Smaller households, smaller homes Canadian households are shrinking according to Statistics Canada data.

Seven decades ago, the average household consisted of 4.3 people; by 2011, the average size had dropped to 2.5 people per household, albeit, there’s plenty more of us to house.

While the majority of Canadian homes over the last century were built to support larger families comprised of two parents with children, nowadays one or two people make up the majority of households, which is why apartment and condominium living — in urban areas in particular — have become increasingly popular.

The impact of smaller families on the Canadian housing market has been significant, spurring a dramatic change in the types of homes and apartments being constructed.

The introduction of urban townhomes, bachelor apartments, studio lofts and condominiums of all shapes and sizes is effectively servicing smaller families and singles who need homes and nearby amenities. While larger homes are still a need for some, the next time you see another crane in the air keep this new demographic dynamic in mind.

Happy Holidays!

IT’S NO SECRET. I love surprises. So arriving at The

Hamptons in South Surrey immediately captures my attention. Located just two minutes from the shopping mecca of Grandview Heights — yes, I timed the drive on my way over — there’s an unanticipated sense of being surrounded by country. The air smells fresh, and today a light wind is whispering through the many stately, mature trees.

From the street, The Hamptons has an old world charm I find irresistible — brick accents, picket fences, and gabled rooflines. A teenager, balanced expertly on a skateboard, waves at young mom busy decorating her front porch for the holidays as he zips past. No question this is one very familyoriented community too.

Homes to Match Your Lifestyle Brought to you by Essence Properties and Legendary Developments, The Hamptons is comprised of two distinct home types — Essence, a collection of townhomes, and Elevate, 40 freehold duplexes that offer a cost-effective alternative to single-family residences.

16 YPNEXTHOME.CA

“Legendary Developments has a long history of excellence building homes throughout Surrey and Langley,” explains Seeta Dhaliwal, partner in Essence Properties. “So when we decided to create a new sister company, Essence Properties, it meant future homebuyers will get the benefit of all same expertise and knowledge, just with a focus on multi-family design.”

Clearly the Essence townhomes fit the bill. “You get all the sophisticated finishings today’s homeowners insist on — crown moulding, hardwood laminate flooring throughout the main living levels, stainless steel appliances, and finished basement,” Seeta says. “Plus you have access to the Beach House, our community amenity building that features an entertainment lounge, a screening room where you can watch the latest blockbuster with your friends, a fitness room and yoga studio to help you keep in

Building Better Homes Essence Properties will also continue the Legendary Developments mandate to continually search for ways to improve the homes they build. “We build every home as if we were going to live in it ourselves,” Seeta notes. “We look for ways to improve on the things past buyers tell us they love about their home and what we can do better in the next ones.”

The development team also came up with an innovative way to encourage kids of all ages who live at Essence to get outside and play. Space that could have been used for two additional units became, instead, a half basketball court — a great alternative to a pool that’s typically expensive to maintain and often doesn’t get used all that much. “Basketball, on the other hand, is a social sport as well that engages all generations and gets people interacting with their neighbours,” Seeta says adding it’s not uncommon for lifelong friendships to start with a spontaneous game of 21.

Experience For Yourself

shape, even a community garden.”

Across the street, the Elevate duplexes are wowing a diverse array of buyers from downsizers to upsizers taking the next step on the property ownership ladder. “People tell us they like knowing

they own the land and don’t have to deal with a strata council,” Seeta says. “And since there are windows on three sides, it feel extra light and bright — just like a single-family home but with out paying the high price.”

The Hampton’s presentation centre and display homes are open noon to 5 p.m. daily except Fridays at 23rd Avenue and 164th Street in sunny South Surrey.

Elevate’s remaining duplexes are priced from $779,800: remaining Essence townhomes from $448,800. For more information about The Hamptons, visit legendaryliving.ca or call 604.723.4497.

YOU FOUND THE HOME of your dreams, your offer was accepted and you just received the keys to your new home.

Congratulations, you are now officially a homeowner! So… what happens next?

To help you start your new life as a homeowner on the right foot, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) offers the following tips on how to protect your home and your investment in every season: » The most important thing you can do as a responsible homeowner is make your mortgage payments on time. Late payments may result in additional charges and can negatively affect your credit report. By failing to make your mortgage

payments it can lead to even more serious consequences such as foreclosure. » In order to ensure that you stay on time with your mortgage it is a good idea that you keep at least three months’ worth of mortgage payments in savings account for emergency situations. » If you are having trouble making your payments or know you will be late for an upcoming payment, talk to your Mortgage Expert or contact your lender directly. » To ensure your financial peace of mind, you should also prepare a detailed monthly budget and stick to it. If you haven’t already created a budget, use CMHC’s Household

Budget as a Homeowner worksheet, available at www.cmhc. ca/en/co/buho/hostst/wosh_012.cfm Besides your mortgage, property taxes and insurance, owning a home comes with many other ongoing costs. » These range from maintenance and repair costs to expenses such as landscaping fees, utilities and strata fees. Be sure you include all the costs of homeownership in your monthly budget. » Take a few minutes each month to review your budget, check your spending and see if you are meeting your financial goals. If you are having trouble sticking to your budget, talk to a Financial Advisor for help. » No matter how far you look ahead, unexpected costs can arise at any time. Try to set aside a percentage of your takehome pay in an emergency account to help you deal with any unexpected problems, major repairs, illness or job loss. » To keep your home safe and sound year round, prepare and follow a regular schedule of monthly maintenance and

repairs. Doing a few simple repairs each month can help put a stop to many of the most common and costly problems most homeowners encounter, before they can occur. » As a family, you should also get to know your home’s basic components and how to adjust or turn these systems off in case of an emergency. Create a fire evacuation plan, maintain your smoke alarm and carbon monoxide detectors and always keep a list of emergency numbers (such as 911, the poison prevention line, your doctor, neighbours and relatives) close to the phone.

To help you learn more about what to expect as a homeowner and all aspects of buying a home, CMHC’s Homebuying Step by Step: A Consumer Guide and Workbook (www.cmhc.ca/en/co/buho/hostst/index.cfm) will lead you through the home-buying process in five simple steps, from the moment you decide to buy a home of your own to the day the movers carry the first box through your new front door or talk to a Mortgage Expert for a copy.

market. As 2015 draws to a close, sales volume and prices are both up compared to 2014, bidding wars and launch day line-ups are reappearing with escalating frequency, and many developers are scrambling to keep up with demand.

“By the end of the year, overall sales will likely be more than 15,000 and could very well exceed 16,000 — which will be a new benchmark,” says Scott Brown, president of Fifth Avenue Real Estate Marketing Ltd. “The market is finally moving past the hangover from the 2008/09 economic downturn and getting back to solid fundamentals,” says Diane Delves, president and CEO of Quantum Properties. “People are seeing real estate as a solid investment again, projects that have been shelved — sometimes for years — are underway, and there’s a lot of optimism going forward.”

Tracie McTavish, president of Rennie Marketing Systems, agrees, noting that signs of this positive change actually began 22 YPNEXTHOME.CA

appearing toward the end of 2014. “Typically we shut down our presentation centres over the holidays, but last December there was so much demand we kept them open over Christmas and the New Year. We ended up selling 49 homes during a period when we normally go dark.”

Spotlight on Lifestyle Like many other industry watchers, McTavish says he’s seen the trend for homebuyers to consider the complete package of product and lifestyle — rather than focusing exclusively on location — steadily gaining traction during 2015. “Geographic distinctions are being rubbed out. Today’s buyers are far more likely to say ‘I want a two-bedroom at a certain price, where can I buy one?’ rather than saying they want a home in a particular neighbourhood.”

Greg Zayadi, vice president of sales and marketing at Anthem Properties, agrees. “When they find the right product at the right price, people will move, even if it means commuting.”

By the end of the year, overall sales will likely be more 15,000 and could very well exceed 16,000 — which will be a new benchmark.

Saltbox architecture and contemporary floorplans made Fremont Blue by MOSAIC Homes a winner.

Seymour Village by Takaya and Aquilini Developments brought a sizzling, contemporary style to the North Vancouver townhouse market.

However, he stresses it’s a mistake to assume the ‘right’ product — the type of home everyone aspires to — is automatically a single-family, detached house with a white picket fence.

“Increasingly, buyers are making a choice to purchase townhomes and condos… even if they have a million dollars in the bank. Many consumers don’t want the big house — younger buyers often don’t even want a car. And that’s perfectly fine, because a well-designed 600 or 700 or 800 square feet can be extremely comfortable, give them all the space they need, and be close to the urban centres where they want to live. Think about it, do they have this discussion about single-family living in Europe or New York?”

And for all you folks who love detail, here are some of the specifics.

According to research from Urban Analytics, at the end of the third quarter (Q3) overall sales were up 20 per cent over 2014 with a large number taking place in sub-markets. Not surprisingly, one negative result of this increased activity is that available supply of all product types is down — at the end of Q3 only 721 townhome units were available for purchase which translates to 2.64 months of supply.

The condo sector fared a bit better with a 4.1 month supply of concrete condo and 4.6 months of wood frame supply available.

Speaking to a sell-out audience at the Urban Development Institute, Urban Analytic’s managing principal Michael Ferreira offered some additional insights and highlights of townhouse hot spots from 2015.

In North Vancouver, a market that’s seen virtually no townhouse development for many years, two recently released projects — Maplewood Place and Seymour Village — chalked up 30 sales in two weeks, and 28 in the first week respectively, leaving no doubt there is still plenty of pent-up demand for townhome product.

Hits in the Tri-Cities market included Fremont Village by MOSAIC Homes (116 units in the past year and more than 300 units since launching in spring 2013) and Intracorp’s Black+Whites that wowed buyers with its 1930s New York style and colourful front doors.

Ferreira gave top marks to Village Green as this year’s best selling Maple Ridge project, citing its two-storey design as the primary differentiator.

And in Langley, Exchange’s sharp pricing and rooftop decks, details that proved particularly attractive to entry-level and restart buyers, resulted in 98 sales in just six months.

In the Area – key amenities Major sports and recreation facilities have been constructed throughout Fleetwood and its many amenities are a draw for residents from all parts of Surrey. Surrey schools have a good reputation, and the city has also invested heavily in preserving green spaces either as natural greenbelts or as parks.

Fleetwood A THOUSAND PEOPLE move to Surrey every month, and many of them find a home in the neighbourhood of Fleetwood. The area’s northern boundary follows 96 Avenue from 148 Street to 164 Street. Its eastern boundary is a stepped edge following 164 Street south from 96 Street to 90 Avenue and then cutting east along a greenbelt joining with 88 Avenue; the boundary then continues east on 88 Avenue until 168 Street, then follows 168 south to 80 Avenue where it turns east and continues to 172 Street and finally continues south along 172 until 76 Avenue. On the south side, the boundary follows 76 Avenue from 172 Street to 152, then heads north up to 80 Avenue, then west along 80 Avenue to 144 Street. The western edge is bounded by 144 Street from 80 Avenue 92 Avenue where it turns east till 148 Street, then continues north along 148 to 96 Avenue.

Lifestyle New and old mix in the Fleetwood neighbourhood in east-central Surrey.

With its large lots, the area is slowly being revitalized with newer larger houses replacing the housing stock built largely in the ’60s and ’70s. Families can

Dollars & Sense

still find a house with a yard at a relatively reasonable price in Fleetwood, but the city has also started densifying the town centre area and townhomes and condos have been built close to the commercial hub at Fleetwood Park Village.

The Fleetwood area isn’t a high-end neighbourhood; rather, its shops and services cater to middle-class families with middle-income budgets. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t good grocery stores, like Fresh St. Market, located at Fleetwood Park Village, with its deli counter and specialty foods, as well as retail chain stores as well as mom-andpop shops.

The Vibe

Planes, Trains & Automobiles

Fleetwood residents love their quiet neighbourhood—far from the crime that City of Surrey is sometimes known for.

While the area is primarily residential, there are services and amenities so Fleetwood residents can spend their leisure hours close to home. City staff take pride in the area’s many parks and their beautiful gardens are a testament to their hard work.

Fleetwood residents will find traffic somewhat of a hassle, especially if their daily commute is heading downtown.

But the neighbourhood is fairly close to both Highway One and the new South Perimeter Road. The Fraser Highway bisects Fleetwood, taking residents east to Langley or west to central Surrey.

Bus service isn’t optimal, but the City of Surrey’s long-term plan is to have light rapid transit connecting Fleetwood westward to the SkyTrain grid in central Surrey and eastward to Langley City.

Meet the Neighbours Surrey is a multicultural city and Fleetwood is also a destination point for many new Canadians. About 20 per cent of the residents of Surrey speak Punjabi as their first language, but also immigrants from the Philippines, China and other parts of the world are making Fleetwood their home. According to 2010 Statistics Canada numbers, incomes in Fleetwood, at about $50,000 per annum, are slightly below average incomes in Surrey.

The Good, the Bad & the Rest It’s taking a while for Fleetwood to modernize and some neighbourhoods still have rundown homes and vestiges of neglect. But as the City of Surrey pushes forward with its planning, focusing on development and density in town sites like Fleetwood, the area is slowly getting a more 21st century feel to it.

Advice | BUYER PROFILE

Dale and Edwin at Brooklyn Village Worth the Wait

by Susan M Boyce

AS DALE AND EDWIN were signing the sale contract for their two-bedroom and den townhome at Brooklyn Village, they looked out the presentation centre’s window and could see the foundations of their new home being poured. It would be another four months before they could move in, but after searching for over a year, they had no hesitation about the wait.

“We saw a lot of places, and we just kept coming back to this one,” Dale says. “It’s a quiet location, the price was what we were looking for, and we really liked the openness of the layout. Plus we’ve got two large bedrooms, a garage for Edwin’s car, and a den on the lower level.”

Dale gives a good natured shrug as he confesses that initially he felt a bit hesitant about having the kitchen in the middle of the main floor. Now, though, he’s a convert. “It works really well when it’s just the two of us, and it’s great for entertaining.”

Sealing the deal was being able to purchase a sunny, end unit. “We didn’t actually realize how dark our condo was until we moved here. Now we have windows on three sides, so it’s always bright inside.”

Buying during preconstruction, the couple were also able to choose their colour scheme and add a few tweaks to the finishing details. “Anne, the sales manger, was so accommodating,” Dale says. “Mostly it was small things.

For instance, the center island had an electrical outlet on one end, but we wanted one on both ends. She made it happen.”

Entertaining is a joy in Dale and Edwin’s new home.

On July 1st, one of the hottest days of the summer, the moving van arrived at the front door and Dale and Edwin finally arrived at their new home. In September, they truly put their kitchen to a test of functionality when they hosted a catered party for 40 friends and family. It was a gala celebration with some happy extras.

“I have a clergy friend who did a house blessing for us,” Dale says, then smiles. “Edwin and I have been together for 20 years, so at the end we got married too. It was a wonderful day.”
