenoBuzz designs and builds code-compliant legal basement apartments from start to finish.

The Return on Investment

$1,500–$2,500+/mo Rental income potential

Legal basement suites offer exceptional ROI. Beyond the monthly rental income, a legal suite can significantly increase your property value. Many of our clients see their renovation pay for itself within 2–4 years through rental income alone. With financing, your tenant's rent can often cover your renovation payments from day one.
