Langley suite rules

“Langley” is two municipalities with different suite rules. The City of Langley’s Bylaw No. 3300 limits a secondary suite to the lesser of 100 square metres and 40% of the building’s gross floor area, wants the owner living on the lot and one extra off-street parking space, and requires an inspection, a building permit and an entry in the City’s secondary suites registry.

The Township of Langley’s Zoning Bylaw No. 2500, section 102, caps a suite at 120 square metres of gross floor area and allows one for each principal dwelling unit, with a building permit for every suite. Willoughby listings often call a suite legal, so ask for the permit rather than relying on the word.

Zoning Bylaw 6020, adopted November 18, 2024, brought small-scale multi-unit housing to the Township, with 3 to 4 units on eligible lots and no 6-unit tier. The Township estimated about 55% of its single-family and duplex lots, roughly 15,000 properties, would qualify.

The MLS® Home Price Index benchmark for a detached house in Langley was $1,448,100 in October 2026, 6.5% down over twelve months. The benchmark is the price of a typical house, not a median of sales.

Before you offer on a Langley house with a suite

  • Ask for the Langley permit and final inspection for the suite. 139 of the 326 suite houses sold here were unauthorized, so the paperwork comes first.
  • Find out which municipality the house is in before you read the suite rules. The City of Langley keeps a registry of secondary suites, so ask whether this one is recorded in it.
  • Measure the suite against the limit of the City’s lesser of 100 square metres (1,076 square feet) and 40%, or the Township’s 120 square metres (1,292 square feet), and ask for the floor plan that was approved with the permit.
  • If a tenant lives in the suite, ask for the tenancy agreement and the rent; a tenancy usually carries on after a sale. Legal-suite houses took 29 days to sell, so there is time to ask.
  • If the listing says unauthorized, compare the price with the $1,402,500 median for unauthorized-suite houses and the $1,580,000 median for legal ones, then decide whether to legalize the suite or remove it.
