How to Buy a Maple Ridge House with a Suite for Under $1.3M in 2026

By Olson Team | December 22, 2025

Yes, it’s still possible — but you have to move fast and know where to look. Current sweet spot:

30–50-year-old split-entry or basement-entry homes in Albion, West Central, or East Central
2- or 3-bedroom suite downstairs bringing in $2,400–$3,200/month
Total price $1.35M–$1.49M

With a good suite covering 70–90 % of your mortgage, your actual payment can be less than renting a 2-bedroom apartment in Vancouver. We have 3 coming up in the next 10 days that aren’t on MLS® yet. Want to see them before the weekend rush? Text “SUITE” to 604-466-7000 and we’ll send you the off-market list.
