EDITOR’S NOTE

IT’S ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA

TO HAVE A PLAN

MARLENE EISNER EDITOR New Home + Condo Guide EMAIL: marlene.eisner@nexthome.ca TWITTER: @MarleneEisner

Benjamin Franklin once said, “If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail,” and although he probably wasn’t referring to the home-buying process, that line of thinking can easily be applied to most of the things we aspire to in life — including purchasing a home. If buying a new home one day is part of your plan, then laying the groundwork for financing it will bring you one step closer to success. This process should start as early as possible and begins with building a good credit score. This three-digit number is integral to obtaining the financing you need from a lender when you decide that yes, a new condo or townhome is the next step in your life plan. Your credit score begins the moment you pay — or don’t pay — your first bill or credit card balance and continues throughout your life as a consumer of goods and services. To find out everything you need to know to oversee and maintain your credit score, turn to page 12 and our mortgage expert, Alisa Aragon-Lloyd’s easy-to-follow steps. Regardless of when you plan to enter the new-home market or what kind of home you are looking for, this issue is full of great advice, interesting perspectives and amazing options for your next home, including tips on how to expand your portfolio with a revenue property, and trending decor ideas to help you style your space. Thanks for letting us be part of your homebuying journey. Let us know what you think. We’d love to hear from you.

NEIGHBOURHOOD PROFILE

WHITE ROCK

POSTCARD VIEWS AND LIVING THE BEACH LIFE This seaside city near the BC/Washington border has blossomed since its early days as a weekend getaway and retirement mecca! Postcard views frame the historic pier and iconic white boulder. Surrounded by Surrey on three sides, White Rock’s boundaries are Bergstrom Rd. (136 St.) west, North Bluff Rd. (16 St.) north, Stayte Rd. (160 St.) east, and Marine Dr. south. LIFESTYLE

Sunsets and seaside views. Two scoops of gelato. Fish and chip dinners serenaded by a symphony of seagulls. Simply put, White Rock is living the beach life with a dash of prestige. Many locals grew up vacationing here, and stayed to raise their own families. A closeknit, small town 10

vibe. People shop local, stop to chat on the oceanfront promenade and love annual events like the Sea Festival. THE VIBE

Truth be told, White Rock was once nicknamed “the town of newlyweds and nearly dead.” While its mild sunny climate continues to attract active retirees, its upmarket real estate has attracted affluent young people. Seniors on scooters claim the sidewalks, while SUVs take to the roads transporting kids to their math tutors and hockey practices. DOLLARS AND SENSE

Expect to pay more for everything from coffee to dry cleaning. That said, White Rock is a treasure trove of thrift


HOT SPOTS

WHITE ROCK BEACH, PIER AND PROMENADE Fly kites, build sandcastles or wave at the passing trains. The promenade spans from the paddle board rentals at East Beach to the souvenir shops and restaurants at West Beach.

BEAN AROUND THE WORLD Enjoy the panoramic views from the corner of Johnston and Thrift. This newbie serves a yummy iced caffe Americano. Love the building architecture too — best low-rise building of 2014.

shops, including World Serve on Johnston and Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary on Prospect — often selling contents of local estates. THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE REST

“More sunshine and less rain” mean more days for kayaking, pier jumping or scaling the legendary white rock

(glacier deposit) that sits on the 5km stretch of sandy beach. Locals appreciate the small-town feel, spectacular sunsets and accessibility to neighbouring Ocean Park. What’s not to love? Beach traffic along Marine Dr. on a sunny Sunday afternoon and high property taxes.

SEMIAHMOO SHOPPING CENTRE At the hub of 152 St. and 16 Ave., this mall is technically in Surrey, but meets the residents’ essential needs — groceries, banks, restaurants, dentists and variety of shops.

ADVICE | MORTGAGE MINUTE

STEPS TO OVERSEE AND MAINTAIN YOUR

CREDIT SCORE

ALISA ARAGON-LLOYD Your credit score is a three-digit number that lenders use to predict your creditworthiness. Credit scores range from 300 to 900 points. Credit reporting agencies calculate your score based on your payment history, how much you owe, how long you 12 New Home + Condo Guide | Nov. 11–25, 2023

have had credit and how often you apply for new credit. In general, the higher your score the better, because it means a lower risk for the lender – you’re less likely to become delinquent on credit. Since your credit score and credit report are constantly changing, it’s important to review them on a regular basis, at least once a year. There are two main credit reporting agencies in Canada — Equifax and TransUnion. Check your records with

both companies. When you request your own credit report, it won’t affect your credit score. By checking it, you can identify and correct inaccurate information, detect fraudulent activity, and gauge your overall credit health. COMPONENTS OF THE CREDIT SCORE

• Payment history (35 per cent): Each month you pay your bills on time is positive to your account. You receive bonus points every year


Since your credit score and credit report are constantly changing, it’s important to review them on a regular basis, at least once a year.

you continue to pay your accounts on time. You will lose points if you have a late payment, collections, foreclosure or a judgement placed on your report. • Utilization (30 per cent): This refers to the balances you have on each credit card and is the fastest way to increase your credit score in a short period of time. You get the maximum amount of points when your balance is one to nine per cent of your available credit line. You gain points for every 10 per cent you reduce your debt, so if you go from a balance of 80 per cent to 40 per cent of your credit line, you will also gain points. It’s also important that you only have balances on about half of your credit cards. • History (15 per cent): You receive points every year that you have a positive trade line open. • Inquiries (10 per cent): If you have too many inquiries, you will lose points in your score. Inquires remain on your report for two years, however, they stop deducting points for those inquiries after one year. • Mixed credit (10 per cent): This refers to the different types of credit: Mortgages, car loans, credit cards, student loans, etc. You will gain points by diversifying your credit file and using another type of credit. TIMELINE

Credit bureaus update your scores daily based upon the information given by your creditors. Therefore, if you substantially pay down your debt, make sure you have a good mix of credit, pay on time and don’t open too many new lines of credit at once. HOW TO BUILD UP CREDIT HISTORY EASILY AND QUICKLY

• Open one or two credit cards. If you can’t get approved for a credit card,

try a secured card. This requires a small saving account, which will usually secure the entire credit line on your new card. • Use your credit card to make daily purchases instead of using cash or a debit card. Don’t use it as a form of financing, but as way of payment. Pay the total balance at the end of the month to build up your credit and avoid paying interest. • Always pay you other bills, such as hydro, rent, and your cell phone on time. Cell phone companies report your cell phone bill to the credit bureaus, so make sure you pay them on time. WAYS TO IMPROVE YOUR BEACON SCORE

• Pay off any outstanding balance immediately on loans, credit cards, and other bills. If you have a lot of debt and want to pay some of it off, you should consider debt consolidation. • Always pay your credit cards and other loans on time. A late payment on a $10 bill has the same impact on your credit as not making a $1,000 payment. Credit is based on trust, no matter what the amount is. • Never exceed your credit limit. PLANNING ON BUYING A NEW HOME OR GETTING A LOAN?

If you are planning on applying for a mortgage or a loan, it’s especially important to check your report a few months in advance. To maintain a good credit score or if your score is lower than you would like, here is how to raise it. • Pay all your bills on time. Paying late or going into collection can reduce your score. • Make sure your credit limit appears. If your credit card limits aren’t listed, your cards are assumed to

be maxed out, which damages your credit score. • Stay within your credit limit. Staying below 65 per cent of your limit will help you maintain a higher credit score. • Pay past due accounts. Delinquent accounts reduce your score more than anything else. Pay these accounts first. • Don’t close credit cards. Credit score software totals your available credit limits across all your cards. If you close an old card, suddenly you have a lower total limit, which means your credit-to-debt-ratio is higher. This drives down your score. Only close old cards if you have no self-control. • Keep old credit cards active. The longer you have had an account open, the less likely you are to default on it, and the higher your credit score. But it’s not enough to simply keep old accounts open, you must use the card, even if it’s only once every six months. • Don’t apply for credit you don’t need. Too many inquires over a short period can reduce your score. When using a mortgage expert, only one credit report will be pulled, and it can be used to go to various lenders. • Correct negative inaccuracies on your credit report. This can increase your score. Alisa Aragon-Lloyd has been a mortgage expert for more than 11 years. She has her own company, Bridgestone Financing Pros, powered by DLC Origin Mortgages and is on the board of directors for the Homebuilder Association of Vancouver (HAVAN) and an award-winning member.

ADVICE | HAVAN REPORT

GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS A HEAVY LOAD ON NEW HOMEOWNERS

RON RAPP The concept of growth pays for growth was introduced by the provincial government many years ago. Development cost charges (DCCs) were established to fund new infrastructure, including the sewers, water, drainage, parks and 20 New Home + Condo Guide | Nov. 11–25, 2023

roads required to accommodate new housing developments. The idea was straightforward: The cost of expanding or upgrading services should be shared among new developments. While the industry never objected to this concept, the introduction of DCCs and community amenity contributions (CACs), has resulted in an overwhelming burden on the production of building new homes. These charges have been

accumulating, amounting to as much as 30 per cent of the total cost of a new home, as demonstrated by recent studies. SKYROCKETING CHARGES

Despite B.C.’s guidelines calling for DCCs to be reviewed every five years, multiple municipalities have lapsed and then sought to correct their charges after 10 or more years in one fell swoop. This has seen DCC increases as high as 250 per cent in Mission, 120


per cent in Langley City, and 83 per cent in the Township of Langley. In the case of the Township of Langley, the increase as it applies to single-family homes represents more than $45,000 per door in addition to the $40,000 already being applied. When adding Metro Vancouver Regional District increases, this layers on approximately $15,000 dollars per door for a total of more than $100,000 in government-imposed taxes, with little or no protection for in-stream applications. Such unpredictable cost increases are making it impossible to plan projects and rendering many unviable. A NAIVE OUTLOOK

Some municipal politicians and staff hold a naive belief that DCCs do not affect the end price charged to consumers because developers will charge what the market will bear. The problem with this is twofold. One, DCCs are built into the cost of the new home, which inadvertently places the responsibility of infrastructure improvements onto the new homeowner versus sharing the costs with both new and existing homeowners. Two, these charges form part of the cost that must be covered by builders estimating their ‘potential revenue’ at the beginning of the planning and financing process. In a contracting market with increasing construction costs, extended approval processes and rising interest rates, the market stresses are real, and more projects will continue to be delayed or shelved due to the numbers not penciling out. The recent withdrawal of a project in Surrey City Centre is an example of how escalating costs can lead to changes in project dynamics. More than 400 below-market units were redirected as market units because the project couldn’t meet B.C. Housing financing criteria and was no longer financially viable. TIPPING POINT

While the housing market has thrived over the past decades or so, driven

by high demand and low-interest rates, the residential construction industry has willingly absorbed the increasing DCCs and other fees as the cost of doing business. However, the landscape has shifted dramatically, and these charges are now becoming cost prohibitive. They pose a grave threat to the feasibility of providing new housing precisely when increasing the housing supply has become a top governmental priority. At this critical juncture, when housing supply is paramount, uncontrolled spikes in imposed charges are terminating projects in real-time. The repercussions are far-reaching, as cities in dire need of housing supply stand to lose not only DCC revenue but also the tax income these projects could generate for decades. The solution lies in rationalizing these charges within a framework

of predictability, certainty and reasonable limits, while safeguarding on-going projects. We earnestly call upon all municipalities, including the Metro Vancouver Regional District, to halt the unbridled increases in charges and actively pursue a sustainable, affordable housing future for all.

THE FUTURE OF REAL ESTATE PRESENTATION CENTRES

TIM NG

The world of new development sales is constantly evolving, and so are the expectations of potential buyers. To stay competitive, real estate presentation centres are undergoing a significant transformation. The key to success lies in providing an immersive client experience, equipping potential buyers with essential information and leveraging technology effectively. CREATING AN IMMERSIVE CLIENT EXPERIENCE

Gone are the days when a simple brochure and a friendly salesperson were sufficient to attract buyers. Today’s clients expect more – they crave an experience that engages their senses and emotions. To meet this demand, presentation centres are increasingly focusing on creating immersive environments. Design and ambiance play a pivotal role. Presentation centres are no longer sterile and transactional spaces; instead, they are becoming showcases of creativity and innovation. Solhouse 6035 in Burnaby, BC by Bosa Properties or Park Road in Toronto by Capital Developments, are perfect examples of this. Clients step into spaces that are not just functional but also aesthetically pleasing. Lighting, furniture and sound is carefully curated to make clients feel comfortable and inspired. Large communal tables with defined workspaces create a co-working setting where realtors 26

New Home + Condo Guide | Nov. 11–25, 2023

can bring their clients and present at these presentation centres. This immersive environment can leave a lasting impression. EQUIPPING CLIENTS WITH INFORMATION

While brochures and floorplans are still essential, the emphasis is shifting towards technology-driven solutions. Animated virtual tours tap into the emotions of potential buyers, allowing them to envision their lives within the new development. Interactive touchscreens and iPad kiosks put the buyers in control where they can compare floorplans, toggle views, explore the area and really immerse themselves into the lifestyle being offered. Theatre rooms with large, window-sized screens can also create an immersive experience for potential buyers. With this detailed information, clients can ask pertinent questions, discuss their preferences with the sales team and make confident decisions. LEVERAGING TECHNOLOGY FOR SALES

The integration of technology in presentation centres is not limited to client information. It extends to a broader spectrum of activities, enhancing sales, marketing and customer service. Using the Blackline platform, with its robust reporting and data analytics, real estate professionals can anticipate client needs and tailor their marketing efforts more effectively. These technologies not only enhance efficiency but also ensure that no potential lead slips through the cracks.

Solhouse 6035 Presentation Centre, Burnaby, BC

Technology such as Blackline can also streamline the sales process itself by using digital signatures, electronic document management and automatic email follow-ups. The future of real estate presentation centres is about creating immersive experiences that resonate with clients, equipping them with the information they need, and leveraging technology to streamline the sales process. As the industry continues to evolve, those who embrace these changes and invest in technology-driven solutions are likely to stay ahead of the curve.

In this issue of New Home + Condo Guide, we speak with Rob Delves, vice-president of development at Quantum Properties, who offers some insights into the considerations new landlords need to factor into the process. New Home + Condo Guide: It’s no secret that location is king when it comes to real estate in general. But is finding the perfect location different for a revenue property than for one where you’re going to live? Rob Davies: Many of the same considerations still apply—proximity to services and amenities, easy access to transit and schools, and an attractive outlook. However, purchasing in a community 28

with strong fundamentals and development potential rather than in a major urban centre — so Coquitlam rather than downtown Vancouver, for example — has the obvious advantage of being less expensive. And since rents tend to be almost the same, your property should yield a greater rate of return on your investment dollar. NH+CG: What about floorplans and design? RD: I tend to favour smaller units, especially for condos. Rather than a two-bedroom, a one-bedroom with den offers flexibility for couples and small families at a more affordable price point, plus it’s easier to finance and in high demand across all markets. In a wood-frame building, try for the top floor. You’ll have fewer tenant complaints about noise because there’s no one upstairs. Penthouse suites are also more appealing to people who are

concerned about security. Many single women simply don’t like living on the ground floor. Right now, vacancy rates are so low, renters will take almost anything they can find. But that can change, so it’s important to pay attention to features that will make your property stand out in good times and bad. Storage is a huge issue for most people, so if the suite has a locker and a linen closet rather than just a couple of tiny bedroom closets, it will be more attractive. I believe it’s always good to get a locker, even if you have to pay extra for it. Then there’s location within the building. Is the front door opposite the elevator, meaning it could be noisy when people are coming home at 2 a.m. after a party? In an urban area where people are increasingly likely to go car-free, you could probably forego the expense of a parking stall, especially if there’s plenty of secure bicycle parking. In outlying areas such as Abbotsford or


Chilliwack, though, many people still need a vehicle, so that extra expense is worth it to keep your tenants happy. NH+CG: We’ve probably all heard stories about the “tenant from hell.” What steps should a landlord take to prevent this from happening. RD: The most important thing is to check an applicant’s references. It takes time, but our property management department often talks to as many as eight people, including employers, previous landlords and personal references. History is important, so we like to contact at least two of the most recent landlords. Take current landlord references with a grain of salt, because they may have hidden motivation to remove a bad tenant and give a false good reference in order to facilitate this. Questions to ask include whether there were complaints from neighbours or the strata, was the tenant late paying rent on more than two occasions, and are they breaking a lease early. We also ask whether the security deposit was or will be returned and if the landlord would rent to the individual again. These last two are somewhat non-intuitive but can provide some telling insights. Questions for employers are fairly straightforward: Was the person reliable, punctual, respectful. But you also want to check for discrepancies

Rob Delves

in timelines, even if you can’t ask for specifics. For example, an unexplained gap in employment could mean the person took an extended vacation or it could mean they were in rehab. When you’re calling personal references, you know the applicant won’t list people they think will provide a poor character reference, so you need to trust your instincts a bit more. Interestingly, however, parents usually make excellent contacts because they can be, and often are, brutally honest. NH+CG: Any final advice? RD: Get rental loss insurance, especially if you have a lower risk tolerance. A lot of new landlords aren’t aware this is available, but typically it’s reasonably affordable and can save a lot of potential stress, especially if you’re relying on that income as part of your retirement plan. Remember, it’s not just applicable to times when you can’t find a tenant. A number of years ago, there was an apartment near our office that burned down and took almost three years to rebuild. So, those investors had no rental income for that entire period. I’m guessing every one of them now carries rental loss insurance, but it was a hard way to learn.
