EdiTor’s noTE

living small is the next big thing The real estate world and its industry experts have been bantering about new catch phrases lately – downsizing, right-sizing, smaller environmental footprint. For those not familiar with these terms, it refers to a modern way of living, where the new big thing, it seems, is really about being small, or rather, living in smaller spaces.

Many of us dream of owning large homes with spacious front and back yards, and that’s okay. But for various reasons, a growing number of people desire less square footage in which to live, heat, clean and maintain.

Admittedly, living in a smaller space may require some getting used to, from finding creative storage solutions to sourcing furniture that fits. Decluttering and eliminating articles in a big home that won’t fit into a smaller one can be challenging. But as Bob DeWitt writes in this issue of NextHome (pg. 36), builders and designers are now becoming creative in designing new homes with unique solutions to make small feel just a little bit bigger.

If a smaller living space matches your lifestyle, now is a great time to find a home that’s the right size for you.

Refined West Side Living Located in the heart of Vancouver’s prestigious Cambie Corridor neighbourhood, this intimate collection of refined, condominium residences offers a bold take on West Coast Modern architecture.

Thoughtfully crafted with contemporary lifestyles in mind, homes at Winona range from studios to spacious, family-friendly three-bedroom suites – each one elegantly balancing park-side tranquility with the vitality of the city’s dynamic, urban culture.

“The geometric building form was sculpted in response to its contextual surroundings with each façade individually tailored to maximize opportunities for views, privacy and regulation of natural light,” says Andrew Emmerson of GBL Architects.

Gourmet kitchens feature twotone cabinetry, polished quartz countertops and island with elegant waterfall edge. Appliances are chosen to inspire – Sub-Zero integrated refrigerator with two freezer drawers, Wolf gas cooktop and convection wall-oven, and built-in microwave.

Here you’ll find private rooftop decks boasting stunning views of Vancouver’s skyline and greenspaces, a state-of-the-

art outdoor kitchen with fridge, built-in stainless steel cabinetry plus built-in barbecue with infrared bottom and rear burners, integrated wood-chip smoker tray, searing plates and warming rack. Ideal for solitary relaxation or socializing with friends, this is sure to become a favourite place to enjoy the best of Vancouver’s temperate climate. urban pLayground

Winona will be situated on Cambie Street at West 61st Avenue, meaning you’ll have a diverse array of amenities, urban conveniences and greenspaces right outside your front door.

Just minutes away is Marine Gateway that offers an expanding selection of shops and services including T&T Supermarket and Cineplex Cinemas. Or check out the upscale shopping experiences found at Oakridge Centre just a few minutes’ drive or SkyTrain ride away.

When it’s time for outdoor enjoyment, a picnic at Winona Park might be just the thing. Spend a leisurely afternoon exploring Queen Elizabeth Park with its world-renowned quarry garden, arboretum, and 360-degree views.

Or enjoy a round of golf at one of the many greens located within a 15-minute drive.

The Winona presentation centre opens this October. For more information and priority registration, visit WinonaOnCambie.com or contact info@winonaoncambie.com or 604.364.2688.

NEIGHBOURHOOD PROFILE

south cambie a small neighbourhood with panache by michelle hopkins

South Cambie’s borders include Elizabeth Park to the east and the tonier Shaughnessy on the west. It is located between the busy north-south corridors of Oak and Cambie. tHE vIBE

South Cambie might be one of the smallest of Vancouver’s neighbourhoods but it’s got panache! Since the Canada Line went in, this former sleepy enclave burst onto the scene as a cultural melting pot waiting to be discovered! It’s saturated with a variety of upscale, bohemian and chic boutiques, bakeries, bars and restaurants.

18 NextHome.ca

tHE vIBE

Favourite hangouts run the gamut, whether it’s enjoying nature’s best, a fashionista’s dream or anything in between, South Cambie is emerging proud and strong. In the southernmost part you have a beautiful boulevard with oversized trees known as Cambie Heritage Boulevard and Queen Elizabeth Park up on Little Mountain. There’s also an antidote for serious shopoholics - Oakridge Shopping Centre or funky boutique shops along the Canada Line.

IN tHE aREa

Besides its crown jewels, Queen Elizabeth Park and Nat Bailey,

South Cambie is renowned for its top notch hospitals, great educational institutions, the posh Oakridge Shopping Centre, and let’s not forget great ethnic eateries, funky watering holes and distinctive boutique shops. mEEt tHE NEIGHBOURs

With the high cost of housing and dwindling supply, a growing and aging population and an exodus of youth who can’t afford to live in the city, South Cambie residents are now affluent upperwardly mobile young professionals and families, as well as empty nesters with deep pockets.

hot spots

walrus this funky, contemporary lifestyle boutique is where you’ll find anything from incense sticks to crosscut serving boards and everything in between.

tHE GOOD, tHE BaD & tHE REst

With all the changes in this corridor, the “bad” is the cost of housing. An older, tear-down will put you back $1.5 million and a new home will cost upwards of $2 million. The upside is that the city has rezoned parts of South Cambie allowing for high-density development. More than 1,000 units are in the works up and down Cambie from 16th to 41st avenues along the Canada Line.

transformed the neighbourhood and has gotten residents out of their cars, while making it easy to get to YVR. Cyclists rule in Vancouver and the city has made it a priority to create many dedicated bike lanes.

DOLLaRs & sENsE

Increased density and transit access contributed to a shift in house prices – with homes tripling in price. Getting into this neighbourhood is not cheap but with the new condo projects, it will make living here slightly more affordable!

ADVICE | MAKE YOUR MOVE

WhAT else CAn YOUR mOVEr

DO FOR YOU? ChUCk ResniCk

There are many benefits to hiring a professional mover, including having your possessions handled with care and safety.

A professional moving company can make your relocation less stressful and ensure it’s handled with care. People naturally think of a mover for the transportation of their items from one home, apartment, condo or business to another, in the same town, city or province. But many professional moving companies offer different services.

For example, some moving companies provide internal moving services. Let’s say you’re working on home improvements like laying hardwood flooring or full-room renovations. Some professional movers have trained staff who can come and assist you in relocating your large furnishings to other areas within your home while the work is going on, and then move everything back when the renovation is complete.

Pianos, pool tables, dining room sets, hutches, beds, dressers … moving professionals can take the heavy lifting off your shoulders.

If you are in an office setting that is undergoing renovations, moving filing cabinets, desks and credenzas can be a headache.

Again, leave it to those who do moving for a living to achieve a smooth transition.

20 NextHome.ca

Some moving companies also offer on-site storage for your furnishings. It’s best to ask what services are available. Think of it as a menu of choice; you can pick and choose from the buffet table of services and items available to you for your move.

Do some research and ask questions about what might serve your individual needs. From a variety of boxes that are sturdy and stack well, to packing supplies such as tape, paper, markers, bubble wrap and the like, obtaining them from a professional mover ensures you are securing your possessions with quality. There are even special boxes designed specifically to protect pictures and mirrors and flat-panel televisions.

If you are planning to move your home or business, or simply need to move heavy, cumbersome

items around your home, keep in mind that professional help is out there. It’s up to you to do your homework and determine what you need and what is available.

When in doubt, ask. A reliable professional mover will welcome your questions and help you figure out your best plan of action.

It’s all about good, thoughtful service, from the smallest packing item to major moves.

SOUTHCREST Wait For it The current showhome may be closed, but excitement’s definitely building at SOUTHCREST in South Surrey. Brought to you by Miracon, winner of Single-Family Home Builder of the Year at both provincial and local levels, this community of single-family homes will open a brand new showhome on Oct. 20 and it’s going to be worth the wait.

Why Buyers Love These homes

EdgEwood EstatEs South Surrey elegance There’s no doubt about it: South Surrey is a neighbourhood like no other. And if you’re looking for a home like no other, you’ll want to check out Edgewood Estates.

A collection of 68 singlefamily residences, Edgewood Estates combines all the luxurious finishings, open floorplans and sophisticated style you’ve come to expect from Foxridge Homes.

28 NextHome.ca

SophiSticated LifeStyLe

Inside, these residences are designed with families in mind.

Kitchens are elegant and inviting – sure to become the social heart of the home. Walk-in pantries, over-height cabinetry in a contemporary Shaker style, quartz counters and ceramic tile backsplash all make a bold statement of good taste. Plus,

there’s an entertainment-sized island that’s perfect for casual dining or simply hanging out with friends – after all, every good party still typically ends up in the kitchen.

Upstairs, the master bedroom is a delightful, well-deserved retreat with vaulted ceiling, plenty of natural light, and an “oh wow” ensuite. Here are just a few hints:

Freestanding soaker tub, frameless glass shower, and the lavish look of marble-inspired tiling.

Then there are the thoughtful details. Throughout the main floor, ceilings are a graceful 10-ft. that in some homes soar to 20 in the living room, and wide-plank, engineered hardwood flooring creates a warm, natural look.

In summer, you can admire the sunsets from your front porch or back yard, while on cooler evenings, cozying up in front of the gas fireplace might be the perfect end to your day.

Best of all, you can customize everything from cabinets and faucets to lighting and mirror frames thanks to the famous Foxridge Design Centre. So your home is as unique as you are.

GReat neiGhbouRhood

When you’re ready to talk location, Edgewood Estates is, too.

Shopping and restaurants abound at Grandview Corner and Morgan Crossing. White Rock’s famous seaside promenade, and Crescent Beach are both within a short drive as are golf courses, parks and trails. Schools at all levels are nearby and the new Grandview Heights Elementary is on track to open in September 2020.

The Edgewood Estates presentation centre and display homes are open noon to 5 p.m. daily at 16798 Edgewood Drive in South Surrey. Prices for these five- and six-bedroom homes start at $1.4 million (GST included).

Be sure to ask about Edgewood Estates’ special fall promotion – a “move-in-ready” package valued at $17,000 that includes air conditioning, blinds, central vacuum system and washer/ dryer plus the cost of the property transfer tax is deducted from the price at time of sale.

BoB De Wit

Space in Vancouver is a highly coveted commodity. Our members at the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association are working on building and design solutions to support densification of our neighbourhoods, with smaller footprint homes.

Due to increasing land values and building costs, affordability is a key driver in building smaller homes. Builders and designers are having to think outside the typical ‘white picket fence.’ Although higher costs may be creating challenges, the silver lining is some very clever design/build solutions.

Project Mint Developments Ltd, and Nick Bray Architecture, Ovation Award winners of BC Housing’s 2018 Award for Excellence in Innovative Housing Choices for the project Anzio, know a thing or two about maximizing and designing smaller spaces.

Located in a well-established neighbourhood, the Anzio project, built on a standard city lot, replaced one older home with a four-plex design featuring a full-sized. two-level residence, two affordable apartment-sized suites on the lower level, plus a 915-sq.-ft. laneway home. The result? A design-friendly home with affordable housing choices, 36 NextHome.ca

quadrupling capacity in the existing neighbourhood. Wow! Whether you are planning to renovate, buy a condo, a townhouse, or build a new home, the following design/build solutions incorporated into the Anzio project can help you live large in smaller spaces: • RetRactable walls: Require limited space compared to the traditional hinged door. Anzio features a frosted-glass door, which separates the livingroom from the foyer/vestibule when needed.

• eliminate coRRidoRs:

Purposefully designed with no corridors, every square inch of Anzio becomes usable. This is a definite bonus to help facilitate traffic flow.

• coffeRed ceilings: Help to define a space while retaining the open, great-room layout to maximize sense of space.

• Play with height: Anzio features a sunken living-room that visually delineates the eating/cooking area from the lounging space, while retaining an open concept. The added bonus? A 10-ft. ceiling in the living room area.

• light as aRt Meticulously chosen lighting fixtures in Anzio cleverly transformed a necessity into an art form.

Talk with the builders and discover other great design/build solutions at the Ask-the-Experts GVHBA booth at the Vancouver Fall Home Show, Oct. 18-21.

Angled ceilings in Anzio, with floor-to-ceiling windows, visually creates a sense of expansive space in a standard-sized room.

Pre-register at gvhba.org/Askthe-Experts/ for a seminar, or complimentary consultation, and receive two free tickets to the show.

Bob de Wit is the CEO of the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association (GVHBA), representing the residential construction industry in the Greater Vancouver Area.

Bordeaux Live Life Large Brentwood: One of Burnaby’s favourite up-and-coming neighbourhoods and the neighbourhood brought to you by award-winning Solterra Developments.

The Space You DeServe

Meticulously crafted to resonate with sophisticated urbanites, Bordeaux still has a wide selection of two- and three-bedroom homes remaining – homes offering the space and elegance savvy downsizers insist on. With its open layouts, elevated interiors, oversized balconies and gorgeous views, these are residences that simply feel good.

“Many people who grew up and raised families in Brentwood want to stay here but haven’t been able to find a home with the space they need… until now,” says Laura Rizzo, vice-president of marketing.

“Bordeaux’s signature Private 44 NextHome.ca

Collection homes rising from the 17th floor as well as our remaining townhomes provide the space to live life on your own terms. Plus they include added luxuries and features that set them apart from the rest of the building.”

Amenities, too, are sure to impress – more than 19,000 sq. ft. in total. There’s a gym with an adjacent yoga studio, a business and study lounge, social lounge with kitchen plus a podium-level rooftop deck with children’s play area, outdoor kitchen, al fresco dining table and a selection of community garden plots, a feature Rizzo says has proven to be a huge hit at previous Solterra communities.

October is normally one of the busiest times in our real estate market as the summer break and back-to-school seasons come to an end. This year is no exception as more than 2,000 units are scheduled to launch in Greater Vancouver and the Fraser Valley.

Many developers are gearing up for this crucial time with an anticipated 17 projects launching.

Coming to market will be five towers, resulting in more than half of the projected units.

Interestingly, four of the five highrises are in New Westminster and Central Surrey, both markets that have seen low levels of newhome supply in the past two years.

The four multi-family developments are in the regions’ transit-oriented communities and they are already generating significant interest. The close proximity to rapid transit enhances the livability with the convenience of having nearby shops and services, amenities, parks and recreation, cafes and restaurants.

“New Westminster, which has seen only one concrete project launch since 2016, will have two towers open for sales this month,” explains Suzana Goncalves, MLA Canada’s chief advisory officer.

“New West city centre is now one of the more affordable transitoriented communities in the Lower Mainland.”

46 NextHome.ca

A new 32-storey tower in New Westminster will add 204 units to the current housing supply. Ovation by Domus Homes is located in the heart of the city’s transit-oriented community.

Access to transit can translate into monthly cost savings for residents. It can also reduce a family’s household car requirement to one instead of the standard two automobiles. The reliance on owning a vehicle can further be reduced by utilizing local car-share programs.

New reNtals iN east VaNcouVer oN the rise

As the NDP government looks to deliver on its promise to increase the rental stock by 14,000 homes in the next 10 years, there is an uptick in the number of rental projects in the development application process.

East Vancouver is one area that is experiencing a boost, with 29 applications in various stages that are set to bring 1,627 market rental units to the area. Another 752 homes are either in their marketing or construction phase.

With a vacancy rate below one per

cent, the scheduled 2,300 rental suites will bring some relief to the housing supply in this highly sought-after region.

The fall and winter of 2018 will see a competitive marketplace for pre-sales and rental housing.

Additional product provides options for home seekers, which means more choice, flexibility and time to make decisions and look for the best value.

dining room the art of creating a

Hosting a dinner party soon but feel like your dining space is lacking lustre? Designer Cynthia Soda inspires a dining area makeover in six steps.

50  NextHome.ca

Whatever your style preference, with a little bit of creativity you can create interest in your space, and your stylish dining room will become a gorgeous setting for many family gatherings for years to come.

WAll deTAIlS

Instead of just painting the walls, think about applying beautiful detailing as well. With this room, I applied thin flat rectangular burlap mouldings from Central Fairbank (centralfairbank.com), which allowed me to create whatever design I wanted on the walls. In this case, I used the bulkheads in the walls and ceilings to define the concentric rectangular designs. Each area was equally divided and evenly spaced out to add interest.

The rhythm and repetition of the rectangles creates an architectural feeling to the space, and cleverly draws the eye away from bulkheads, electrical outlets and switches on the walls.

PAINT ChOICe

I chose to paint all the walls, ceiling and baseboards white. This shade really highlights the architecture of the room and also keeps the wall detail subtle and not overwhelming for the area. lIghTINg

Lighting is a great way to introduce a different design style to a space. Case in point: This caged light fixture from Supreme Lighting (supremelighting.ca) plays on the grid theme but also adds an industrial element to the room.

ACCeNT COlOuR

I love this pop of green colour. The short back of the chairs keeps things casual and allows the vibrant colour to be an accent, too, and not take away from the rest of the elements in the room. Remember, it’s only an accent colour!

Rug

A great rug can really anchor a space and tie everything together. For this area, I chose a patterned black and white rug, which plays against the neutral theme of the room. It also ties in the dark millwork from the adjacent kitchen, grounding the space.

TAble

Choosing the right dining table is a matter of personal style and preference. A good thing to keep in mind when shopping for one is how many people will be seated around it regularly. And, don’t forget to measure your space before you buy! In this room, I chose a large wooden table with detailed legs, that comfortably seats six – it’s a great piece that brings a natural element to the room.

SELF-EMPLOYED? NEW RULES HELP PROSPECTIVE HOMEOWNERS Beginning this month, Canada’s self-employed may find it easier to secure a mortgage, thanks to changes from Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. (CMHC).

Self-employed Canadians make up about 15 per cent of Canada’s population. However, they may have difficulty qualifying for a mortgage as their incomes may vary or be less predictable.

In line with the National Housing Strategy’s mission to address the housing needs of all Canadians, the changes include: • Providing examples of factors that can be used to support the lender’s decision to lend to selfemployed borrowers who have been operating their business for less than 24 months, or in the same line of work for less than 24 months. These factors could include acquiring an established business, sufficient cash reserves, predictable earnings and previous training and education.

54 NextHome.ca

• Providing a broader range of documentation options to increase flexibility for satisfying income and employment requirements when qualifying self-employed borrowers to support an “add back” approach for grossing up income for sole proprietorship and partnerships. This documentation could include the Notice of Assessment (NOA) accompanied by the T1 General, the CRA Proof of Income Statement and the Statement of Business or Professional Activities (T2125).

“These policy changes respond to that reality by making it easier for self-employed borrowers to obtain CMHC mortgage loan insurance,” says Romy Bowers, chief commercial officer, CMHC.” These enhancements apply to both transactional and portfolio insurance. cmhc-schl.gc.ca

Designer Jo alcorn kicks up the drama factor in a small bathroom

HAve yOu eveR HeARd that you can’t use a dark colour in a small space? Well, I love breaking design rules. Current design trends are leaning toward dark wall colours, so I decided to test it out on a small bathroom. Case in point: I took on this once-blah bathroom and transformed it into a dramatic, functional space.

First things first: The wall colour. Yes, it is black.

I went with a matte finish for a bit of drama.

Black cabinets and walls are on the top-trends list this year, so I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. And now I get it – I love the bold and beautiful element it adds.

Next, I found this white gloss Canadianmade vanity from Cutler Kitchen and Bath (cutlerkitchenandbath.com), which offers tons of storage. I also love that the vanity floats, which exposes more of the floor — always a great trick for making a small space seem larger.

I love a good DIY project. I spray-painted the handle that came with the vanity to create a vintage brass finish that’s in keeping with the room’s colour scheme. If you can’t find the exact piece or finish, don’t be afraid to alter something to make it perfect for your design concept.

The crème-de-la-crème in this space is the Delta Vero champagne bronze-finish faucet (deltafaucet.ca) with the matching wall towel rack.

It truly is the jewellery of the bathroom, and it was the perfect starting point for introducing brass and gold as the accent colours in this small bathroom.

I tied in more of the brassy gold colour along the vanity wall with a pendant light, and vintage brass wall-art birds from Etsy (etsy.ca).

The round mirror added a different dimension and twist to the hard lines of the room. I always like to add round elements for character and interest, plus it softens the harshness.

Artwork is a great way to bring a boring space

to life and an ideal way to tie in your own interests and add a very personal element to a room. Here, I used a photograph of a swan, printed by Posterjack (posterjack.ca), to add uniqueness. This image also connected to the birds on the wall, bringing all the elements together for a cohesive design.

Changing out the curtain rod to a dark brass finish and adding a white shower curtain from Bed Bath and Beyond (bedbathandbeyond.ca) balanced off the white vanity and toilet on the opposite wall.

Overall, the contrast of white and black makes the room seem bigger and adds interest to this small room. Who knew such a boring space could be so dramatically changed by the use of colour? The bathroom’s footprint stayed the same; however, it looks entirely different and the best part is it didn’t break the bank!

Roundhouse Urban in natUre It’s official. Roundhouse in Aldergrove is a resounding success among a diverse array of savvy homebuyers.

“We sold 47 homes on opening weekend, and we have only two homes still available in our second phase,” says Lacey Forward, sales manager. “People love Gramercy’s attention to details like powder rooms on the main floor, kitchen pantries with loads of storage space, window seats, even the elegance of interior archways and columns – things you usually only find in a single-family home.”

Now here’s the best news.

Responding to this overwhelming demand, Gramercy is preparing to release the third phase of homes months earlier than planned. “Roundhouse is a fantastic opportunity to purchase a townhome located in an established, single-family 62 NextHome.ca

neighbourhood,” Forward says. “And the price point makes these homes a terrific opportunity for first-time buyers who want to take the first step onto the homeownership ladder as well as investors who can achieve the same rent as higher-priced properties in nearby neighbourhoods.”

Live WeLL

Inside you’ll find nine-foot ceilings, hardwood laminate flooring, plus gourmet kitchens with large islands for casual dining and entertaining, and it’s clear these are homes you can grow into rather than out of.

And here’s a cool bonus. Every garage includes an electric car charging station – good for you, good for the environment.

CLose to What Counts

Located within walking distance to Aldergrove’s distinctly funky, heritage downtown core, life at Roundhouse gives you easy access to a range of city-style amenities including Starbucks, Safeway and the just opened Aldergrove Community Arena that includes a water park, state-of-the-art gym, indoor/outdoor pool and ice rink.

The Roundhouse presentation centre and display homes are open 1-5 p.m. daily except Fridays at 27735 Roundhouse Drive in Aldergrove.

Prices for these two- three- and four-bedroom homes start in the high $400,000s. For more information, visit gramercy.ca/roundhouse or call 604.626.9919.

ADVICE | qUICK TIpS

“Fall” into your

organizing groove Hellen Buttigieg

Fall is the perfect time to declutter and get your home organized before the snow hits the ground.

WHAT’S IN YOUR FREEZER?

An organized freezer allows you to find and use what you have, preventing waste and saving you money. Freeze sauces, meats and berries in zipper freezer bags and use permanent marker to write the contents and date directly on the bags. Use sturdy, flat-bottomed freezer baskets to store the bags.

Organize by category (frozen vegetables in one basket, sauces in another). Place new foods at the back of the freezer and use the oldest food first.

SEASONAL CLOTHING

Store your seasonal clothing safely. Before storing them, ensure that they have been cleaned. Even if items appear clean after wearing, body oils can cause stains that set over a few months and may attract

moths. Never store clothing in plastic bags for extended periods; they trap moisture and encourage mildew. Use cotton garment bags instead. Avoid storing clothes in cardboard boxes as acids in the cardboard can cause fabrics to yellow and the glue between the layers can attract insects. Use lidded plastic storage containers instead. Always store the clothes in a cool, dry, dark and wellventilated area.

MAxIMIZE bATHROOM STORAGE SpACE

faster and easier to drop papers in the file that way. On the other hand, when you are looking for papers inside your files, you are more likely to need the most current ones, so you could access them faster if you filed them at the front. This just goes to show that organizing is not one size fits all; you need to find the systems that work best for you. Whether you decide to file “to the back” or “to the front,” the important thing is to choose one of the two methods and use it consistently.

1. Place items you use daily

WHAT TO DO WITH RECEIpTS

within easy reach, like on the countertop, in the top drawer or in a hanging organizer in the shower area.

2. Store items used once or twice a week in the next mostaccessible place, like the middle drawer or under the sink.

3. Stash items used only once or twice a month in the back of the cupboard or in labelled boxes.

Designate an easily accessible place to quick-drop your receipts as soon as you get in the door, so they don’t accumulate in piles throughout your home. This can be in a box, basket or bowl placed in a convenient spot.

Once a month, go through the container and a) discard any receipts you don’t need to keep (from the supermarket, variety store, etc.) and b) file the receipts you are required to keep for warranty or income tax purposes.

You can store the “keepers” in file folders or accordion files labelled by category or by date (check with your accountant/bookkeeper for their preference). Even if you don’t get to the filing every month, at least all your receipts will be in one place and you’ll know where to find them if you need them.

HOW DO YOU FILE YOUR pApERWORK?

Some experts suggest placing new paper behind previous ones (filing to the back) because it’s

ADVICE | MORTGAGE InTEl

overcoming mortgage affordability hurdles part II

jordan lavIn for ratehub.ca

Over the last several years, it’s become harder and harder to afford a mortgage in Canada.

Fortunately, it’s not an impossible task and there are ways to overcome some of the biggest hurdles to affording a mortgage.

You can find part one of this two-part series at nexthome.ca/ mortgage-hurdles MORTGAGE AffORDAbIlITy: puRChAsE pRICE

You can afford a home more easily by lowering your target purchase price. This may mean choosing a less desirable neighbourhood, adding some time to your commute, having fewer bedrooms, or living in a condo or townhouse instead of a detached home.

Your realtor can talk to you about your options and help you think of creative ways to find what you’re looking for at a price you can afford.

DOwn pAyMEnT

The more money you use for your down payment, the more affordable your mortgage will be.

A larger down payment can also help you avoid expensive mortgage default insurance. If your down payment is larger than 20 per cent, you don’t need default insurance. You may pay a slightly higher mortgage rate, 70 NextHome.ca

but the savings are worth it. On a $500,000 home, the difference between a five per cent and 20 per cent down payment is more than $400 per month.

MORTGAGE RATE

If you’re looking for ways to make a mortgage more affordable in the context of your budget, your mortgage rate can make a big difference. Take, for example, BMO’s advertised discount fiveyear fixed rate of 3.54 per cent. A $500,000 mortgage with that rate would cost $2,507 per month to repay. But the best mortgage rate in Canada according to Ratehub is currently 3.04 per cent, which equals a payment of $2,377. That’s a difference of $130 per month in payments, and $39,126 in interest over the life of the mortgage.

CREDIT sCORE

All of this depends on you having an acceptable credit score. For the most part, the rules discussed here are contingent on you having a credit score of 680 or higher.

If you’re not sure what your score is, you can check your credit for free online. If your credit is less than perfect, you can improve it by making all your payments on time and paying off your credit cards in full each month. Reducing your debt can also help you lower your debt service ratio and open up your mortgage affordability.

Affording a mortgage can feel like a challenge, but it’s well within your control. It helps to increase your income, save a bigger down payment, find a less expensive house, get a better mortgage rate and improve your credit.

Jordan grew up on the coast of British Columbia and moved to Toronto in 2004 to study radio and television at Ryerson University. Jordan developed a passion for personal finance while buying his first house, and his obsession with online mortgage calculators led him to Ratehub.ca.

Peregrine at tsawwassen shores

Oceanside Living

It’s official. Peregrine at Tsawwassen Shores is capturing hearts among homebuyers on the quest for a community with soul, a community where people know their neighbours and celebrate an active lifestyle… at every age.

Walking along the streets, there’s a relaxed, friendly vibe – kids playing together, neighbours out jogging or pausing for a chat, flowerbeds filled with colourful blossoms.

No wonder more than 300 people already call this 120-acre master-planned community home with more than 30 of Pergerine’s homes sold within a couple of weeks of being released.

amazing vaLue Peregrine is the final release of homes and only the second opportunity to purchase a condominium residence in this seaside neighbourhood. It’s also an incredible value.

“Because these homes are leasehold, you can save as much as 40 per cent over the cost of purchasing a similar home in Richmond – and yet you’re only 15 minutes away,” says

Kevin Hoffman, president of Aquilini Development.

“That leaves more room in a family’s budget for other important things in life.”

He adds that since leasehold properties have been shown to appreciate at the same rate as freehold, this is a very affordable, valuable homeownership opportunity. Better yet, prices currently include GST. Plus there’s the convenience of living in a wellestablished, well-connected neighbourhood. “There’s pedestrian access to both Tsawwassen Mills and Tsawwassen Commons for shopping, there are some great restaurants nearby, and you’ve got easy access to both the airport and the U.S. border,” says Hoffman.

“Buyers like that, and they like the feeling of being a little removed from the hustle and bustle.”

great styLe Peregrine homes also introduce a new, more contemporary design aesthetic to the neighbourhood.

Cabinetry blends sophisticated greys with an eyecatching textured finish. Kitchens have a sleek look that’s a result of integrated appliances – something Hoffman notes is rare in the Tsawwassen market. It all adds up to a stylish, modern home that’s different from what people have seen before.

Peregrine at Tsawwassen Shores offers 184 condominium residences all with parking. Onebedrooms priced from $364,900; two-bedrooms from $449,900 with GST included. Presentation centre and display home are open noon to 5 p.m. daily except Fridays at 4742 Blue Heron Way (last right before the BC Ferry terminal). For more information, visit tsawwassenshores.com or call 604.943.6677.

NOW SELLING A NEW COLLECTION OF MODERN OCEANSIDE HOMES

The final phase, Peregrine, brings fresh energy and elegant comfort to a wonderful neighbourhood.

It strikes the perfect balance between tranquil oceanside living and time-saving urban conveniences.

Featuring modern kitchens with integrated appliances, laminate floors throughout, over-height ceilings, and parking included, Peregrine offers value that is incomparable.
