In a real estate market where the listing price of a home is almost meaningless with multiple bidders pushing the offer price up, and the asking price is no longer the benchmark for how much a home is worth, what are the options between buying a resale home versus building your own infill dwelling within 4-6 months?   Hive Modular recently set up a Toronto team which will provide homeowners turn-key service from land acquisition to build to occupancy. So rather than having thehome owner find a contractor, deal with permits and coordinating delivery of the modules, you will have a team that will manage all your needs.   More about the team at www.hivemodular.com/toronto. The turn-key service includes Architectural design by Hive, project and construction management by Equinox04/09/2012
