New Home + Condo Guide |

It’s no secret that the housing market in Metro Vancouver is one of the toughest — and most expensive — in the country. Nonetheless, a growing number of people are realizing that necessity is the mother of invention when it comes to making their dream of owning a home a reality.

In this issue of New Home + Condo Guide, Michelle Hopkins writes about families who found creative ways to achieve their homeowning goals. In some countries, co-owning a home with family members is a regular occurrence. But what about buying a home with friends? Read about one family’s experience, and some input from a real estate lawyer, on page 20.

Another smart couple purchased a dream hobby farm and a new condo that brings in passive income as a short-term rental property. See page 40 and read how they leveraged their home equity to change their lives — for the better.

Columnist Cameron McNeil offers tips for newhome buyers, from finding builder incentives to working with in-house experts and mortgage brokers.

See what he has to say on page 30.

There’s always more than one way to get to your destination, even when it comes to owning a home.

Sometimes, you just have to be creative.

You belong in Coquitlam’s best neighbourhood.

Cover Story APEX AT SEYLYNN VILLAGE

Apex

A North Shore Jewel Perched where the ocean meets the mountains, Seylynn Village is becoming one of North Vancouver’s most sought after neighbourhoods. This award-winning master-planned community by Denna Homes sits near the entry to the Ironworkers Memorial Bridge and features expansive mountain, downtown Vancouver and Burrard Inlet views, as well as close proximity to beaches, trails, Highway 1 connections to North Vancouver, Vancouver, Burnaby and beyond.

With towers Beacon and Compass complete, Seylynn Village now

NextHome+CondoGuide | Mar. 23–Apr. 6, 2019

welcomes the final tower to this exciting new community, the 32-storey Apex, soon to be the North Shore’s tallest tower and the pinnacle of the Seylynn Village community.

Homes at Apex vary from one- to four-bedrooms, with a limited collection of studios, townhomes, two-storey Jewel Box residences and penthouses. Design emphasis is placed on making homes feel spacious, take advantage of the amazing surrounding views, and have the finishing, amenities and “overall feel of a global five-star residence,” says Dr. Abo Taheri, managing partner at Denna Homes.

This feeling begins the moment you enter Apex’s grand lobby, complete with concierge and dramatic three-storey-high ceilings creating a grand sense of arrival. Apex also offers a large group entertainment room with stylish fireside lounge and dining area complete with a bar kitchen. In addition, there is a media lounge with kitchenette and a residents-only podium rooftop space with seating to relax and enjoy views with friends and neighbours.

The resort-style feeling continues at the residents-only Denna Club in Seylynn Village: More than 14,000-sq.-ft. of amenities, including a 25-metre swimming pool, sauna, steam room, club-style locker rooms, full fitness centre with personal training, group classes by Level 10 Fitness and yoga space.

Apex residences are inspired living spaces designed for modern lives, with overheight ceilings and expansive window glazing to show off the gorgeous views and let in abundant natural light, giving each home an airy ambience. Stylish interiors designed by CHIL Interior Design come in three different style schemes for Tower and Podium Residences, with reimagined schemes and finishing for the Denna Collection homes (Jewel Box, Sub Penthouse and Penthouse Residences.) There’s additional room for guests in a furnished guest suite, and downstairs, there’s ample power for an electric vehicle as well as a wash station for a car, bike or dog after a muddy excursion.

“We are very proud of the recognition that Seylynn Village has received from the Urban Development Institute for Best Master-Planned Community,” says Dr. Taheri. “We have taken great pride in building the Denna Club and towers Beacon and Compass in Seylynn Village and we believe Apex will be a tremendous addition to this flourishing community.”

Seylynn Village will have onsite child care, and the village is walking distance from the Lynn Creek trails and dog park, Superstore, Mountain Equipment Co-Op, cafes and more. The District of North Vancouver has exciting plans for a vibrant and transit-oriented new Lynn Creek Village Centre, which includes parks, a high street and varied housing and commercial spaces, bringing all the convenience of urban life, pedestrian and biking corridors, and economic opportunity to the neighbourhood. Over the Ironworker’s Memorial Bridge, it’s only 10 minutes from downtown Vancouver and even faster into Burnaby, and skiing, kayaking, hiking, biking and everything else you can do in the great outdoors is right here.

HUNTER WEST THE FUTURE OF NORTH SHORE LIVING

Change is in the air in the Lower Lynn Creek neighbourhood.

There’s a sense of vibrancy and excitement as the area continues its transformation into a dynamic new urban hub, one of four designated town centres in the District of North Vancouver’s official community plan.

up-and-coming neighbourhood is where you’ll find Hunter West, the second of two iconic towers located on Lynn Creek and adjacent to Seylynn and Bridgeman parks. “This is the only new concrete construction west of Mountain Highway and adjacent to the river,” says Jack Bernard, senior sales director with Rennie. “So not only does that make the setting much quieter and greener, many of these homes offer unobstructed views of the mountains, creek and even Burrard Inlet.”

COMMUNITY VIBE

“This area is going to be completely transformed,” says Bernard. “Ultimately, it’s expected to be home to 3,000 new residents here as well as 120,000 sq. ft. of retail space and 50,000 sq. ft. of office. Plus, Intergulf is building a 27,000 sq. ft. community centre right next door for the District of North Vancouver.”

Hunter itself will be across the road from a new high street with an inviting public plaza featuring plenty of outdoor gathering spots

and eye-catching public art, the perfect complement to the many already thriving artisanal coffee shops, craft breweries, sports and bike shops, including MEC, plus a diverse array of restaurants.

STYLISH LIVING

Inside, Hunter offers openconcept floorplans with elegant wide-plank flooring, Europeaninspired kitchens, Fisher & Paykel appliances and spacious private balconies. There’s also a state-ofthe-art, four-pipe Jaga hydronic heating and cooling system, easy on your wallet, easy on the environment.

The Hunter West presentation centre and display suites are open noon to 5 p.m. daily except Fridays at 1519 Hunter in North Vancouver. Studio homes priced from $504,900, one-bedrooms from $589,900, two-bedrooms from $734,900.

IS CO-OWNING A HOME RIGHT FOR YOU? AFFORDABLE OPTION BECOMING POPULAR

by MICHELLE HOPKINS

Some Vancouverites priced out of the real estate game are finding unique ways to make home ownership a reality.

For Geordie Aitken and his wife Magda Dominik, leadership consultants in their early 40s, the arrival of their son Walker sparked the idea of co-owning a home with long-time friends, Joe MacLeod and Margaret Shipley. In 2014, the two families bought a 2,700-sq.-ft., two-level home in North Vancouver.

“I was the doubter at first, but my wife, who was raised in a multi-generational home in Poland, 20

New Home + Condo Guide | Mar. 23–Apr. 6, 2019

convinced me that it could work,” says Aitken. “Five years later, and I can honestly say it’s been great.”

For this arrangement to work, both families treated it like a business deal. “We drafted a partnership agreement that covers all of the possibilities, including right of first refusal should one couple decide they want to sell, to maintenance costs and more,” says Aitken, adding each family lives in a fully separate suite but share the backyard.

According to a 2017 RE/MAX survey, a third of Canadians would consider co-buying a home together.

Devj specializes in real estate.

Photo at left: Geordie Aitken co-owns a home with friends.

These findings don’t surprise Aneez Devji, a lawyer with Richards Buell Sutton LLP, specializing in real estate.

“We’ve seen a number of clients look at unique or alternate arrangements to purchase homes,” says Devji.

“We are also seeing a lot of help from parents. There are numerous examples of parents providing down payments and significant monetary ‘gifts’ to their children to assist them in purchasing a home. Sometimes the parents come with the ‘gift’ and all parties live together in the new home.”

While combining funds with family or friends for that coveted backyard sounds great, the home can come with unique challenges and legal ramifications.

Before signing on the dotted line, there are a host of aspects to consider, including the allocation of day-to-day responsibilities, cost sharing and decisions surrounding major issues such as financing, selling, renovations and more.

“These factors should be discussed and carefully considered prior to purchasing a home with families and/or friends,” Devji says. “From a financing perspective, lenders will typically require each owner to be responsible for the entire debt and it may be more difficult to arrange financing when one or more parties have limited or no credit history.”

In addition, the ownership structure will vary depending on the long-term plans of the parties as some opt for ownership as “joint tenants” (i.e. right of survivorship) and others opt for ownership as “tenants in common” (i.e. upon death, their share of an asset becomes part of their estate). There are practical and cost-efficient mechanisms set out in these agreements such as a “co-owners’ agreement” to specifically address issues like death, divorce and bankruptcy.

“If neither party is willing to buy out the other, you may

end up having one of the parties retain legal counsel to bring an action to force the sale of the property, which may not be the best decision from a financial perspective, let alone the stresses doing so can cause to the relationship,” he says.

In the end, both Aitken and Devji encourage anyone contemplating this type of arrangement to carefully weigh all the issues they may or are likely to face and candidly discuss how they plan on addressing those issues prior to purchasing a property.

“The parties should establish a mechanism to address how to overcome issues that arise during their ownership of the property,” adds Devji. “The issues may be minor, but if there is no pre-established mechanism for addressing them, they could be the cause of a very expensive break-up.” Aitken agrees.

“You must have trust, but aside from that, I would encourage people to hire a coach or moderator to facilitate a dialogue around all of the issues,” says Aitken. nexthome.ca

NEIGHBOURHOOD PROFILE

AUSTIN HEIGHTS A NEIGHBOURHOOD IN TRANSITION

by MARIA RANTANEN

Austin Heights in the Tri-City’s Coquitlam is a neighbourhood in transition. The City’s 20year plan, which is still in development, suggests that new homes, shops and businesses are coming to the area, making Austin Heights a desirable place for families and people of all ages who want a place to live and play.

LIFESTYLE

Austin Heights, like the rest of Coquitlam, is known for its greenspaces and recreational facilities. This neighbourhood is 26

New Home + Condo Guide |

Mar. 23–Apr. 6, 2019

very walkable, with plenty of local shops and services – and more on the way. There is also a community centre, a sports and leisure complex, parks, a lawn bowling club and a recreation centre.

PLANES, TRAINS & AUTOMOBILES

Walking and cycling are great ways to get around Austin Heights and with a wide array of nearby services, there isn’t any great need to hop in a car.

Public transit runs regularly and connects to the SkyTrain system.

Lougheed and Barnet highways

as well as Highway 1 are just a quick drive away for those going farther distances.

THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE REST

Austin Heights is currently being redeveloped, with changes that are both exciting and controversial; some are less than enthusiastic about incoming highrises, though most agree that the proposed changes are positive and exciting.

Residents like the community feel of Austin Heights and connecting with their neighbours at the many local facilities.

HOT SPOTS

POIRIER SPORT & LEISURE COMPLEX Pools, a rink and a fitness centre are located inside this 190,000-sq.-ft. recreational facility in Austin Heights. It is also home to the Coquitlam Sports Hall of Fame. coquitlam.ca

+

STREET CORNER

“People in Austin Heights are very loyal – they like to buy local.”

– DANIEL, LOCAL SHOPKEEPER

“The area is very friendly and very green. It’s also convenient – I can walk my dog in the park instead of on the streets.”

– MEREDETH, STUDENT

“I absolutely love Austin Heights because of the parks. And everything you need is within a 10-minute walking distance.”

– LORI, WAITRESS

CENTENNIAL ROSE GARDEN This small park located just behind the Dogwood Pavilion recreation centre is filled with more than 800 roses. The park is supported by volunteer members of the Fraser Pacific Rose Society. fprosesociety.org

POIRIER COMMUNITY CENTRE This community centre offers arts, social and educational programs for visitors of all ages. Children, youth and adults can enroll in swimming, ice sports, camps and other activities. coquitlam.ca

WORKING WITH YOUR MORTGAGE BROKER

CAMERON MCNEILL

The months of February and March saw more than 10 projects open its doors for sales to the public. The majority of the projects that launched were highrises in Central Surrey and Burnaby and woodframe projects across the Fraser Valley. Now is a great time for buyers to take advantage of the incentives being offered at a number of these projects and enjoy a more relaxed purchasing decision.

Developers are offering a variety of incentives from complimentary renovation upgrades to no GST for a limited time.

IN-HOUSE EXPERTISE

Pre-sale developments have in-house sales teams who are experts in knowing the project inside out. Leverage their knowledge and experience to help you select the right floorplans and colour schemes that best suit your family’s lifestyle. The time required to find true value in a home, alongside competitive pricing incentives, is on your side.

Couple your presentation centre visits with neighbourhood tours and do your research on future neighbourhood plans. The sale teams would be able to provide insight on this intel alongside the history on the developer and their future plans.

Keep in mind there is more to your mortgage than just the rate.

Getting educated on lenders that provide the best options for debt consolidations, renovation costs and renewals is the best approach. Working with your mortgage broker to leverage the best rate for a pre-approval, negotiate terms, structure mortgages and mortgage default insurance will ease the stress of homeownership long term.

Discussions on your short- and long-term financial plan can be a wealth creator for you over time.

LONG TERM OUTLOOK

Real estate should always be treated with a long-term mindset.

It is cyclical and we will always be in one of those cycles. However, purchasing with a five-year timeline and not thinking about making a quick investment should always be top-of-mind when buying. Vancouver is great place to live and will always see demand from buyers or renters alike.

NON-RESIDENT CONDO OWNERSHIP HIGHEST IN THREE CANADIAN HOUSING MARKETS New information released March 12 from the Canadian Housing Statistics Program (CHSP) sheds light on the prevalence of nonresident homeownership in three Canadian housing markets: British Columbia, Ontario and Nova Scotia.

A non-resident owner is defined as a person who has their primary dwelling outside of Canada.

“Condominium apartments had 34 New Home + Condo Guide |

Mar. 23–Apr. 6, 2019

the highest prevalence of nonresident ownership, particularly in Vancouver and Toronto,” says Aled ab Iorwerth, Deputy Chief Economist, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. “In general, non-resident ownership is more frequent in newer and higher value residential properties. The CHSP data allows us to better understand the role of non-residents as

a component of demand in Canadian housing markets, a topic that is of public interest in terms of the source of funds and the investment behaviour associated with such properties.”

STUDY HIGHLIGHTS Non-resident participation in housing markets

Properties that have at least one

non-resident owner amounted to 6.2 per cent in British Columbia (Vancouver 7.6 per cent), 3.3 per cent in Ontario (Toronto 3.8 per cent) and 6.2 per cent in Nova Scotia (Halifax 4.3 per cent). The proportion of nonresident participation is highest for condominium apartments. Condos with at least one non-resident owner was at 10.4 per cent in British Columbia and 6.1 per cent in Ontario, and higher in Vancouver (11.2 per cent) and Toronto.

In Vancouver, properties constructed in 2016-2017 with at least one non-resident owner is 15.3 per cent, compared with 11.2 per cent for those built between 2011-2015 and less than six per cent for properties constructed between 1961-1990. This figure is higher (19.2 per cent) for condominium apartments built in 2016-2017.

In comparison, the share of Toronto properties constructed in 2016-2017 with at least one nonresident owner is 6.1 per cent, while the share for residential properties of all periods of construction is 3.8 per cent.

In Nova Scotia, the proportion of properties that have at least one non-resident owner is higher in the rest of the province (7.1

per cent) than in the Halifax CMA (4.3 per cent), suggesting that non-resident ownership is more prevalent among vacationoriented properties outside of the province’s major urban centre.

Comparison of median assessment value between non-resident and resident owned properties

The median assessment value of condominiums owned by nonresidents is higher than those owned by residents in British Columbia (29.1 per cent), Ontario (20.2 per cent), and Nova Scotia (10.8 per cent). In Vancouver, the median assessment value of a condominium owned by a nonresident is $96,000 more than one owned by a resident, the highest differential in the Vancouver CMA. In Toronto, the median assessment value of a condominium owned by a nonresident is $37,000 more than one owned by a resident, the highest differential in the Toronto CMA. The largest differential between non-resident and resident-owned median assessment value was in single-detached houses in British Columbia at $236,000 (36.7 per cent higher than the median assessment value of resident

Under the CHSP, non-resident homeownership is measured in two ways: By residency ownership and residency participation. Under residency ownership, a property is classified as non-resident owned when the majority of owners are non-residents. Under residency participation, a property is classified as having non-resident participation when at least one owner is non-resident.

owned single-detached houses).

In Ontario, the median assessment value of single detached houses owned by nonresidents was lower than those owned by residents by $35,000, but the data shows differently in Ontario’s two largest urban centres of Toronto and OttawaGatineau (Ontario part).

Total number of owners of residential properties

Approximately half of properties in British Columbia, Ontario, and Nova Scotia had two owners, while properties with three or more owners made up a small share of properties in the three provinces.

Most resident-owned properties in Vancouver had two owners, while non-resident-owned properties tended to have one.

Vancouver had a much higher share of single-detached properties with one owner built between 2011 and 2017 (39.9 per cent) compared to Toronto (25.8 per cent). In Nova Scotia, most properties had two owners, followed by properties owned by a single owner. Properties with three or more owners represented 4.5 per cent of the total stock, a figure higher than both in British Columbia and Ontario.

These complementary concepts permit a more detailed understanding of non-resident activity.

The concept of non-resident participation, in particular, illustrates the upper bounds of non-resident ownership in these provinces, as reported in the most recent Housing Market Insight (HMI) released by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC).

COUPLE USES EQUITY TO MAKE FARM DREAM A REALITY

by MICHELLE HOPKINS In 2012, Rachel and Ross Dempster were living in one side of a duplex they purchased for $490,000 in Horseshoe Bay, West Vancouver. They also owned the other half, which they purchased for $480,000 and rented out.

Once the couple started their family, Rachel tired of the traffic and stress of city life and yearned for something simpler.

“I grew up on a farm in the UK and really wanted that lifestyle for our two kids,” she says. “One day, Ross was on the computer and saw an 8.5-acre hobby farm with a 40

2,500-sq.-ft.-home for sale on the Sunshine Coast.”

Before she knew it, they were on the phone with the listing agent.

“We bought it in 2013 for $757,000 and initially purchased it as a weekend getaway,” Rachel says.

In 2016, they sold the half of the West Vancouver duplex they lived in for $1.32 million and the other half of their duplex for $1.95 million and moved to their farm, Appleton Ranch, permanently.

“We had looked at a similar farm outside White Rock and it was for sale for $10 million,” adds Rachel,

now a realtor with several clients who want to make the same move as her family did.

Freeing up equity from one side of their West Vancouver duplex and buying the Appleton Ranch meant the couple had money to purchase a rental property.

“We bought a two-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse apartment in the River District for $669,000,” says Rachel. “My husband is in the film industry, so when he is working, he does use it, but otherwise, we rent it out as an Airbnb.”

Appleton Ranch

The Dempsters say they couldn’t be happier with their choice.

“Making the move was the best thing financially and for our family,” she says. “Also, if we time the ferry traffic right, we can be at West Vancouver’s Park Royal Shopping Centre from our farm in 50 minutes.”

Don Campbell, senior analyst at the Real Estate Investment Network (REIN), has seen hundreds of his clients sell their expensive Lower Mainland homes and repeat

Appleton Ranch

scenarios similar to the Dempsters.

“Unleashing the equity locked in your Lower Mainland home can offer a wealth of choices, whether that is using the money for rental or vacation properties or to help grown children get into the market,” he says.

Having said that, Campbell does caution his clients that leaving behind family, friends and a beloved neighbourhood, can prove to be more difficult than some people realize. “For those Appleton Ranch

who are really attached to their neighbourhood, but want to cash in on their home’s equity, I suggest they downsize and buy a new condo in or close to their neighbourhood.”

Yet, what Campbell has seen over the last few years is more and more Vancouverites moving outside the Lower Mainland. “I tell people to ask themselves the following: What is your goal in selling? Do you want the condo lifestyle, or maybe you want to buy a vacation home?

Whatever you choose, ask yourself important questions, because if you make it just about the money, there can be regrets down the road.”

In the end, there is no right or wrong reason to unlock and invest your equity.

“First and foremost, if you want to move away from the Lower Mainland, just make sure you are doing it to enhance your lifestyle first,” adds Campbell. nexthome.ca

SURVEY: BCERS VIEW ENVIRONMENT AND CLIMATE AS KEY TO

QUALITY OF LIFE The Real Estate Foundation of BC (REFBC) revealed in January the results of a public opinion poll it commissioned in the summer of 2018. The online survey, conducted

by McAllister Opinion Research, questioned the views of 1,658 British Columbians on quality of life, sustainable economy, local needs, land protection, penalties for polluters, First Nations as partners, and regionally specific concerns.

“Poll findings help to quantify the needs and opinions of the people of British Columbia,” says Jack Wong, CEO of the REFBC. “Climate change is a large concern for people across the province and we hope that decision-makers will use this data to make choices that are in the best interests for everyone.”

HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE REPORT INCLUDE:

Quality of Life: Slightly more than half of the respondents (54 per cent) rate quality of life in their region of BC as “excellent” or “good”. Forty-one per cent named natural beauty and 44

Mar. 23–Apr. 6, 2019

the environment as a top factor and 22 per cent cited the climate. Top threats to quality of life are the cost of living (18 per cent), housing (11 per cent), and population increase (11 per cent).

and animals” (66 per cent), “local food security” (62 per cent) and “large-scale wind, solar, and geothermal power” (61 per cent ) are the top three land use priorities for the province.

Sustainability: Of those questioned, 81 per cent support harsh penalties, including jail time, for people and companies who pollute or degrade the land and water. When asked to identify the kind of economy that would appeal to them, 53 per cent say a sustainable one, 30 per cent prefer a clean energy economy, and 25 per cent want a green economy. Nine per cent prefer a service economy, nine per cent an industrial one and three per cent an extraction economy.

First Nations: When it comes to ensuring First Nations are included in landuse decisions, 86 per cent of respondents agree that “we are neighbours and friends and we need to live together.”

“These findings show that British Columbians value our shared land and water and want to see more local input into land-use decisions,” says Ramona Faust, chair of REFBC’s board of governors.

“In our grant-making, we’ve seen how investments in watershed governance, community engagement, and public outreach can contribute to more sustainable land use outcomes.”

To read the full report, go to refbc.com/sites/default/ files/REFBC-SLU-OpinionFullReport-2019.pdf

Local Needs: Nearly half of respondents (48 per cent) want local needs prioritized over provincial interests.

Land Protection: BCers say “habitat for birds, fish,

cleaning hacks

by SARA DUCK

Are you planning to refresh your home after the long winter?

We have you covered! For the past 123 years, Libman has been producing quality cleaning products to help keep your space sparkling. We’ve teamed up with the brand to give you five cleaning hacks (with emphasis on green products) to help make the most of your spring cleaning time and resources.

Hack #1 - Ceiling fans Use a damp cloth or wet pillowcase (reuse old pillowcases!) to wipe ceiling fans that have accumulated cobwebs and dust during the winter. If you’re unable to reach the blades this way, try using a microfibre duster with a large extension pole for hard-toreach places.

Go green: Microfibre dust mop by Libman. The mop cloth is machine washable and the handle is made from partially recycled steel (up to 70 per cent). $17. Homedepot.ca

2 Hack #2 - Chandelier and ceiling fan lights Take the glass light bulb covers off ceiling fans and chandeliers and stick them in the dishwasher. They come out sparkling clean, and it’s less work for your tired hands.

Hack #3 - Area rugs Take area rugs outside on a dry day and beat them with a broom to remove dirt, lint and debris. Spray the rugs outside with a natural carpet deodorizer to refresh them and let them air dry. After bringing them back inside, vacuum rugs thoroughly.

ADVICE | INDUSTRY INSIDER

A CELEBRATION OF EXCELLENCE AND A SIGNAL TO THE CONSUMER

SCOTT BROWN

Awards season in the entertainment industry peaked with the recent Academy Awards and crescendos in Canada with the annual Juno Awards gala.

The Juno Awards are presented to Canadian musical artists and bands to acknowledge their artistic and technical achievements in all aspects of music. The honour of receiving these awards is a crowning achievement in any performing artist’s career.

Each spring, the new-home development industry seeks to honour its own as well. In major markets throughout Canada, industry associations coordinate competitions to inspire excellence, and acknowledge the achievements of developers, new-home builders, architects, sales and marketing professionals, designers and graphic agencies.

In Vancouver, a number of awards are sought out by developers, including the Urban Development Institute’s Awards of Excellence, the Ovation Awards – directed by the Homebuilders Association Vancouver (HAVAN) – and the Georgie Awards®, owned and produced by the Canadian Home Builders’ Association of British Columbia (CHBA BC).

The latter is recognized both provincially and nationally as a premier housing-awards program 48

New Home + Condo Guide |

Mar. 23–Apr. 6, 2019

that highlights and celebrates excellence in home building in British Columbia.

In Toronto, the noteworthy annual BILD Awards gala is held each Spring. This program is presented by the Building Industry and Land Development Association (BILD). Established in 1980, the BILD Awards recognize excellence and innovation in the design, construction, sales and marketing of new homes in the Greater Toronto Area. The myriad of awards celebrates all phases of bringing a new community to life, from land use to technical suite design to creative marketing techniques. The Association also presents prestigious Pinnacle Awards such as Home Builder of the Year.

Why should consumers care about these awards? Well, both the Georgie Awards® and the BILD awards involve the consumer in the assessment process and to avoid bias, select judges from out of the market area within which the project resides. Given the rigorous entry and judging process, the consumer can be rest assured that an award earned is a clear indicator with respect to the quality of the developer/builder.

In our four decades of work, Fifth Avenue has had the good fortune to work with our clients to achieve 150-plus awards for excellence, leadership and innovation with respect to newhome development and real estate marketing and sales. In addition, this year it is our privilege once again to serve as a judge at these

awards instead of a recipient.

We thank the BILD awards for selecting Fifth Avenue as a judge for the second year in a row.

Finally, as both a judge and a recipient, we know first-hand the rigorous process used to submit an entry and arrive at a winner. This rigour is a sign of the commitment of those who enter.

So, in our experience, an industry award is a stamp of quality. The effort and time invested to pursue and recognize excellence is well worth it and sends a positive signal to the consumer.

Scott Brown is the president and CEO of Fifth Avenue Real Estate Marketing Ltd. – a residential real estate marketing firm with 39 years of experience in the new-home sales market. Scott is passionate about the real estate industry, and brings with him an unparalleled level of expertise and an innovative approach to the marketing and sales of new-home developments from the ground up.

GABRIOLA PARK NATURAL LIVING

If you want to be the proud owner of a brand-new home in the awardwinning Gabriola Park community, you better hurry.

The final phases of three- and four-bedroom townhomes, some with a master on the main, are now all for sale and will be ready for move-in late summer/early fall. Featuring its newest floorplan, sunny, southern exposures and spacious front yards, the Walk Up Collection is clearly wowing families and savvy downsizers alike.

“People love knowing they can walk to Willoughby Town Centre, the Langley Events Centre, parks and schools,” says sales manager Tianne Davidson. “And because the entire community will be completely built out soon, it’s going to feel extremely quiet and tranquil.”

LOVE YOUR HOME

Plus, you’ll find easy care quartz countertops and a trio of oval pendants with Edison-style LED bulbs to complement the modern interpretation of Shaker cabinetry that’s a pleasing visual balance between contemporary minimalism and rustic cottagestyle ambiance.

And for anyone who believes barbecuing is a year-round activity, most homes include a covered patio. Sweet.

Interiors are thoughtfully designed with oversized windows, openconcept floorplans, and sophisticated finishings. The textured laminate flooring in the main living areas and premium carpet in the bedrooms blend for a great look with comfort.

Gourmet kitchens include an entertainment-sized island, some as long as 12 feet. After all, the party always ends up in the kitchen, so why not make it convenient and comfortable? And here’s something cool: A state-of-the-art microwave drawer, a feature typically only seen in single-family homes, has a retractable control panel keeping it safe from curious toddlers.

The Gabriola Park presentation centre and display home are open at 20498 – 82 Avenue in Langley, noon to 5 p.m. weekends, and Tuesday through Thursday (closed Friday/Monday). Priced from $604,900. For more information, visit gabriolapark.com or call 604.371.1892.

CENTRAL SPACIOUS LIVING IN HISTORIC MURRAYVILLE Murrayville’s Four Corners neighbourhood was settled in 1870, and the historic charm of the neighbourhood has endured over the years. Long appealing to families and those who appreciate the quiet, rural life, Murrayville’s central location in Langley and convenient access to highways and the rest of the Lower Mainland have always made it a popular place to live.

Now there is an attractive new addition to the area, CENTRAL, an elegant lowrise building by award-winning Zenterra, featuring Westcoast architecture that is sure to enhance the Murrayville ambiance and entice new residents to the area.

Zenterra Developments has been on a roll lately, with more than 20 industry awards in the last five years, particularly for Hyde Park and SOHO in South Surrey.

With the stellar location, beautiful design and quality construction of CENTRAL, the company is certain to keep up this momentum.

Outside, beautiful landscaping leads residents to a children’s play area, a maze, and an outdoor lounge space perfect for relaxing and entertaining. Says Zenterra’s Sam Milani, “These homes will really appeal to downsizers who want the convenience of amenityrich urban living without the hassle of maintaining a single-family home, along with young families looking for convenience in their busy schedules.”

The one-, one-plus-den- and two-bedroom-homes feature

practical floorplans with two colour schemes to choose from.

Many units have high ceilings with extra-tall windows that fill the homes with natural light, and all homes have elegant and durable wide-plank laminate flooring throughout the living areas and soft plush carpeting in the bedrooms. Kitchens are inviting, with stainless steel appliances from Samsung and Kitchen-Aid. An amenity suite is the perfect place to host your next party or gathering, with 1,500 sq. ft. of space including a kitchenette, bar, sitting area and pool tables.

ADVICE | HAVAN REPORT

LIVING IN A SMALL SPACE DOESN’T HAVE TO CRAMP YOUR STYLE yourself these questions: Is this item too big for my new space?

Does it bring me true joy? Is this a furniture piece we can refinish and repurpose?

BOB DE WIT

Whether you are downsizing, buying a smaller condo or laneway home, less space can create challenges. At Meme Brooks Design, small space is no big deal.

Meme thrives on the challenge of creating small spaces that burst with style, not at the seams.

Working with Ovation Award finalist JDL Homes, Meme Brooks Interior Designers focused on luxurious living in the tiny laneway home, Country Chic Laneway, nominated for two Ovation Awards: 2019 finalist for Best New Small-Scale Home, and Best New Kitchen Under $50,000.

Speaking with Meme, she says: ‘A common mistake people often make is to move their full house-sized furniture into their new smaller space. All this does is cramp your style and constantly remind you of your bigger home.”

Meme recommends leaving your concept of living in a big house behind and start fresh with the right-sized furniture for your new home. “Just because your space is small, doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice your style and comfort,” she says.

MEME BROOKS DOWNSIZING TIPS:

TIP #1 Less is more. When downsizing, bring only the very best of what you have, taking time to analyze every item, asking 58

New Home + Condo Guide |

Mar. 23–Apr. 6, 2019

TIP #2 Measure your room and fit the maximum sized furniture piece into the space. Don’t just go out and purchase a bunch of little tiny furniture pieces – maximize and fit the largest piece you can.

This goes for your area rugs and lighting as well.

TIP #3 When purchasing new furniture, take note of legs. Having furniture off the floor, or with long legs so you see underneath it, will create an airy feeling and visually take up less floor space.

TIP #4 Layer with colour and texture. Having visual depth in your room will give the illusion of more space. Wallpaper, artwork and throw pillows all help create that feeling of space.

TIP #5 One of our most important tips – always make sure your new furniture items will fit in the elevator and through your door.

You don’t want to be disappointed if your new furniture can’t fit through the doors in your home.

Measure the doorways, hallways, around corners, ceiling heights and the elevator; then triple check your measurements.

Lighten your laundry load

by CLARE KUMAR

Productivity coach, Clare Kumar, is on a mission to help people have more fun while getting things done, and laundry is no exception. Read on to find ways to start enjoying this mundane task.

KEEP COLLECTION EASY Make sure you have an easy way to gather laundry anywhere it collects. Bedrooms or a shared bathroom are ideal spots to keep hampers. A corner unit is fun in a kid’s room. You can make tossing laundry in the hamper a fun way to get kids involved in the process. Hampers now come in a wide range of finishes as well, so you can find something to blend in with your decor. I love the wide variety of options at Neatfreak (neatfreak.com)

HANG DARKS AND DELICATES TO DRY A foldable, yet very sturdy rack in narrower dimensions means you can tuck drying laundry into a smaller space, and possibly even out of sight. This rack from Canadian Tire (canadiantire. ca) is strong enough to hold not only clothes on the bars, but clothes on hangers along the edges as well, increasing drying capacity.

Mar. 23–Apr. 6, 2019

FIT LAUNDRY IN VIRTUALLY ANYWHERE

SHIFT YOUR MINDSET Whether it be processing receipts or doing laundry, a task that one finds tedious can be elevated with careful thought. Think of your clothing as a tool to help you do what you want to do and to help you make the impression you want to make in the world. Doing laundry then becomes taking care of the clothes that take care of you. This shift in perspective can elevate laundry from a mundane task to an act of love and honour.

If space is tight, in a spot only 24-inches wide, you can install the ventless, Smart All-In-One Washer and Dryer from Whirlpool (whirlpool.ca), which as it sounds, includes both the washer and the dryer in one machine! Not only does it save space, you don’t have to worry about switching clothes from the washer to the dryer. It also saves you time with its high-capacity dispenser that holds up to 20 loads-worth of laundry detergent. With the new Whirlpool app, you can turn it on from anywhere. This allows you to start a load while waiting for your daughter to hit the ice at hockey practice and track progress while away.

SIMPLIFYING THE PROCESS

GIVE YOURSELF A TREAT If you’re like me, in the winter months, your skin is dry. Add water, laundry and cleaning to the list, and you have a recipe for dry, cracked skin. Why not have a luxurious salve on hand to use while doing the laundry, especially after any hand-washing, to keep your skin feeling soft and smooth? Made in Canada, from 80 per cent organic ingredients, toxin-free DermaCare Skin Salve from eScential Wellness (escentialwellness. com) will make you feel like you’re pampering yourself after some hard work.

Whenever you go into the laundry room, typically your hands are full. What better way to make the laundry process even more seamless than to have a touchless light switch? Just walk into the room, and the light switches on for you. It’s simple things like this that can help ease the chore of this everyday task. The Home Depot Canada (homedepot.ca) has several options from which to choose.

4 Hack #4 - Linens and curtains It’s a good idea to freshen up pillows, blankets, comforters and even curtains as they have likely accumulated dust and odours. For a quick refresh, gather and hang linens and curtains outside on a clothesline. For a deeper clean, you may want to throw them into the washing machine if the tag indicates it’s safe to do so, then hang them outside.

This is both eco-friendly and economical.

Clean green!

Make these DIY eco-friendly cleaning recipes from the Oil Girls part of your cleaning routine.

Deodorize your carpets, upholstery and mattresses with this super natural cleaning dust. Sprinkle and let sit for two hours before vacuuming up! The baking soda absorbs any nasty odours or moisture and the Pure Young Living essential oils leave a plant power scent without the nasty synthetic chemicals found in most household products.

5 Hack #5 - Walls Fill your sink with a natural, general purpose cleaner such as water and vinegar. Dip your very clean mop into the sink, remove all excess solution, and then mop your walls. This will remove most stains with ease! No rinsing is required, if you keep the mop dry enough.

Go green: Jumbo cotton wet mop from Libman.

This mop is made from reground or repurposed plastic shavings from drill holes. The handle is made from partially recycled steel (up to 70 per cent). $15. Canadiantire.ca For more information on Libman visit libman.com

Super natural cleaning dust 1 cup baking soda (aluminum free) 30 drops Young Living purification essential oil 10 drops Young Living citronella essential oil Add to a glass jar. Sprinkle on any fabric surface Clean your walls (or any surface) with the germ-fighting power of Thieves. This 100 per cent natural cleaner uses the essential oils of clove, cinnamon, lemon, rosemary and eucalyptus to simplify your cleaning. Thieves cleaner concentrate is the bomb of natural cleaning solutions – simply add one capful of Thieves to a 16-oz glass spray bottle and top up with water. Use to clean windows, counters, toilets, hardwood floors and more without any harmful chemicals for children or pets to worry about.

One-, two- and three-bedroom condominium homes and Garden Townhomes offer something for everyone, from young families to downsizers. The close proximity to schools, shopping, parks and transit gives this neighbourhood a walkability factor that is unrivaled in Coquitlam.

Big plans are in the works for the Austin Heights area, starting with the brand new, 65,000 sq. ft. Safeway, along with 15,000 sq. ft. of retail and office space. The Heights on Austin sits adjacent to a new, expansive pedestrian promenade planned for Ridgeway Avenue Walk between Marmont and Nelson streets. With more than 250 shops, 750 acres of greenspace within 4km of Austin Heights, three Skytrain stations within a five-minute drive and the ease of highway access, the community is convenient, scenic and connected.

The two distinctive, modern towers have a total of 356 homes, and were designed by Chris Dikeakos Architects. Beedie Living is known for creating exceptionally livable communities, and The Heights on Austin is a perfect example, with more than 25,000 sq. ft. of outdoor and indoor amenity space between both towers. With outdoor areas created for socializing and enjoying the scenery, the landscaped terraces lead to patios and a children’s play area.
