You may have noticed recently that “Millennial” has become a popular buzzword in headlines.

CIBC warns that many Millennials aren’t on track to afford a new home because they haven’t saved for a down payment. Royal LePage has drawn a similar conclusion, adding that many Millennials are struggling to afford a home in Vancouver and are therefore getting financial help or looking to the suburbs (page 34), which offer their own set of perks for soon-to-be homebuyers. On page 32, we explore Fraser Valley, an example of an affordable and exciting option.

Down payments aren’t the only expenses homebuyers should expect. And if you’re wondering what the others are, you’re not alone – TD’s recent survey reveals that many first-time homebuyers are afraid of unexpected costs that may pop up during the homebuying process. On page 58, we explore those expenses and how you can prepare for them to reduce unnecessary stress.

As you look for your new home and a fresh start, we hope to help you keep your current home looking and feeling fresh, too. In this issue, we talk about how to make your bedroom feel cosy (page 44) and how to create a personalized baby’s room (page 52). If you’re in the market for new bedsheets, check out our tips on page 47; I was surprised to learn that thread count isn’t actually an indicator of bedsheet quality (who knew?).

COVER STORY THE GRANDE AT SUTER BROOK VILLAGE

The Grande

at Suter Brook Village This is it: The grand finale of Onni’s award-winning Suter Brook Village in Port Moody. The Grande is this master-planned community’s last highrise and the only remaining opportunity to purchase a brand-new home in one of the city’s most popular and dynamic neighbourhoods.

“Suter Brook has been over a decade in the making,” says Nic Jensen, Onni’s vice-president of sales. “People love the vibe here in the Village.

It’s very urban, very fun, and you’re still in Port Moody near the Burrard Inlet and all the amazing outdoor recreation opportunities.”

The combination, he adds, is attracting a diverse array of homeowners, from first-time buyers and young couples to savvy downsizers ready for the convenience of lock-and-go living. “We’re also seeing many young families who want to put down roots in an affordable community where 16 NextHome.ca | Coquitlam / Port Coquitlam / Pitt Meadows / Maple Ridge

they can actually get to know their neighbours.”

SOPHISTICATED INTERIORS

Life at The Grande is all about luxury. These are homes designed to satisfy the most discerning purchaser. European-inspired kitchens invite culinary adventures with fully integrated European appliances, marble countertops and double undermount stainless-

steel sinks. Bathrooms are elegant with marble floors and counters, decadent soaker tubs, heated floors and frameless glass showers with a convenient accessories niche.

Air-conditioning is standard and, throughout, seven-ft. doorways complement the nine-ft. ceilings, adding an airy sense of spaciousness that replicates the ambiance of a single-family residence.

OH, WOW, AMENITIES!

As you’d expect from Onni, The Grande’s amenities are world class.

In total, The Grande health and fitness club will offer 40,000 sq. ft. of indoor-outdoor space for

homeowners to enjoy. Invite your friends and family to celebrate life’s special events in the party room with full chef’s kitchen or fire up the barbecue for al fresco dining on the terrace. There’s also a games room, kids’ playroom, sports simulator room, state-ofthe-art theatre and multi-faceted fitness area, meaning you can toss the expensive gym membership.

AMAZING NEIGHBOURHOOD

“Port Moody has really become a destination,” Jensen says. “There’s just so much going on here. You’ve got Brewery Row with four micro breweries and multiple eateries within a four block radius, Rocky Point Park for kayaking and picnics, as well as some amazing boutiques, the library, the aquatics complex and a couple of art galleries.”

You also get easy access to downtown Vancouver via transit, car or designated cycling routes.

Parents and lifelong learners are also delighted by the proximity to schools at all levels. You could say this is a neighbourhood that has it all.

The Grande at Suter Brook Village is a 26-storey highrise offering 219 homes that range from one- to three-bedroom plus an exclusive collection of penthouse homes with up to 2,100 sq. ft. of living space and a private rooftop patio. Presentation centre is open noon to 6 p.m. daily except Fridays at 601 – 220 Brew St. in Port Moody.

NEIGHBOURHOOD PROFILE

BURQUITLAM A HUB BETWEEN CITIES

Like the union of a celebrity couple, the names “Burnaby” and “Coquitlam” were united to create the name “Burquitlam,” the area where these cities meet. Also sometimes called West Coquitlam, Burquitlam more recently became home to Burquitlam Station, putting its residents close to some of the province’s best educational institutions and exciting shopping opportunities, making it a very attractive place to live.

IN THE AREA

This is an area in flux, and the vibe is one of excitement about what the future holds. People investing in this area are attracted by the newer developments and the recently built Burquitlam Station, which makes it that much easier to get to and from this neighbourhood.

Burquitlam promises a variety of shopping opportunities, offering close proximity to Burnaby’s Lougheed Town Centre, which is

18 NextHome.ca | Coquitlam / Port Coquitlam / Pitt Meadows / Maple Ridge

currently being renovated and set to offer a new dining area later this year, and nearby New Westminster Quay along the Fraser River. When you add wonderful parks, such as Burnaby Lake and Como Lake, and the malls and shops already in this neighbourhood, you can see what all the buzz is about.

Evergreen Extension, it redefined the transportation landscape in Burquitlam, offering one of the most convenient ways to get around, whether commuting to and from downtown or Burnaby or elsewhere in the Tri-Cities.

This station gives neighbourhood residents easy access to Simon Fraser University (SFU) and the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT), plus it aligns with Clarke Road and grants access to rapid bus service to Lougheed Town Centre Station – all reasons why it’s so convenient.

THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE REST

As it stands now, Burquitlam is conveniently saddling two cities: Burnaby and Coquitlam. As such, current residents of the area have relatively easy access to the services offered by either city. Thanks to the Evergreen Extension, this location is all the more convenient, and builders are banking on it: There’s a lot of development under way right now and a lot more growth to behold.

BRICKWATER 2 VILLAGE VIBE IN MAPLE RIDGE Something fresh, dynamic and different has arrived in Maple Ridge. Say hello to Brickwater 2, the second phase of Falcon Homes’ dynamic master-planned community that’s poised to bring a Yaletown, village vibe to the neighbourhood. But you’ll have to hurry because fewer than eight homeownership opportunities remain in Phase Two. Ultimately to be comprised of four buildings around a central plaza with reflection ponds, gardens, walking paths and plenty of outdoor seating, Brickwater offers homes that are as diverse as the people who live here. “We have everything from an 800-sq.-ft. one-bedroom to a spectacular two-bedroom and den with 1,595 sq. ft. of living space that feels like a rancher in the sky,” says Nicole Buckle, sales manager.

“It’s going to be a very lively, engaging place to be.”

BE PART OF THE VILLAGE

“The village concept is new to Maple Ridge – something people have been waiting for,” Buckle says.

“Right outside your door you’ll find intriguing shops run by locals – bistros like Big Feast, where you can visit with your neighbours over a latte, Thrifty Foods for groceries and Maple Ridge Florist for freshcut flowers. At last you truly can live, work, shop and play here.”

LIFESTYLE TO DELIGHT

“Falcon Homes are known for their high quality and attention to the smallest of details,” Buckle adds.

“It’s why we include things like gas ranges, air conditioning, lowthreshold showers, and amazing

20 NextHome.ca | Coquitlam / Port Coquitlam / Pitt Meadows / Maple Ridge

entertainment-sized kitchens as standard features. It gives our homeowners the freedom to enjoy life in a home they could live in forever.”

Need more enticement? Check out Brickwater’s rooftop patio.

“Imagine grabbing a glass of wine after work and just relaxing while you take in the views of the Golden Ears,” Buckle says. “What a fantastic way to end your day.”

Brickwater’s presentation centre and display suite are open noon to 5 p.m. daily at 22625 Selkirk Ave. in Maple Ridge. Prices start at $479,900 with floorplans ranging from 800 to 1,595 sq. ft.

THE 2018 OVATION AWARDS CELEBRATING EXCELLENCE

by SUSAN M BOYCE

Adera – South Ridge Club

Alabaster – Osler Residences

It was an evening of glitz and glamour as more than 500 builders, renovators and marketers gathered at the JW Marriott Parq Vancouver to celebrate the ninth annual Ovation Awards. This highly anticipated event is always a showcase of the creativity, vision and innovation that characterize Metro Vancouver’s residential construction industry, and 2018 was no exception.

Once again Adera made an impressive showing by striking gold four times, including earning the prestigious Multi-Family Home Builder of the Year award for the third time. Located on a sloped property in South Surrey, South Ridge Club offers a diverse range of plans and exceptional amenities – just two of the features Eric Andreasen, Adera’s vice-president of marketing and sales, says has helped garner this community ongoing recognition at all levels of competition from municipal to national. “It’s rare to find a 6,500-square-foot clubhouse for a community of just 210 homes,” he says. “And the private, rooftop lanais are some of the largest we’ve ever built – which our homeowners love because the North Shore Mountain views are amazing.”

Also in South Surrey, Southside by Miracon took top honours for Best Single-Family Detached Home (Production): 2,400 sq. ft. and Over. Later in the evening, Miracon was also named Single-Family Home Builder of the Year, an achievement Ryan O’Shea, vice-president of marketing and sales, says 22 NextHome.ca | Coquitlam / Port Coquitlam / Pitt Meadows / Maple Ridge

is about meticulous attention to detail. “We start by really considering our buyers’ lifestyle, then we design homes that enhance the way people actually live – homes that replicated the ambiance of a custom home.” Thoughtful details include an easy flow between the great room and deck for comfortable indoor-outdoor living, integrated speakers throughout – even on the back patio – and cleverly designed mudrooms that help keep dirt at bay.

Anzio by Project Mint was named Best Townhouse/ Rowhome Development (Infill) in addition to the BC Housing Award for Excellence in Innovative Housing Choices when it transformed a single-family lot in Mount Pleasant into three townhomes plus an airy, two-level laneway home. “Good design has a massive impact on a home’s value, its sustainability and its day-to-day comfort,” says Nick Bray, sales. As a cool bonus, the site’s mature fig tree was preserved.

First-time entrant Alabaster Homes was a double winner for Osler Residences. “This is not only Alabaster’s first project, but it is also the first townhome project to be built in this area of Marpole,” says Yosh Kasahara, director of sales and marketing.

“We wanted to set a precedent for new development by embracing the history of the neighbourhood through design. Features like stone archways, intricate window mullions and slop-dash stucco create a heritage look, as if these homes have been here forever, while inside they are completely modern.” He

Platinum Group of Companies – Albion Station

Miracon – Southside

Project Mint – Anzio

says it’s Osler Residences’ ability to enhance rather than change the surrounding historic neighbourhood that made it a winner.

In Maple Ridge, Albion Station by Platinum Group of Companies wowed judges in the best landscaping category (multi-family or single-family production) with its “natural” rain gardens and park-like setting.

The open, central greenspace serves double duty by incorporating an innovative system of eco-swales that naturally bio-filter contaminates in run-off water.

The now purified water is then used to rehydrate an “at risk” wetland along the property’s western edge.

A kids’ play area with a whimsical ice cream parlour/

playhouse painted a hay-barn red and approximately one kilometre of walking-trails make this a multigenerational community that respects nature.

“Our province is seen as a leader in the residential construction industry,” notes Selina Robinson, BC’s minister of municipal affairs and housing, in her opening remarks. “The homes you build are recognized for quality of construction, sustainability, energy efficiency, and design. You inspire innovation in home construction and renovation.”

BORDEAUX BRENTWOOD’S SPARKLING JEWEL It’s official – homeowners have discovered Brentwood.

This up-and-coming Burnaby neighbourhood now boasts some of Metro Vancouver’s finest retail, a diverse array of recreational amenities, as well as a desirable connectivity to… well, to everywhere.

So it’s no wonder that Bordeaux by award-winning Solterra is already turning heads and winning hearts.

“Bordeaux is going to be Brentwood’s newest sparkling jewel, a signature tower with distinctive architecture and an exceptional level of luxury,” says Laura Rizzo, vice-president of marketing. “And since there are only 140 homes, the building will have an intimate, boutique ambiance that’s unusual to find in such an urban setting.”

ELEVATED LUXURY

Inside, Bordeaux homes are meticulously crafted to resonate with sophisticated, modern homebuyers: Imported Italian kitchens, trendsetting finishes and fixtures, oversized balconies, air conditioning, and intelligent, open-concept floorplans that let you live life on your own terms. “And, of course, we will also offer 26 NextHome.ca | Burnaby / New Westminster

our signature Private Collection of apartment residences from the 17th to the 23rd floor penthouses, as well as a limited collection of luxury townhomes,” Rizzo notes.

Amenities, too, are sure to impress, with more than 19,000 sq. ft. in total. There’s a gym with 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.

Worth celebrating is Bordeaux’s location near the Central Valley Greenway, a favourite among joggers and cyclists. There will also be plenty of storage for your favourite two-wheeler.

Bordeaux will be located at Juneau Street and Willingdon Avenue. Presentation centre now open by appointment only at 4247 Lougheed Highway. Prices start at $519,900.

ADVICE | CONDO SENSE

FRASER VALLEY OFFERS ATTRACTIVE LIFESTYLE FOR LESS The Fraser Valley is a welcome change of pace for homebuyers, with great neighbourhoods offering a strong sense of community, such as Mill District located near the beautiful Mill Lake Park in Abbotsford.

CAMERON MCNEILL

The Fraser Valley is seeing heightened interest from local home seekers. The region offers beautiful views, a welcome change of pace, and homes at great values. As prices continue to escalate in each submarket of Vancouver and in surrounding areas, more purchasers are looking eastwards towards the Fraser Valley as they re-evaluate their home options.

MAXIMIZE YOUR PURCHASING POWER

This spectacular region offers homebuyers greater purchasing power along with larger living spaces. As a result, the housing market in the Fraser Valley has seen a 75 per cent sold rate for new pre-sale inventory from January to April 2018. More home seekers are shifting their focus from Vancouver and its 32 NextHome.ca | Vancouver / Downtown Vancouver

surrounding areas to the Fraser Valley, and buyers are trading certain conveniences such as commute time and ease of access to the urban core for more space.

Raising children with a spacious backyard and utilizing more bedrooms in a family home are attractive features not typically available to many young families in Greater Vancouver.

A SOCIAL HUB

If you think moving to the Fraser Valley will limit your social life or activity schedule, think again.

You’re a stone’s throw from many restaurants, wineries, farmers’ markets and seasonal activities such as pumpkin patches and Christmas tree farms, providing activities for the whole family yearround. Additionally, community events are frequent in the valley – from Abbotsford’s popular air show to the many sports events and concerts happening at the Langley Events Centre or Tradex.

RIPE MARKET

If the Fraser Valley interests you, now may be the best time to

act. The market has escalated at a tremendous rate over the last year and is expected to continue. As an example, Langley townhomes have appreciated 20 per cent over the last 12 months, compared to 10 per cent in Vancouver. With limited inventory on the market and a continuous stream of people wanting to call the Fraser Valley home, there has never been a better time to buy.

Spring is one of the busier times of the year for real estate and it will be exciting to see all the new projects scheduled for the region.

CAN MILLENNIALS AFFORD HOMES IN VANCOUVER?

In Greater Vancouver, Canada’s most expensive housing market, high home values are pushing many peak Millennials into the suburbs, according to Royal LePage.

And over the last year, high rates of price appreciation and heightened competition over listings within the region’s entry-level market have made it difficult for peak Millennials to find property, especially in the downtown core.

Not to mention the average Canadian peak Millennial’s purchasing power dropped by approximately 16.5 per cent ($40,103) after the introduction of the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI) stress test.

“As prices continue to grow across Greater Vancouver, peak Millennials have found it hard to find a home,” says Adil Dinani, real estate advisor, Royal LePage West Real Estate Services. “New mortgage regulations have weakened this demographic’s purchasing power, making it tougher to compete with other buyers who now find themselves in the entrylevel market as well.”

34 NextHome.ca | Vancouver / Downtown Vancouver

In major cities across Canada, a growing number of peak Millennials will save, pool their money with a partner and/or borrow funds from their parents, many of whom are downsizing in retirement and can financially contribute to their child’s first home purchase. While peak Millennials are largely able to afford their monthly mortgage expenses, coming up with an adequate down payment often proves to be the greatest hurdle to homeownership among the demographic.

“These purchasers are trying everything they can to get into the market before prices move out of their reach,” Dinani concludes. “From what we are observing, the majority of purchasers within this age range are getting assistance from their families to find enough money for a down payment on a starter home.”

There are other options, too. According to Royal LePage, many peak Millennials are looking to the suburbs, such as Coquitlam, Langley and Surrey, or further east into Abbotsford, Mission and Chilliwack, where properties are even more affordable.

MARCA LIVE INSPIRED Looking for a special place to call home in South Surrey? A community that’s quiet and gracious yet connected to all the urban amenities you crave?

Well, here’s the news you’ve been waiting for: Marca is preparing its grand opening celebration on June 2, and you’re not going to want to miss it.

DRAMATIC BY DESIGN

Marca’s chalet-inspired architecture is eye-catching and dramatically different. Massive wood columns and accents, glass railings, natural brick and expansive balconies create an inviting streetscape filled with character and charm. This is a place that simply feels good.

Inside, these homes are large – really large. “The average size is 38 NextHome.ca | South Surrey / White Rock

2,500 square feet – four bedrooms plus a flex space – so Marca is perfect for families and downsizers who want to bring their real world sized furniture with them,” says Sharon Johal, sales manger.

“Smart home technology, airconditioning, and a hot-tub-ready backyard are all standards, too.”

Still, it’s the welcoming ambiance that’s truly capturing people’s hearts. “We’ve raised the bar on luxury,” Johal says.

“Features such as exposed beams, black faucets and closet barn doors add a hint of tradition to contemporary finishings such as stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops and eight-ft. kitchen islands. The result is a timelessness that appeals to all generations.”

And here’s an intelligent bonus you typically only find in custom-

built houses: Every Marca home comes roughed-in for a future personal elevator on all three floors, and you can choose to have one installed as an upgrade.

Ideal for young families juggling sports gear and groceries as well as downsizers who no longer want the hassle of stairs, this is an invisible, multi-generational solution to some of life’s annoying problems.

Marca’s presentation centre and display home open June 2 at 1454 – 162B St. in South Surrey (King George Boulevard at 14 Avenue). Register today because only 18 ownership opportunities are available.

For more information, visit marcabymortise.com or call 604.720.7478.

A STATEMENT TO BE MADE

Fantom stands as a beacon on White Rock’s shores, a magnificent landmark reminiscent of seafaring ships and seaside adventures. It is also the winner for the Best Marketing Campaign at the 2018 Ovation Awards.

Fantom’s marketing is a classic, stylized tribute to the elegance and glamour that define Art Deco – a time when gentlemen wore tuxedos and no lady would be seen outdoors without a hat, gloves and a statement to make. A marketing campaign that reflects its soon-to-be homeowners.

Built by award-winning Forge Properties, Fantom was designed and constructed consciously – inspired by urban design, the natural landscape and the elegance of the roaring ’20s.

The select 25 individual residences offer homeowners the comfort and security that come with knowing their floor is exclusive to their neighbours. With only three units per floor, every home is a prized corner unit with an awe-inspiring view.

The thoughtfully designed interiors, distinguished architecture and finely crafted living space make this a worldly home, sophisticated and comfortable for the well-rounded and active individual. The kitchen, for example, features a dramatic oversized island with luxurious marble countertops and matching

by JO ALCORN

Decorating your bedroom last is a common faux-pas. Really, the opposite should be true. Your bedroom is the first thing you see in the morning, and the last place you curl up each night. So, it should be a space that makes you happy and where you enjoy spending time. I recently worked on a bedroom that completely lacked inspiration.

In a house where the rest of the rooms were stylish, functional and inspiring, this revamp was long overdue. Read on to find out how I created a dream bedroom makeover.

PAINT COLOUR To start, I always recommend a paint colour that you love; choose one that gives you a serene, relaxing feel and that speaks to you personally. For this space, I chose Benjamin Moore’s (benjaminmoore.com) Wickham Gray HC-171. It was the base that started to bring this room to life.

DESIGNER TOUCH Every room needs interest and dimension, and the bedroom is no exception. I made this room a designer’s dream by creating a wall treatment using great trim products from Metrie (metrie.com), which gave the space an elegant feel.

STANDOUT PIECE A fireplace is the perfect addition to a bedroom setting and this electric unit adds the perfect ambiance. This fireplace is a Dimplex (dimplex.com) unit that took the homeowner only 25 minutes to unload, unpack and set up! While the fireplace alone is eye-catching, we didn’t stop there. We had a custom build-up created with a mantel to make the fireplace really stand out. I used Metrie products again and matched the existing crown moulding to the new unit. And for the finishing touch on the mantel, some great artwork and accessories from HomeSense (homesense.ca) really pulled it all together.

MATTRESS No bedroom is complete without a bed – it is the most important functional piece in the room. In this space we used a Casper mattress (casper.com), which was delivered in a box right to the homeowners’ front door.

It’s a great option for city dwellers and people without cars. Plus, it’s extremely comfortable! I paired that with the headboard and bed frame from my Jo Alcorn Collection (alcornhome.com).

LINENS

LIGHTING

This is where you can have some serious fun with patterns, colour and texture. I started with crisp white sheets, pillows and pillow cases from Casper and topped it off with a subtle duvet cover from HomeSense.

From my Jo Alcorn Home Collection, I used pillows to incorporate the exact texture and finishing touches that are perfect for this room.

Don’t forget about lighting… and darkening. You need to make sure you have the perfect lighting for reading and relaxing, but darkness is a necessity for sleeping. In this bedroom, the side table lamps and curtains were purchased from Wayfair (wayfair.ca). A stroll through Bouclair Home (bouclair. com) led to the perfect ceiling light. Sometimes wandering through a home store will inspire your creativity and help you find those unique pieces that can complete a room.

PRACTICAL ELEMENTS I often add a bench to the end of the bed. It looks great and is the perfect place to pile your decorative pillows and throw at night when you turn in. For this space I used this stylish white bench from Bouclair Home (bouclair.com), which fit perfectly into the space and budget.

There are three components to look for when purchasing authentic quality sheets:

1.

THE TYPE OF COTTON. Long staple cotton is considered to be the best in the world, due to the strength and softness of its long fibres.

Egyptian and American Pima are two of the world’s best cottons.

2.

WHERE THE FABRIC IS WOVEN. Italian mills are the world’s foremost experts thanks to their long history of weaving and superior technology. Sheets woven in Italy, or other parts of Europe such as Portugal and Switzerland, will typically be of a higher quality than parts of the world where weaving is a more recent industry and technology is not quite as advanced.

3.

THE THREAD COUNT. Look for a thread count higher than 200 (less than 200 is called muslin), but remember, thread count is a personal preference. It’s all about determining what feel you like best. Do you prefer your sheets to feel soft or crisp? Fine or heavy? It’s up to you! What matters most is that the sheet has the very best raw materials: Long staple Egyptian or Pima cotton, and a superior weave.

IN THE MARKET FOR NEW BEDSHEETS? JOANNA GOODMAN, OWNER OF AU LIT FINE LINENS, EXPLAINS IT’S NOT ALL ABOUT THE THREAD COUNT! WHO KNEW, RIGHT? CHECK OUT HER TOP TIPS BEFORE YOU HIT THE SHOPS

EXPERT TIP: Always look for 100-per-cent long staple cotton sheets. Labels can be misleading. While numerous brands claim to use “Egyptian cotton,” their linens may contain as little as one per cent. Make sure the packaging says 100 per cent Egyptian or Pima cotton. Also, where the product is made is not necessarily where the fabric is woven. If you find a very inexpensive sheet with a really high thread count, it’s probably not pure Egyptian cotton, or has an inferior weave from a country without a long history of weaving or state-of-the-art technology.

SALES & MARKETING

in Designer Jaclyn Harper creates a dainty nursery for her daughter Evie and shares some information on how you can create your own personalized baby room There are so many things to consider when designing your baby’s nursery. Do you want it to be gender specific? Do you want furniture that will grow with your child? Is it a small space? Are you on a tight budget? I’ll stop there. It can be overwhelming for sure! I’m here to help. Let’s get you thinking about your nursery by breaking the design down into three parts.

FLOORPLAN Before you decide on a colour or finishes for your room, it’s important to consider the space that you’re working with. If you have a small nursery (like I do), I’d suggest avoiding heavy and bulky furniture items. This means opting for a crib that has thin spindles and sleek lines. Keep this in mind when shopping for your dresser and glider as well. The bigger the furniture, the smaller your room will feel. The only item this does not apply to is an area rug. I love the look of a layered rug to make a room feel cosy. There are some fantastic washable options for kids that you can throw right into the washing machine. I then like to ground the space with a large neutral rug. This can add texture and warmth to the nursery.

You can use green painter’s tape to measure out the furniture you’re sourcing.

It will help give you an idea how everything will fit into the room.

COLOUR When it comes to the colour of your space, I’ve got a great rule for you to consider. I call it the 60-30-10 rule – 60 per cent will be the primary colour. For example, let’s choose white (I love a neutral white wall for any space). Then you’d choose a secondary colour at 30 per cent for the room – let’s go with pink. Lastly, your accent colour, which is your 10 per cent, could be green. I know this sounds like a strange combination, but if you look at my nursery for Evie, that’s exactly what I’ve done. This is a great colour theory for any room in your home. Also keep in mind that when it comes to colour, you don’t have to go crazy with your paint selection. Stick to areas that you can change easily such as smaller accessories. Crib sheets, throw blankets, pillows and rugs are a great place to play with colour and pattern. Bouclair (bouclair. com) has quite the selection of colourful accessories to choose from in its baby and kids’ line, but you can also use items from its regular line, which can then grow with the space.

FINISHING TOUCHES Speaking of accessories, the biggest tip I can give you would be – don’t over do it. A lot of the time, people put too many trinkets on display, which can ultimately make the space look and feel cluttered. Go for fewer items on display to finish off your nursery. For instance, I’ve decorated Evie’s nursery with simple accessories such as a curated selection of children’s books, a plush stuffie, an adorable frilly dress, potted plants and even a single pair of shoes. Now, that’s practical decor, right? The Shoe Fairy (shoefairy.ca) has an amazing selection of shoes for your nursery. I also suggest artwork that isn’t just for your baby.

You’re the one who will be spending copious amounts of time in this space. Make it livable and enjoyable for you. Purchase a piece that you love – you will be staring at it a lot!

EXPECTED EXPENSES FOR

FIRST-TIME BUYERS A new survey by TD reveals that more than half (56 per cent) of Canadian first-time homebuyers are afraid they’ll forget to take a crucial step as they gain their foothold on the property ladder.

Thankfully there are ways to financially prepare and reduce stress for first-time homebuyers.

Of those polled, 24 per cent say that the homebuying process is stressing them out, while 21 per cent admit they are simply overwhelmed. The survey findings also reveal that 71 per cent of firsttime buyers are worrying about being hit with unanticipated costs during the homebuying process. At the same time, only 39 per cent are taking steps to reduce their debt and less than 28 per cent are working to improve their credit score.

“First-time buyers often enter the process with lots of unanswered questions,” says Marc Kulak, vice-president, TD Bank Group. “By anticipating expenses and adopting sound financial behaviours, you are setting yourself up for success.”

For first-time homebuyers looking to ease anxiety and stress during their homebuying journey, TD offers the following tips and advice: MANAGE ANY EXISTING DEBT

Before applying for a mortgage, learn how much home you may be able to afford after monthly expenses, debt payments and savings are accounted for.

CONSIDER ALL HOMEBUYING COSTS

Less than half of surveyed first-

time buyers had planned for appraisal fees (49 per cent), mortgage default insurance (47 per cent) or closing adjustments (41 per cent). Be aware of all the possible costs you could face so you don’t get hit with an unexpected expense.

payments will be the only home-related expenses you’ll face. From property taxes to maintenance costs, there are lots of responsibilities and expenses that come with owning a home.

PROTECT YOUR HOME

MAKE YOUR MORTGAGE WORK FOR YOU

The TD survey revealed that 52 per cent of first-time homebuyers are uncertain which type of mortgage would be the best fit for their needs and lifestyle. Meeting with a financial advisor can help determine the best mortgage type for your personal financial situation.

DON’T PUT YOUR FINANCES UNDER PRESSURE

Don’t make the mistake of assuming your mortgage

Most first-time homebuyers (70 per cent) are prepared for the costs of home insurance. Having the right insurance can help you feel at ease with your specific circumstances and help ensure there are no surprises down the road if crisis or catastrophe hits.

TD commissioned Environics Research Group to conduct an online survey among a total of 1,001 adults from Feb. 5 to 14, 2018. All respondents had to be 18 to 69 years of age, be a first-time homebuyer and reside in Canada.

Coming this spring is an exciting opportunity to purchase a brand-new, move-in ready townhome perfectly located where Coquitlam and Port Moody meet. Introducing Dwell24, a collection of just 24 three- and four-bedroom townhomes that offer the best of both worlds.

ENVIABLE LOCATION Located just minutes from the trendy shops at Newport Village and Suter Brook Village, Dwell24 offers easy access to the SkyTrain’s Evergreen Line and West Coast Express Station as well as Highway 1, Barnet Highway and Lougheed Highway – so getting around Metro Vancouver is easy.

Growing families will be delighted by the local schools and day care centres, plus all the outdoor recreation that makes this part of Metro Vancouver a favourite with nature enthusiasts of all ages. There’s also Rocky Point Park, where you’ll find well-attended, family-friendly events throughout the seasons.

a spacious, gourmet kitchen with a large island and European-inspired flat cabinetry – great for family celebrations and everyday living. Nine-ft. ceilings throughout the main living areas and vaulted ceilings in the elegant master suites create a sense of space and comfort. There’s also the convenience of a lowerlevel flex space that could be used as a mudroom, additional storage, a man cave, home gym or office, or even a wine cellar.

Dwell24 is located at 2565 Runnel Dr. in Coquitlam.

These spacious three- and four-bedroom townhomes range from 1,323 to 1,638 sq. ft. over three storeys.
