Why Choose Us

Why Investors Choose Jenga Built

Zoning Expertise

We know R-CG, R-G, and H-GO inside out. No surprises at the permit stage. We design to what's approved, not what we hope gets approved.

Turnkey Service

One team. One contract. Design through handover. You're not coordinating architects, engineers, and contractors — we are.

Numbers First

We run the pro forma before we break ground. Every project starts with real financial projections so you invest with confidence.

CMHC MLI Select

We design to align with CMHC's MLI Select program for favourable financing terms — lower rates, longer amortization, higher leverage.

Common Questions

Investor FAQ

Returns vary by neighbourhood, unit count, and market conditions. Cap rates typically range from 4.5% to 6.5% on well-located inner-city projects. We run specific projections for each property at the assessment stage so you have real numbers before committing.
Typically 15–22 months total: 1 month for design & feasibility, 3–6 months for permitting, and 10–14 months for construction. We'll give you a project-specific timeline estimate at the feasibility stage.
No. Our turnkey process handles everything from design to handover. You'll receive regular updates and will be consulted on material selections, but the day-to-day project management is entirely ours.
Yes — we design our projects to qualify for MLI Select wherever possible, giving you access to lower interest rates, higher loan-to-value ratios, and longer amortization periods. We'll walk you through the eligibility criteria at the feasibility stage.
Both options work. If you have a lot in mind, we'll assess it. If you're looking for the right opportunity, we maintain relationships with realtors and landowners and can help identify qualified properties.
We build detailed cost estimates before breaking ground and track against them throughout construction. Overruns can occur due to unforeseen site conditions or owner-requested changes — we communicate these transparently as soon as they arise and never surprise you with invoices at the end.
We focus on inner-city Calgary neighbourhoods with strong R-CG, R-G, or H-GO zoning — including Killarney, Altadore, Mount Pleasant, Hillhurst, Bowness, Bridgeland, Inglewood, and surrounding areas. Book a lot assessment and we'll confirm eligibility for your specific address.
A typical 4-unit inner-city infill project requires $1.2M–$1.5M total, including land. Smaller projects (duplexes) can start lower. CMHC MLI Select financing can reduce the equity requirement significantly. We'll walk through financing options at the feasibility stage.
