One of the most exciting innovations at YPNextHome over the last two years has been creating Neighbourhood Profiles – comprising a wealth of data and information – from across the country. In every issue of New Home & Condo Guide, we’ll show you at least one of these featured neighbourhoods. And if you look online, you’ll find more than 2,800 neighbourhoods you can search as part of your experience on YPNextHome.ca. That’s a lot of information.
Our curated neighbourhood content provides a lively snapshot of some of Canada’s more popular neighbourhoods. These profiles have been researched and compiled by a nationwide team of writers and editors, and they include photos and, in some cases, exclusive video tours with local celebrities and wellknown residents. Demographics, housing types and other information... all leading to listings in the area. Check it out and let us know what you think.

In the days leading up to the Bank of Canada’s interest rate announcement on Sept. 9, some economists wondered if another rate reduction might be in the offing. Spotty economic conditions and challenging housing markets in some areas led some to believe the economy needed a boost. While these points may be true, the BoC held its overnight lending
rate at 0.5 per cent, and this is generally good news. And there are no guarantees, but it’s unlikely there will even be a hike during the next announcement on Oct. 21. Homebuyers and owners, however, should take caution, and not confuse cheap money with free money. Interest rates will eventually rise, so make sure you’re not getting yourself in over your head.

IN ALL OF SOUTHWESTERN ONTARIO,
there are few places that offer the perfect blend of lifestyle and value as Woodstock. Located on the majestic Thames River, Woodstock is known as “The Friendly City.” From the many striking Victorianera buildings of the city’s historic downtown to the pastoral beauty of the Thames, its no wonder that more and more families are choosing to call Woodstock home. Located on the Thames River just moments from the heart of Woodstock, Senator Homes’ Havelock Corners community is the perfect place to take advantage of all that this very special city has to offer. And with home prices up to $100,000 less than nearby Kitchener-Waterloo,
and incredible access to major retailers and other popular area amenities just a short walk or drive away, Woodstock is without a doubt the best choice for families in the region. Situated next to the breathtaking natural beauty of Woodstock’s Pittock Conservation Area, Havelock Corners is a community rich in character and distinctive in charm. This grand vision master-planned community comprises more than 1,000 family homes sculpted with classic architecture, imbued with timeless family values and a warm friendly ambiance. Havelock Corners offers Woodstock’s most impressive selection of homes, ranging from bungalow freehold townhouses to
“This grand vision master-planned community comprises more than 1,000 family homes sculpted with classic architecture, imbued with timeless family values and a warm friendly ambience.” fully detached homes on 36-, 42and 50-ft. lots. With the sell-out success of Phase 1, a brand new release of Court and Riverside lots are scheduled to be released in October as part of Phase 2 of this masterplanned community. With a perfect location just 30 minutes from Kitchener-Waterloo, Havelock Corners offers an array of amenities that your family is sure to love. In addition to the numerous shops and restaurants in Woodstock’s downtown, there are also major retailers such as Canadian Tire, Walmart, Sport Chek and more, all just minutes away. There are a
number of exceptional Catholic and public elementary and secondary schools in the area, and Fanshawe College’s Woodstock Campus offers a variety of wonderful programs for those headed into postsecondary education. Employment opportunities also abound with a state of the art Hospital, a Toyota Plant and many other large businesses and institutions in the surrounding area. Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of Havelock Corners is its incredible proximity to the Pittock Conservation Area. This breathtaking natural area offers
Havelock Corners residents the rare opportunity to have 2,000 acres of peaceful wilderness right in their own backyards – with sailing, canoeing, fishing, hiking, playgrounds and more. For the past 30 years, Senator Homes has been proud to offer some of the finest new home communities in Southernwestern Ontario’s most desirable locations.

Advice | EXPERT ADVICE
School is back in session, and homebuying is ramping up for fall By Karen Kessel SCHOOL IS BACK IN SESSION and that means routine has returned. If a new home is on the horizon for you, the kids aren’t the only ones with homework to do. Home builders know that people seeking new homes this fall are eager to view new projects and releases, and unveil their plans for home sites and phases of development for the coming months. These announcements often offer special pricing and incentives to encourage prompt decision-making so construction can begin before the snow flies. Be ready when they roll out these specials by obtaining mortgage preapproval. By knowing what you can afford, the house hunting is much easier. Homebuyers looking to make a move often want to do so before Thanksgiving, Christmas or the new year. Others are looking at the

end of the school year. With such deadlines in mind, it’s essential to do your research. Key decisions such as location and housing type need to be addressed first. Lifestyle and amenities, schools, medical services and transportation access are the important factors when choosing a community. If you have a young family, you may want to be near parks and recreation centres. If you’re empty-nesters, perhaps an adult lifestyle community is more in line with your needs. How much time do you want to spend on maintenance? If you don’t, a condo might be the answer. Find out what is being built and where and determine if it’s a good fit for you and your family. Other things to
research include your builder and their reputation for meeting deadlines and customer satisfaction. If it’s a condominium project, find out the status of sales and construction. A delay in construction can create a domino affect when you need to sell your own home or give notice to a landlord. At this time of year, there are plenty of builder incentives to encourage buyers to commit. You’d be surprised at what might be included. Be aware of the standard features so you can compare apples to apples. Some builders might offer enhanced standards that are reflected in a higher price point. If you learn about standard features, you’ll recognize a great incentive and price when you see it. By doing your homework now, you’ll be ready to take advantage of the housing opportunities awaiting you this fall.

Property Profile | REID’S HERITAGE HOMES
Reid’s Net Zero home demonstrates off the grid living in Westminster Woods LIVING OFF THE GRID IS A REALITY FOR
homebuyers in the Guelph area now that Reid’s Heritage Homes has unveiled its first of five Net Zero energy homes to be built in the builder’s flagship community of Westminster Woods. The public grand opening on Saturday, Sept. 19 had more than 400 people in attendance, lined up to get a tour of the Net Zero Discovery Home. This inaugural 2,043-sq.-ft. home will be used as a showhome for the remaining four Net Zero Energy homes to be built by Reid’s Heritage Homes. The second home is already for sale at a price of $523,525 for a two-storey 1,775 sq. ft. of living area with three bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The remaining three homes will be completed by spring of 2016. The house is the first completed as part of a national demonstration project to prove that Net Zero homes can be built on a communitylevel scale. The goal is to make Net Zero Energy homes – which can produce as much energy as they consume on an annual basis – fully accessible and affordable to all Canadians. Unlike other custom Net Zero homes that have been built across Canada in previous years, this project will utilize existing technology and products that are readily available to the average builder. “Instead of building these homes as one-off, custom-built projects, this project is geared to the mainstream public, and the lowrise production builder,” says Blake Seeberger, senior vice-president of residential, Reid’s Heritage Homes. “In fact, standing on the driveway facing the house, there is little indication that this is a real-world example of the future of housing.” The living area offers the high level of stylish finishes and design found in all Reid’s Heritage

homes. An obvious difference is in the tablet technology where the home’s systems are managed, and in the basement with its space age appearance of systems and conduits. On the back roof, 33 solar photovoltaic (PV) panels from Bluewater Energy are an obvious sign of the innovative technology being implemented. The PV panels will produce the energy required to offset the energy demands of the home, netting out on an annual basis.
Seeberger pointed out that as they were preparing for the industry grand opening, the central air was on, doors and windows were open as people were walking in and out – and still readings showed that the house was producing more energy than it was consuming. It is the underlying technologies that make this home innovative and affordable. The Owens Corning CodeBord Air Barrier System creates an advanced envelope system significantly reducing air leakage
in the home. Triple pane windows, by JELD-WEN Windows, enhance comfort and insulation while reducing noise. The home incorporates the latest air source heat pump space heating technology from Mitsubishi Electric and a leading-edge hybrid air source heat pump hot water tank from Rheem Canada.

Property Profile | MATTAMY HOMES
Naturally beautiful Cranberry Hill invites you to call Waterdown home SOME TIME AGO, MATTAMY
discovered the appeal of Cranberry Hill and has recently returned to provide an evolution of its familyfriendly offerings. Waterdown is an ideal focal point for all the Golden Horseshoe has to offer. It’s strategically connected to all the region’s highways – Hwys. 403, 6, 407 and 401 – so yes, you can get there from here. And there and anywhere. Near enough to the city of Toronto, Waterdown still offers the unspoiled charms natural living. Mattamy is well known for creating wonderfully master-planned communities, and Cranberry Hill is no exception. Inspired by, and respecting the local landscape, features such as greenspaces, parks, playgrounds, 32 YPNEXTHOME.CA
plus walking and bicycling trails complement the neighbourhood. A small-town charm is evident and manifested through friendly features such as generous front porches that harken back to an era when neighbours and passers-by would wave and catch up on local happenings. Mattamy’s specialized architectural approach puts people ahead of cars as you’ll see when you notice the homes’ discreet, recessed garages. You’ll probably notice gentle curves in the streets, there to reduce the speed of traffic and, of course, the network of paths give residents real options to driving. The streetscapes in Mattamy communities are also universally recognized as fresh and visually stimulating. That’s largely a design consideration that encourages a homeowner to personalize the home, both in decor and even, with the unique ability to choose from Architect’s Choice Options, to alter plans so that personal preferences in living style can also be accommodated. In Cranberry Hill, you will discover an inspiring mix of inspired detached homes that all offer a contemporary urban flavour. Though you may choose to live just outside the city, it seems you needn’t sacrifice any of the creature comforts a modern home can provide. Reassuringly, Mattamy has not forgotten natural appeal

Silvergate Homes introduces a Taste of Niagara with its grand opening of Victoria Woods
SILVERGATE HOMES HAS CREATED a Taste of Niagara for all to enjoy within its new collection of luxury townhomes in Niagara Falls. Far away from the hub of tourism but close enough to all amenities and recreational opportunities, Victoria Woods offers a lifestyle of luxury and leisure within moments of the roar of the mighty Niagara.
38 YPNEXTHOME.CA
Experience all aspects of Victoria Woods at its grand opening Oct. 3 when a fabulous model home of the 1,380-sq.-ft., threebedroom Sycamore will be revealed. Silvergate introduces a Taste of Niagara with assorted lifestyle prizes and giveaways to those who reserve in advance to attend the opening. Prizes will include golf packages, winery tours and dining packages so future residents of Victoria Woods can indulge in the lifestyle that awaits. At the opening, homebuyers will be offered VIP lot selection, VIP pricing and VIP bonus offers. Gourmet fare and live musical entertainment will provide the atmosphere for this VIP experience. Visitors can enjoy the splendor of the model home, a bungalow with all the comforts and conveniences of a low-maintenance lifestyle where greenspace embraces two sides of this community of 29 townhomes. Each block of homes will bear its own signature of originality with facades of varying exteriors and finishes, a distinctive hallmark of a Silvergate community. Shrubbery, trees, landscaping, plus an irrigation system, will complement the driveways and walkways of interlocking stone. An exceptional feature is that many of the homes enjoy walkouts to the natural surroundings while a 20-by-10-ft. covered deck will present three seasons of outdoor living under a beamed ceiling. Inside the model, visitors will discover such luxury standards as a family-sized breakfast bar, pantry, main floor laundry, four-piece ensuite with glass shower, his and hers closets, central air and a two-car garage, essential for the family or power couple on the move. Main floors will feature ceiling heights of nine ft. while basement windows will be extra-large to embrace natural light. You’ll find ceramics underfoot at the entrance, kitchen and bathrooms. Great Rooms will feature hardwood flooring. As the Niagara region’s premier Green home builder, all Victoria Woods homes are Energy Star certified. Silvergate received the Niagara

GRIMSBY CONTINUES TO strengthen
its position on the real estate map as one of the hottest areas to live west of the GTA. Witness Branthaven’s latest launch and success story at Lake House on Grimsby’s waterfront. “We were thrilled with our preview event,” says Steve Stipsits, president of Branthaven Homes. “The positive response and the outstanding number of sales reinforced just how special this community is. Of course, we had our loyal followers and locals purchase at the event, but this community is so dynamic that we also had real estate brokers bringing in first-time buyers, empty nesters and investors from the Golden Horseshoe and Toronto.” Why the big draw? Lake House is a rare find. A masterfully planned
community of luxury, resort-style townhomes and two boutique condos right at the water’s edge. “There is no other development in the region of this size – 17.5 acres – or one that provides the opportunity for truly affordable lakefront home ownership,” adds Stipsits. “The towns are large and luxurious. The condos are chic and contemporary. The community is rich with natural amenities like parks, promenades, and waterfront access – the community was beyond everyone’s expectations.” Lake House’s two midrise condominium residences appealed to buyers looking for carefree condo living. For young professionals the lure of an “all-inclusive” attainable lifestyle with club-style amenities
“The condos are chic and contemporary. The community is rich with natural amenities like parks, promenades and waterfront access – the community was beyond everyone’s expectations.”
and a waterfront playground was undeniable! For empty nesters, Condo ownership provides peace-of-mind and a “lock and leave” lifestyle. “They can live a worry-free, high quality lifestyle year-round,” says Stipsits. Lake House Condos offer an abundance of amenity spaces designed to improve quality of life and extend living spaces beyond each suite and private terrace. Notables include an elegant entrance/lobby, a
lounge with billiard area, media and seating, a catering kitchen, private dining room and a fitness centre and yoga studio. All common area interior finishes are designed by renowned Interior Design Studio IIBYIV. Condo residents and their guests will be treated to seasonal amenities with a shared outdoor pool, terraces, cabanas and barbecue area. There’s even a pet spa in each building!
Visitors touring the Gulf Shore model suite were transported to an oasis of calm. Taking inspiration from their extensive work in international locales, high-end resorts, hotels and spas, IIBYIV have infused the 685-sq.ft. one-bedroom plus den plan and its sweeping 185-sq.-ft. patio with a classic and contemporary palette wrapped by lake views. The Gulf Shore suite is a showcase of Branthaven signature style and unrivaled built-in value. Branthaven’s proprietary Fresh Thinking features are all on display. Kitchens are loaded with smart extras, including a tall pantry, ample storage with practical features, such as customizable peg organizer and cutlery drawers. Enjoy under-cabinet iPad mounts and sleek countertops. Bathrooms have been treated with spa-style trimmings, the latest floating vanities with pull out drawers, a semiframeless glass shower or modern square edge tubs, stacked ceramic tiles and designer fixtures. With nine-ft. ceilings standard and floorto-ceiling windows, large sliding glass doors and glass balconies, every plan is bright, open and has a transitional feel to the great outdoors.

Nautique by Adi Developments paints a new skyline on Burlington’s vibrant waterfront SIGNALING AN URBAN SHIFT FOR
Burlington’s downtown core, Adi Development Group introduces Nautique: an architecturally striking one-of-a-kind residential tower on the Lake Ontario waterfront. Located along coveted Lakeshore Boulevard, this masterfully designed tower will define an iconic new gateway to Burlington’s historic core. Conceived by Adi and awardwinning RAW Design with interiors by Cecconi Simone, Nautique’s contemporary aesthetic makes a bold design statement that sets it apart from anything in the city before it. “Burlington has one of the most beautiful downtowns across the GTA. There’s never been a better time to introduce a landmark like Nautique to this luxurious location,” says Tariq Adi, CEO of Adi Development Group. “Nautique is an icon, a symbol for change. It’s a landmark that will impact the way that people think about this city.” Building on a legacy of cutting-edge contemporary condominium projects including LINK Condos + Lofts, now under construction, and the recently completed Mod’rn Condominiums, Adi Development Group’s step into high-rise development will ignite a design renaissance in the city’s downtown core. Reflective of its shoreline setting, Nautique’s façade is light and fluid making use of translucent glass to boldly reflect blue hues of the sky and the adjacent Lake Ontario in an intriguing rectangular grid. Responding to a need for density in a region earmarked for intensification, the tower will introduce 170 new units to a formerly vacant site in the core.
48 YPNEXTHOME.CA
At street level, a five-storey podium will seamlessly introduce a new mix of an expansive double height retail component to reinvigorate Lakeshore’s pedestrian boulevard. Nautique will introduce a new price point to the city’s previously unattainable waterfront, with exclusive lakefront residences starting from the high $200,000s. In addition to the surrounding amenity mix, Nautique offers an unparalleled lifestyle experience for purchasers; the highlights start with Nautique’s Sky Lounge, offering the city’s highest and newest vantage point to take in 360-degree views of Lake Ontario’s sweeping shoreline and city lights. Residents can host cocktail hour at the sleek bar, unwind in the fireside lounge, or sip a glass of wine while enjoying a book in the library. “As soon as you step inside of Nautique, you can tell that something different is happening here,” says Saud Adi, COO of Adi Development Group. “We wanted to deliver a new type of home for the designconscious buyer, offering the best amenities, the best views, and the best location in the city. The feedback for this project has been astonishing.” Inside the suite, fluid layouts prioritize views of the lake through floor-to-ceiling windows. In-suite terraces invite private outdoor escapes from the city. Custom kitchens are set around stylish islands that double as both workspace and hubs for entertaining, appointed with exceptional quality designer cabinetry.
“We’re excited not only to bring Nautique to market, but to spearhead a project that will be a catalyst for Burlington, a city we live in, love, and are committed to its prosperous future,” says Tariq Adi. Located at the corner of Martha and Lakeshore, Nautique is a residential tower that will consist of 170 units, ranging from 452 to 1,316 sq. ft. with layouts ranging from one-bedroom to two-bedrooms plus den. Prices start in the high $200,000s. Opening fall 2015, the Adi Home Store will be located at 375 Brant St., Burlington. To register visit adidevelopments.com

City Focus | NIAGARA-ON-THE LAKE
NIAGARA-ON-THE LAKE An economic force under a shield of beauty and history CANADA’S OLDEST SMALL TOWN
and once named Prettiest Town in Canada, Niagara-on-the-Lake is an economic force in Niagara with not one but four major economic engines. And it’s the only town in Canada with a lord mayor to head its town council. Located at the mouth of the Niagara River at Lake Ontario in view of the Toronto skyline, Niagaraon-the-Lake looks across to Fort Niagara where battles were waged in centuries past. As the former capital of Upper Canada, Niagara-on-theLake (Newark) was located in a very precarious position, susceptible to attacks and a major player in the War of 1812. Now this location is ideal for visitors and residents, putting it within 90 minutes by car from Toronto, and less than 30 minutes to Buffalo. For a town of its size and population (about 16,000), Niagaraon-the-Lake has an economy that is 50 YPNEXTHOME.CA
the envy of major cities throughout the province, and undoubtedly the country. With a base of tourism, theatre, farming and the wine industry, Niagara-on-the-Lake has a bustling economy that rivals those of surrounding cities. The town is a day-tripper’s dream with a main street of shops and dining establishments, hotels and B&Bs and the Queen’s Landing Inn and Convention Centre. The Pillar & Post and Prince of Wales Hotel, which predates Confederation, are stately establishments that have been strongholds in the town for more than a century. When a Christmas Eve fire destroyed the Oban Inn in 1992, it was rebuilt, true to its 1824 heritage design but with the technology of today. The Shaw Festival, Canada and North America’s second largest repertory theatre company, was one of the major players that led to the
changing face of NOTL from a sleepy, riverside town to a major player in the world of professional theatre, tourism and economics. Shaw draws millions of visitors and generates more than $100 million annually for the local economy. Beyond theatre and tourism, the orchards and vineyards that surround the town proper contribute to the town’s tender fruit industry. More than 90 per cent of Ontario’s tender fruit crop (peaches, pears, plums, prunes, sweet and sour cherries, strawberries, and raspberries) comes from the Niagara Peninsula and the majority of these fruits are grown in orchards found in Niagara-on-theLake. The area accounts for 95 per cent of Ontario’s peach crop and 81 per cent of the entire country’s peach harvest. Roadside stands, operated by the farmers that grow the fruit, can be found throughout the area offering visitors an opportunity to buy
Neighbourhood Profile
Downtown Niagara-on-the-Lake Leisurely lakeside strolls, nights at the theatre and wine tasting are all a big part of the lifestyle here. While it can be especially buzzing with excitement during the summer months, the heritage district is busy year-round, simply due to its proximity to the Falls. Even with the tourist presence, you still get a sense of a vibrant local scene. The Vibe You can’t get any closer to the U.S. and still live in Canada, but residents here take particular pride in their history of fending off advances from their neighbours. For more than 200 years, Niagara-on-the-Lake has held the fort – literally, that’s Fort George – on the Canadian side of the Niagara River. The town is steeped in history, teeming with “so-and-so slept here” plaques. Owners have lovingly maintained these homes so well that it’s no surprise that even the brand-new subdivisions are using their designs as templates.

fruit fresh off the vine from the first strawberry pickings in the spring to the harvest of root vegetables in the fall. With its moderate climate, it was a natural step to grape growing and now vineyards and wineries have established this area as the birthplace of Ontario’s modern wine industry. Today, there are as many as 40 wineries surrounding the town. This growth led to the creation of Niagara College’s Winery and Viticulture Technician program, and then the Wine Business Program, both the first of their kind in Canada at a teaching winery, as well as a Certified Sommelier Program. For a town its size and population, amenities are abundant. With its popularity among retirement-aged residents, those over 65 years of age number constitute the fastgrowing population resulting in the town’s growth of almost one per
cent annually. The town boasts its own yacht club as well as the oldest golf club in Canada enjoying a scenic location along the shore of Lake Ontario. Leading out from the town into Niagara Falls is the Niagara Parkway, a scenic drive lined by biking and walking paths. The rural pleasures of Niagara-on-the-Lake with its farming history blend seamlessly with world-class theatre and delightful fine dining experiences. Once a town under siege, today you can relax in charming B&Bs, refresh with indulgent spa experiences, and delight in locally grown food paired with award-winning Niagara wines. From antique shopping to challenging golf to internationally celebrated theatre, it offers boundless charm to residents and visitors alike.
Meet the Neighbours Popular with retirees, Niagara-on-theLake is home to fewer than the average number of households including children – but this is changing as the town expands along Hwy. 55 in particular. Young professionals and families are drawn to the new houses and townhomes that, while upscale for this region, are still relative bargains compared to GTA prices. Planes, Trains & Automobiles Within the heritage core, it’s really easy – and delightful – to make your way on foot. The sidewalks and roads are regularly plowed and in excellent repair year-round. While cyclists will find it a dream to get around when the weather permits, it’s really no place for the carless. There’s only minimal public transit, mainly linking the town to St. Catharines and other commuter destinations. Real Estate While it’s definitely the most upscale neighbourhood in the region, Niagaraon-the-Lake is still relatively reasonable when you look at what $500,000 can buy. These are beautiful homes, new and old, and while settling here is a good investment, the accompanying lifestyle can get expensive if you’re a wine connoisseur.

How to find a home?
Pay attention to location, information and timing By Wayne Karl
DESPITE WHAT YOU OFTEN HEAR,
buying a home isn’t only about location, location, location. True, this is the time-tested first rule of real estate, but there are other determining factors you should consider as part of your selection process. Indeed, there’s a new rule of thumb for buying real estate. Location First, what does that old adage really mean? Of course, we’d all love a high-end home in the best neighbourhood. But that’s not always possible. For your own enjoyment while you live in your home as well as for future resale potential, proximity to transportation, shopping, schools and other amenities is among the key determinants that affect your property’s appeal and ultimately its value. After all, those are the qualities potential buyers look for when searching for a home; the more of them your home has when you go to sell, the more desirable it will be to a greater number of people. This equates to demand – multiple offers and a higher price. Information Whether you’re a first-time homeowner, “buying up” to accommodate a growing family or “right-sizing” as an empty nester, education is critical. And these days, with digital media and mobile technology, all the information you need is at your fingertips. From the content in this issue, at ypnexthome.ca to the resources

available to you at Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. (CMHC), to the local market expertise of new-home sales staff and realtors, the more knowledge you have, the better equipped you are to make informed decisions about buying, maintaining and eventually selling your home. Timing Though your home is your primary residence, it is also an investment. Where you buy is usually determined largely by where you want to live, work and play. But when you buy and sell is also important. Like any financial instrument, real estate can fluctuate in value and your
timing can determine how good of an investment it is. Given today’s challenging economic climate, there’s no shortage of media reports on the ups, downs, crashes and surges of the housing market. But if you’ve done your research, you won’t be spooked – or excited – by big-picture reports on short-term market performance. You know that real estate is not national or even regional – it’s very specific. You don’t buy the Canadian market and you don’t buy a provincial or even regional market. You buy a specific home, on a specific street in a specific neighbourhood. So, it’s not just about “location, location, location.” The new adage is “location, information and timing.” Do well with all three, and over the long haul your home is going to be one of the best lifestyle and investment decisions you ever made.

Empire Communities wins Canadian HR Award EMPIRE COMMUNITIES, ONE OF
Canada’s largest integrated masterplanned community home builders in Ontario, has won a Canadian HR Award for Best HR Strategic Plan. The company was also nominated for Canadian HR Team of the Year (Fewer than 500 Employees). The nominations mark the first time that a residential builder has been nominated in these categories. The Canadian HR Team of the Year (Fewer than 500 Employees) award recognizes a team that has excelled within the HR function and across their business as a whole by partnering with different business functions. The award for Best HR Strategic Plan recognizes the HR team that has driven and implemented the most innovative and successful strategic plan, whether it’s a single, one-off project strategy or a long-term, ongoing HR strategy. “This is the first time that we have entered into the Canadian HR Awards and are honored to be nominated under not one but two categories, including Canadian HR Team of the Year (Fewer than 500
Employees),” says Eleanor Townsend, director, human resources at Empire Communities. “This speaks volumes to the commitment we have to our employees that we put into action to ensure they are engaged and happy to come to work every day.” Empire Communities entered the Canadian HR Awards this year as a result of last year’s efforts and initiatives that were launched and the positive impact that they’ve had on the 350 employees and the company as a whole. The EmpireWay Learning & Development Program was initiated to address individual barriers or performance gaps and provide leadership and management training. Within this program, health and wellness initiatives were introduced that included lunch and learn sessions, physical exercise challenges and reduced gym memberships.
“One of the programs that we’re most proud of is the Employee Engagement survey, which was introduced to obtain a pulse on our employees’ point of view of the organization and to understand their goals and challenges. Working together, we can all achieve success,” says Townsend. The Empire Communities HR department leveraged EmpireNet, adding a Human Resource Section to the dormant Intranet Site with real-time information to keep employees engaged in workplace initiatives and activities. Information shared on EmpireNet includes career opportunities, new hires and internal promotions, wellness initiatives, internal training opportunities, loyalty program additions and company celebrations. Prior to launching EmpireNet, the company had no employee communication platform.
