Our story

Built on close attention.

Markana is a small, principal-led development company — every project is managed directly by the people who understand both the site and the numbers behind it.

Who we are

A builder's eye, run with a controller's discipline.

Markana Developments Corp takes on custom single-family homes, laneway houses, and small multifamily projects across Vancouver and the Lower Mainland — as both a spec builder and a construction manager for private owners.

Every project stays close: direct oversight on site, and equally close attention to budgets, schedules, and the financial side of a build — brought from a background in financial and tax accounting long before Markana existed.

Approach

How we work

Site & design

Designed for the site

Every project begins with the lot itself — orientation, light, and neighbourhood context shape the design from the first sketch.

Construction

Built to last

Trusted trades and careful sequencing, with materials and methods chosen for durability over decades, not just years.

Oversight

Budgets held tight

Clear milestones and honest reporting — owners always know where a project stands, financially and on site.

Partnership

Close, direct involvement

From custom homes to multi-unit developments, you work directly with the principals — not a layer of account managers.

How a project unfolds

From foundation to finish.

1

Design

Site analysis, concept, and drawings shaped around the lot, the light, and how you plan to live.

2

Permits

Municipal approvals and engineering coordinated directly, with realistic timelines set up front.

3

Framing

The building takes shape — structure, envelope, and systems roughed in under close daily supervision.

4

Finishing

Millwork, tile, and fixtures installed with the same attention the drawings were given.

5

Move-in

Final walkthrough, deficiencies closed out, and keys handed over — ready to live in.
