features and benefits
The Westcor Advantage
Our Strength
Westcor’s strength is its people. We have a large group of consultants and we have key team members with extensive experience from entitling projects through to completing the buildout. Westcor is a registered Residential Builder in the Province of British Columbia. This is an earned and grandfathered title we are licensed to use.
Packages
Westcor provides full packages for all its rezoning, development permit and building permits required on all its developments. Projects are built electronically before construction starts which reduces change orders.
Development Opportunity
Westcor is always looking for more development opportunities and Westcor shares opportunities with other qualified investors by way of Limited Partnership or direct joint venture investment. Limited Partners are not required to sign for development financing and Westcor does not need help with development financing. Westcor shares profits with others when the opportunity arises which allows us to take on additional projects.
capacity
Working through the municipal process has become a very difficult process in some jurisdictions. Westcor is careful to count the known risks of municipal decision making and with the experience in the Team, sort through ways to get what appears impossible on the surface completed. We are not afraid to take on geotechnically challenging hillside developments because we have extensive experience on difficult sites. Our knowledge of materials and how to use them optimally has allowed us to have no failures in any of our construction ground works in over 40 years. Our financial backing means we do not need property owners to share in the extensive costs of getting sites entitled, Westcor bank rolls the development process
