North-east of Mundy Park

Ranch Park houses, and the question of the suite

Ranch Park is a small neighbourhood of family houses north-east of Mundy Park. Its streets have two naming themes. Some come from sailing: Mariner Way, Spar Drive, Bosun Place, Windward Drive, Signal Court. Others come from ranching: Ranch Park Way and Lazy A Street.

Most of the houses for sale here were built before 1980, and many of them have a basement suite. A suite can be part of how a buyer plans to pay for the house, so this page spends most of its time on it.

Cityecho pulled these figures from the MLS® feed on October 9, 2026 at 9:26 a.m. PT: every active listing for houses in the Ranch Park board area of Coquitlam. Prices are asking prices, and sale prices can differ. Days listed count from the listing contract date. The listings further down this page load live, so their count can differ from these figures.

Checking a suite before you count its rent

  1. 1

    Ask the seller in writing whether the suite has a City building permit, and ask for the permit number.

  2. 2

    Ask the City's building permit department to confirm the permit for the address.

  3. 3

    Walk the suite with your inspector. Look at the ceiling height, the windows in the bedrooms, a separate entrance, and smoke alarms.

  4. 4

    If there is no permit, get a contractor's estimate for bringing the suite to the permit standard before you remove subjects.

  5. 5

    Tell your lender and your insurer exactly what the suite is. Their answers can change what you can borrow and what your policy costs.

  6. 6

    Check the tenancy. If someone lives in the suite, ask for the tenancy agreement and whether the tenant will stay.

The rest of the house

A house from the 1970s has usually had some updates. Ask what has been replaced and when: the roof, the windows, the furnace and the hot water tank. Ask the inspector to look at the electrical panel and the water pipes.

Since June 2025 most single-family lots in Coquitlam are in small-scale zones that can allow more than one home. If you are thinking about a garden cottage or carriage house instead of, or as well as, a basement suite, look up the zone for the lot first.
