Building a custom home in Richmond is one of the most significant investments you'll make — and the most personal. Speera Custom Homes brings the local expertise, experienced trades, and turnkey project management to deliver your Richmond custom home from initial design through final walkthrough.

Speera Custom Homes is a Richmond-based custom home builder with completed projects across the city — including the Aragon half-duplex in Broadmoor and homes built on Herbert Road. We've submitted permits to the City of Richmond's Building Approvals department, worked directly with Richmond plan checkers, and managed construction across multiple Richmond neighbourhoods. That direct local experience means your Richmond custom home build benefits from a team that knows the process — not one learning it on your project.

Featured Project

Aragon Half-Duplex — Broadmoor, Richmond

Our completed Aragon project is a custom half-duplex in Richmond's Broadmoor neighbourhood — strata-titled, fully custom, and finished to a high standard throughout. The project navigated Richmond's duplex permit requirements, lot coverage bylaws, and the City's construction inspection process from design through final occupancy. It reflects the quality and attention to detail we bring to every Richmond custom home build.

Local Knowledge

Custom Home Building in Richmond: What to Know

Richmond's RSM (Residential Small-Scale Multi-Unit) zone, introduced in June 2024, permits 4–6 units on most single-family and duplex lots — without rezoning. The City of Richmond raised the maximum building height under RSM to 10m in March 2025. Speera has direct, active experience navigating Richmond's RSM and RAD zoning, with completed projects in Broadmoor, Brighouse, and Terra Nova.

Richmond is Speera's home base. Our completed Aragon half-duplex in Broadmoor, and homes built along Herbert Road, are finished projects — not renderings. When you hire Speera as your Richmond custom home builder, you're working with a team that has already navigated the City of Richmond's permit process, worked through the same construction environment your project will face, and delivered finished homes across this city.

We work throughout Richmond, including: Steveston, Terra Nova, Broadmoor, Brighouse, Garden City, Hamilton, Seafair, Quilchena. View all Richmond services →

FAQ

Custom Home Builder in Richmond: Common Questions

Richmond's RSM (Residential Small-Scale Multi-Unit) zone, introduced in June 2024, permits 4–6 units on most single-family and duplex lots without rezoning. The City also raised the maximum building height to 10m in March 2025. What's achievable on your specific Richmond lot depends on its dimensions, FSR limits, setbacks, and frontage — we assess this in detail during your free consultation and give you an honest picture of your options.

The process starts with a free consultation where we review your Richmond lot, discuss your goals and vision, and confirm what's permitted under current zoning. We then coordinate design, prepare and submit permit applications to the City of Richmond, and manage construction from groundbreak to occupancy. We've completed this process multiple times in Richmond — we know the City's requirements, review timelines, and Building Approvals process directly.

Building permit timelines in Richmond are managed by the City of Richmond's Building Approvals department and vary based on project type, application completeness, and current volumes. We submit complete, compliant applications to minimize review rounds and communicate proactively with City staff throughout the process. We provide a realistic permit timeline specific to your Richmond project during our free consultation.

Yes. Richmond is Speera's home territory. Completed Richmond projects include the Aragon half-duplex in Broadmoor and homes built along Herbert Road. These are finished, occupied homes — not conceptual renders. When you hire Speera as your Richmond custom home builder, you're working with a team that has already navigated the same permit process, inspection regime, and construction environment your project will go through.
