What leaders are saying
“
Laidler Academy’s Multiplex Training ensured our clients had the right information to make decisions. The training was so beneficial that I purchased a second course for my team leader Farris.

I highly, highly recommend Bill Laidler's Multiplex Course. It's amazing. I mean, just from a pure knowledge base, amazing speakers, high value, high commitment... I just can't say enough good things about it.

If you're considering this, jump in. This is absolutely something that I highly recommend. Of all the coaching I've ever gone through, this is far and away the best and the most relevant for our Province.

The level of knowledge that Laidler has far exceeded anything that I’ve done. So this is definitely helping me move forward — to take my knowledge and my career to the next level.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions? [email protected]
Is my property worth more because it is pre-zoned?
In many cases, yes. If your lot can support multiple homes, its value may be driven by development potential — not comparable single-family sales. This workshop shows you how to determine whether that potential materially increases your land value.
Why isn’t a traditional Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) enough?
A CMA values your home as a house.
Real Estate Investors value it as land — using a financial model that calculates what they can build, what it will cost, and what profit they require. These approaches often produce very different numbers.
If you don’t understand the developer’s math, you’re negotiating at a disadvantage.
How do I know if my property qualifies for 3–6 units?
Qualification depends on each Metro Vancouver Municipality's unique zoning requirements for lot size, frontage, proximity to transit, and site-specific constraints.
In Module 1, you’ll learn how to evaluate your property’s development rights and identify red flags before a home buyer does.
What is Residual Land Value — and why does it matter?
Residual Land Value is the formula Real Estate Investors and Home Buyers use to determine how much the potential profit for your property. .
It works backward from projected resale values, subtracting construction costs, fees, financing, and profit to reveal the maximum supportable land price.
Understanding this framework allows you to confirm whether the Seller is selling at a fair price.
How much difference can proper pricing really make?
Every property is unique. However, when land is correctly positioned and marketed as a development opportunity, it can attract competitive builder interest and materially higher pricing.
The difference often comes down to whether the homeowner understands the development math before going to market.
What is a Homeowner Joint Venture — and is it realistic?
Instead of selling outright, some homeowners choose to contribute land equity into a project and participate in development profits alongside a builder.
This strategy can increase total returns but involves time and risk. We explain how these structures work — and when they may or may not make sense for your situation.
How is the workshop delivered?
The course is delivered live online over four sessions. Each session includes instruction and live Q&A, allowing you to engage directly and ask questions in real time.
What if I can’t attend one of the sessions live?
All sessions are recorded and made available to registered participants, so you can review the material at your convenience.
