Multiplex homes, built for life

Who we are

A local developer that builds what it sells

Red Cedar Properties designs and builds multiplex homes in Coquitlam, Burnaby, and Vancouver. We handle every step ourselves, from buying the land and getting permits to running the construction site and handing over the keys.

One team owns the whole process, so the people who plan your home are the same people who build it. That means fewer surprises, honest timelines and homes we are proud to put our name on.
