Episode description
To solve the housing issues faced in Canada will require innovation. Our guest this week, Ben Julius, approaches the challenges of land use and best building use with a creativity that sees a 91 lot land development turn into 132 lots and unit space for 1200 square foot apartments turn into two apartments leveraging technology.
As an active real estate developer and founder of Lionheart Development, a thriving land development company based in Southern Ontario, Ben is the go-to guy for liaising between planners, construction companies, and municipalities looking for more affordable housing options.
