Granny Flats
If You Own a Home on a 450m2 land …
You’re likely facing an interesting set of very real opportunities – opportunities not only to
substantially increase the value of your property, but also the opportunity to enjoy a healthy
stream of rental income for many years to come.
But unfortunately, it can often be a difficult challenge for homeowners to gather all the information
they need to fully appreciate the opportunities before them.
How To Assess Your Options and Analyse Your
Opportunities.
Perhaps you’ve been thinking about this for a long time now – or not. But, you’ve got questions. Lots
and lots of questions.
• What are the restrictions under my zoning?
• How much does it cost to build a Granny Flat?• What are other associated costs?
• What about financing? How much would my payments be?
• How’s the rental market these days? How much could I reasonably expect to get rent?
• How much income could I realistically generate? (rent less all costs)
o Per month?
o Per year?
• If I add a Granny Flat to my property, would the overall property value increase
by MORE than the cost of the Granny Flat?
Given how often homeowners ask us these important questions and request our help and
advice, we decided to create the…
Granny Flat Feasibility Study (GFFS)
It’s a no-cost, no-obligation Granny Flat Feasibility Study that includes:
1. A Site Visit – We measure your lot and existing buildings, analyse access, set-backs,
and review the architectural style and overall curb appeal of your home.
2. Review Zoning – We research your existing zoning, building setbacks, easements,
and covenants to determine exactly what is allowed on your property and to determine
the maximum building size for a potential Granny Flat.3. 4. Provide Attractive, compliant Granny Flat Design Samples – We have several
pre-designed Granny Flat Designs that will fit on most existing lots. We also offer our
in-house design service to custom design a Granny Flat to your wishes and match
your existing home design.

5. configuration. Our documentation system including tender forms and detailed general

Designing and Building your Home
The Process Makes All the Difference
YKB Homes is a “Design/Build” custom home builder, meaning we offer both design and
construction services in-house, instead of having to deal with different providers.
How do we know this makes a difference? Our clients tell us…
• “Always well managed projects and a company that cares about its customers first.”
• “Their high standards and qualified staff ensure they deliver the very best for their
clients.”
• “Always following up on the little details”
• “A company that cares about its customers first.”Designing… Your Custom Home
In the design phase, we provide you with all the necessary planning and design drawings to help you
visualize your new home. These may include:
• Concept Design Drawings
• Perspectives, 3Ds, Renderings
• Preliminary Plans
• Site Section Profiles
• Construction Drawings & Site Plans
• Landscape Design
Throughout the designing process, we consider all factors involved in both the planning and
construction of your new custom home — painting the “big picture” of essentials needed to put your
dream home together. Some of these factors include:
• Budgets and options
• Your specific building site conditions
• Individual preferences and unique requirements
• Product selections
• Technological and sustainability integrationsBuilding… Your Custom Home
Our ability to compare your new home ideas to similar past projects that we have designed and built,
allow us to properly guide you through the planning process; effectively and efficiently. Knowledge
of costs and budgets early on help us stay on target with designing.
Outsourcing home plans often results in designs that don’t accurately reflect your building site
characteristics, engineering requirements, desired product integrations and budgets; which
translates into significant cost overruns that can easily exceed 50% of the overall budget.
With Harmony’s Design/Build model; the design, planning and construction all come together under
one contract. We assume responsibility for all work on the project – from beginning to end, so the
entire process is smooth and seamless.
