When it comes to choosing a potential home, the first things that hit our minds are single-family homes or apartments, but maybe the time has come to expand our horizons? These days, developers from California to New York are cleaning the cities from commercial properties, including offices, shops, and warehouses, with the possibility of being able to turn them into living and residential spaces.

Turning a commercial building into a residential building is relatively a common thing. Transforming a commercial property into a residential building has a distinctive advantage since you’re working on an already existing building. This way, you can save money on a new building

If you also want to convert your office or commercial stores that do not have good profits, into a place to live, we are very happy to be able to help you with the design and engineering stages.
