There’s No Place Like Trico.

We know Calgarians have choices when buying a home. That’s why we’ve built a company that builds so much more than quality houses.

We’ve built culture. A shared pride, passion and commitment to continually improve and deliver on our promises to not only our homeowners, but to each other. And we’ve built a reputation of trust and integrity by treating every client and employee like family and giving back to our communities.

Because we know to you, it’s about more than just buying a house.

We do more than build quality homes. We help create the place we call home.

EDITOR’S NOTE

MORE EVIDENCE CALGARY IS ON THE RISE

WAYNE KARL MANAGING EDITOR NextHome

Good news, Calgary. We’ve written recently about the continuing recovery from the economic slump over the last few years, and how housing is responding in kind, initially in resale.

Now, we’re happy to report, the new home market is also improving. Real estate analytics firm Altus Group confirms in its Calgary Flash Report that new home sales are trending up, particularly in multi-family units.

Indeed, for the first quarter of this year, new multi-family home sales were up 19 per cent from a year earlier. And, it shouldn’t surprise, much of the growth is in new condo sales.

Prospective buyers also have more choice.

There were 23 condo projects launched in 2017, with a total of slightly more than 1,600 units.

The majority of the new supply is in suburban locations, and has seen strong demand from consumers, Altus says.

Throughout this issue of NextHome, you will see numerous new home communities to consider – from condos to townhomes to singlefamily homes.

All things considered, there is plenty to be positive about in Calgary!

COVER STORY MIDTOWN IN AIRDRIE

Six new showhomes entice buyers to

MIDTOWN in AIRDRIE With a terrific selection of new lots, three builders and six incredible new showhomes, there is plenty to capture the imagination of homebuyers at Midtown in Airdrie.

Crafted by Shane Communities in partnership with APEX Developments, Midtown, is artfully designed on more than 90 acres, providing a rare sense of openness in the heart of Airdrie. After experiencing great success in Phases 1 and 2, Midtown is moving into a new phase of development.

“We’re excited to release our Phase 4, comprised of 75 single-family lots including the first lots backing onto the central pond as well as those backing onto the creek on the south end of the community,” says Brenden Montgomery, general manager of Shane Communities.

“We’re also pleased to see that Excel Homes and Trico Homes have joined Shane Homes in offering

single-family front-attached garage homes providing customers with more choice in Midtown,” he says.

All three builders have two showhomes on parade in Phase 4, which opened in May with a grand opening event, which brought 500 visitors to the community.

“We had a phenomenal response to the Phase 4 showhome grand opening event,” Montgomery says.

“It was great day and the response from people was very positive. The interior designers did an amazing job showcasing these homes and people were blown away.”

The Phase 4 release is predominately front drive single-family homes ranging from approximately 1,800 to more than 2,500 sq. ft. in size on 32- to 36ft. wide lots starting from the $420,000s. This phase also includes an exclusive offering of just 20 Street Towns by Shane Homes along the enlarged boulevard starting in the mid $300,000s.

As well, under construction as part of Phase 4 is a JULY 20 - AUG 17, 2018 9

pedestrian and vehicular connection south to the community of Luxstone. This connection will provide contiguous pedestrian access between the open-space systems of each community.

The main lure of Midtown is the abundance outdoor conveniences interwoven among inspiring new homes creating a perfect setting for residents to enjoy.

“Midtown is designed surrounding a centralized pond in which community amenities have been built around,” Montgomery says. “The highlight of the pond is a promenade, which provides a passive space to enjoy the pond, but also acts as a destination for the pathway system throughout the community.

“A pedestrian bridge spans from the promenade to the eastern side of the community creating strong pedestrian connectivity,” he notes. “With more than 3.2 km of pathways, Midtown has created a system allowing residents both active and passive recreational opportunities. The pathway system connects the open space throughout the community, which consists of a smaller tot lot park to larger open play areas.”

Midtown residents can also walk to neighbourhood conveniences at Midtown Plaza and nearby established amenities such as a school, grocery store, shops, restaurants and services.

Residents also have easily access to QEII as well as Veterans Boulevard and Yankee Valley Boulevard.

For more information on Midtown, visit the showhomes, open Monday to Thursday, 2 to 8 p.m., weekends and holidays, noon to 5 p.m., or visit midtowninairdrie.com

TOP 5 CALGARY FESTIVALS HAPPENING THIS AUGUST

CODY BATTERSHILL

Looking for some fun things to in the city in August? If so, you won’t want to miss these top five festivals in Calgary!

CALGARY FRINGE FESTIVAL

Aug. 3-11 / calgaryfringe.ca Started more than a decade ago, this “unhinged” arts festival made its debut in YYC with a goal to create a sense of community and tolerance, and a place for creation without restriction where all participating artists could express themselves freely.

Today, you could say the Calgary Fringe Festival has accomplished this – it’s an “uncensored, unexpected and unforgettable” nine-day event with more than 160 performances, most of which are in the downtown area.

If you love theatre, chances are you’ll love the Calgary Fringe Festival and the unique selection of entertainment it brings to the city.

INGLEWOOD SUNFEST

Aug. 4 / inglewoodsunfest.ca Celebrate, engage, be entertained and delight in one of our city’s best festivals found in the inner city community of Inglewood, just east of downtown.

In addition to streetside vendors, live entertainment and a variety of activities for people of all ages, this area is home to more than 200 vendors, offering everything from 12 NextHome.ca

imported wares to artisan crafts, and much, much more!

If shopping isn’t your thing, one of the food trucks or local foodie hangouts will keep your belly full and thirst quenched.

d

TASTE OF CALGARY

Aug. 9-12 / tasteofcalgary.com Calgary’s largest outdoor food and drink festival is coming soon!

There’s no better way to get a taste of all the different types of cuisines – both local and global – from food and drink establishments in YYC than at this event!

It’s the 22nd anniversary of Calgary’s most appetizing summer festival, which means it’ll be the best one yet. Sampling tickets are affordable and can be bought directly at the Eau Claire Market Grounds. Foodies, don’t miss this one!

MARDA GRAS STREET FESTIVAL

Aug. 12 / mardagras.ca The Marda Loop Community is gearing up for its annual Marda Gras Street Festival, a celebration in fashion of Mardi Gras held in New Orleans!

Explore countless restaurants, shops and services, including food trucks and pop-up retail and food stands along 33rd Avenue SW in the popular business improvement area of the southwest.

Street buskers are just one form of live entertainment at this mustsee festival in Calgary. A wide range of activities appeal to all ages.

GLOBALFEST

Aug. 16-25 / globalfest.ca The most explosive festival of the

year is coming soon to Elliston Park in southeast Calgary!

A cultural celebration of epic proportions, GlobalFest showcases YYC’s cultural diversity and artistic excellence through nightly fireworks synced to music originating from each respective world nation included in the festival. These are the most extravagant fireworks shows you’ll see in Calgary all year!

Live cultural performances and food stands serving cuisines from all over the world complement a large night market featuring vendors with quality keepsakes and handcrafted arts.

Wishing you an amazing August!

ADVICE | MORTGAGE INTEL

RATES ON THE RISE WHICH PATH FOR YOUR MORTGAGE?

ALYSSA FURTADO

The Bank of Canada raised its benchmark for the overnight rate in July to 1.50 per cent from 1.25 per cent, and the big banks followed by hiking their mortgage rates.

So, what does that mean for homebuyers who are wondering whether to choose fixed or variable rates?

James Laird, president of CanWise Financial, predicts another possible rate increase by the end of the year.

So, how is this expected to impact mortgage affordability?

And how will it impact a homebuyer’s decision when choosing between fixed or variable rate mortgages?

The truth is that, even with potential rate hikes to come, variable rates may continue to be the more affordable option. Of course, every person’s situation is different, so it’s best to chat with a mortgage broker when choosing the best mortgage and to help you answer the question: “How much house can I afford?”

“This announcement should provide reassurance to those currently in variable rates that rate

increases will be both moderate and gradual,” Laird says. “Those currently choosing between variable and fixed should consider the savings offered by variable rates, as the spread between fixed and variable rates remains at a seven-year high.”

PROPERTY PROFILE

SHANE HOMES’ VISTA III’S It’s been open for only a few weeks, but Shane Homes’ newest paired showhome is making a lasting impression with homebuyers in Redstone in northeast Calgary.

From the stunning tiled feature walls in the kitchen and great room to the his and her walk-in closets in the owner’s suite, Shane is wowing buyers with its Vista III’s incredible features, says Area Manager Belal Fouani.

“The Vista III is a new model for us and people love it,” Fouani says. “From the moment they step into the home, they’re drawn by the spacious, open floorplan and the terrific features that really up the wow factor.

I have one customer who loves the showhome so much they’ve designed their home to match.

“It’s a great design with no wasted space and ideal for entertaining with a large dining nook that can easily seat six to eight people and a massive eightft. island in the kitchen with bar seating,” he adds.

Outside, the 1,630-sq.-ft. Vista III has a welcoming front veranda, while entering inside the foyer provides a sense of privacy with a half-wall separating it from the great room and a dark grey tile floor contrasts nicely with the white and light grey finishes.

Light toned laminate flooring that resembles hardwood runs through the rest of the main floor.

The front family room is warmed by a large window allowing for plenty of natural light, but its most striking feature is the elegant floor-to-ceiling dark brick tile wall that surrounds an electric linear fireplace and provides three lighted niches for artwork.

A central dining nook offers substantial space for meal times and a niche in below the stairs gives buyers a place for a hutch or side table. There is also a halfbath uniquely tucked away on the stairs leading up to the second floor that has stylish tile installed half way up the wall.

The main focal point of this home is the large open concept kitchen with its white marble tile feature wall that wraps around the dark maple cabinets and pantry making it a real showstopper. The kitchen also serves up a gorgeous, expansive quartz-topped island with bar seating, cabinets to the ceiling and stainless steel appliances. A mud room is off the rear entry.

Upstairs, the owners’ suite offers ample space for king-size furniture, an inviting ensuite with an oversized walk-in shower and two walk-in closets. Two generous sized secondary bedrooms, a three-piece bathroom and laundry room complete the second floor.

The Vista III can be customized to include a separate side entrance to the basement, ideal for extended families.

“In total there are just 22 paired homes available including the showhomes and this is our final phase of paired homes here, so buyers are really down to their last opportunity to buy these in Redstone,” Fouani says.

For more information, visit the Vista III at 645 Redstone Dr. N.E., Calgary, or Shane’s 1,565-sq.-ft. Eden III showhome, open Monday to Thursday, 2 to 8 p.m., and weekends and holidays, noon to 5 p.m., call 403.536.2313 or visit shanehomes.com JULY 20 - AUG 17, 2018 33

ADVICE | BILD ALBERTA REPORT

LOCATION OR BUILDER WHICH IS YOUR PRIORITY?

CARMEN WYTON

From carpets to countertops, purchasing a newly built home gives you a lot of options. Before you get to the aesthetics of your home, you will need to make two important decisions: Where you want to live and who will build your new home.

LOCATION VERSUS BUILDER

Really, your first step is to decide whether to prioritize location or builder. If you have your heart set on a specific builder, you will have to be flexible with your location since home builders only have lots in certain communities. If you’re not intent on a specific builder then you may want to consider the location of your home first.

FIND YOUR IDEAL LOCATION

Over the years, there are many things you can change in your home but the location isn’t one of them. Be sure to take time to really discover neighbourhoods and research the new communities you are interested in.

Take a stroll around the area so you can get a good feel for it.

Keep in mind nearby amenities, schools and transportation options. Don’t be afraid to talk to people on the street or knock on doors to ask prospective neighbours for their thoughts on the community. If you can picture yourself living there after your research, that’s a great sign.

Another point to consider is whether the community is still in the early stages of development.

Are you okay with construction in your area after you move in?

Do you like the plans for what the community will look like when it’s finished? Think about these questions when considering a community.

FINDING YOUR PREFERRED BUILDER

Your other possible first step is to choose a home builder. To do this, you’ll want to research the builders you’re considering. Walking through show homes is a great way to get a feel for a builder’s style and craftsmanship. Don’t forget to look into their customer service and support teams since you’ll be working with them a lot.

Choosing a builder who is a member of BILD Alberta will

provide you with peace of mind, as they comply with the association’s standards and best practices in the industry. You can find a member at bildalberta.ca/ find-a-member.

Balancing the big decisions of where you want to live and who will build your home can feel daunting. If you do your research and get your boots on the ground, you’re bound to end up with an amazing place to call home.
