EDITOR’S NOTE
BIGGER DOESN’T ALWAYS MEAN BETTER
SONIA BELL EDITOR NextHome EMAIL: Sonia.Bell@nexthome.ca TWITTER: @soniabellyp
We often talk about condos as an entry point into the market – a way to get in while you can with the prospect of moving into something bigger later. But, condos are more than just an entry-level housing option, they’re a lifestyle. And in addition to young urban professionals and empty nesters, families are also opting for condo living. In fact, this sector has become so popular that it has outpaced the demand for detached homes across Metro Vancouver, according to the latest figures from the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver. In the world of real estate, bigger doesn’t always mean better – especially with the new condos cropping up in the Vancouver market. Gone are the days when single-detached homes were the only option for family living. Combing through new projects in the area, it’s evident that more builders are trying to appeal to buyers with expanding families. Now, you can find condos offering 1,000-plus sq. ft. of space, three bedrooms, and in locations near schools and familyfriendly neighbourhood amenities. Of course, one of the biggest draws is amenities in the building itself, sometimes offering thousands of square feet of space designated for play and relaxation. Couple this with their relative affordability, and condos are continuously becoming the go-to option for homebuyers of varying life stages, including those with growing families.
In the world of real estate, bigger doesn’t always mean better – especially with the new condos cropping up in Vancouver

PROPERTY PROFILE
EDGEMONT WALK EXCEPTIONAL BY DESIGN It’s a neighbourhood that’s loved by locals and visitors alike, a place where you can walk to everything, and where you’ll still find a village butcher, baker and even a candlestick maker – and they know all their regulars by name. Now there’s a new way to experience the charm of Edgemont Village in North Vancouver. Introducing Edgemont Walk, a collection of just 24 townhomes designed to be every bit as great as the village in which they’re located. HOMES FOR REAL PEOPLE
“Edgemont Walk is all about building real homes for real people,” says Marissa Evans, Boffo Properties’ marketing director. “Features like extra-large kitchens, master suites on an entirely private floor, and patios off the main living level make these homes live just like a single-family home.” And here’s something that’s rare to find. Within the underground parkade, every Edgemont Walk home has it’s own secured two-car garage with direct access to your home — such great convenience when you’re unloading groceries or packing up for a camping trip. “Because we’re anticipating there will be high demand from all age groups, we’ve also designed a few select homes with elevators that take you from your garage to all three levels of your home,” Evans adds. “It’s great for downsizers who are looking for a home where they’ll be able to age in place.”

Dramatic, eye-catching and distinctive, this sphere will honour and preserve the heritage of one of North Vancouver’s oldest neighbourhoods in a 21st Century way. 18 NextHome.ca | North Shore / Squamish

The City of North Vancouver is a small community located at the base of the North Shore Mountains. It is bounded to the south by Burrard Inlet, and the District of North Vancouver to the east and west. With a land area of approximately 12 sq. km., the city is blessed with an abundance of Mother Nature’s best outdoor playgrounds.

Residents are pretty happy here. Who wouldn’t be? Mother Nature blessed the city with some heavy hitting natural attractions – skiing, 22 NextHome.ca | North Shore / Squamish

THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE REST
This alpine suburb came to realize that the single-family homes its residents were able to buy decades ago are out of reach for many young adults and families. While rising home values benefit the owners, it’s not allowing for a diverse age group to live here. The good news is that its historical downtown core –

STREET CORNER
North Vancouver is considered an affluent city thanks to its proximity to a sweeping mountain, the easily accessible ocean and beautiful views of the city vistas. Prices for nearly everything you can buy are slightly above average compared to many other municipalities, but still not as expensive as West Vancouver.
“When you cross the bridge there is a feeling of serenity and calm; and yet you’re only 15 minutes away from downtown. Just another reason to love living here!” – YOLANDE, RETIRED HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGER
“I love the air, full of oxygen and the gorgeous mountains so close by… North Vancouver is an oasis.” – BILL, INTERNATIONAL OIL AND GAS PRESIDENT
“You live in the mountains – how cool is that? I have a real affection for the North Shore and I love trail running, so what city could be better?” – GREG, VP OF SALES AND MARKETING
FISHWORKS Housed in a beautiful heritage building, Fishworks delivers in spades – inventive chef, fabulous cuisine, great atmosphere, contemporary decor, and exceptional service.
MOUNT SEYMOUR Having hiked here often, I can tell you it’s majestic! Besides wonderful ski trails, it has an excellent variety of hiking and biking trails, which criss-cross the southern and eastern slopes of the mountain.
MOJA COFFEE When North Vancouverites crave a really good cup of java, they find their way here. Moja Coffee’s baristas are passionate about good coffee. You might want to indulge in one of their fresh pastries!

Or maybe as the holidays approach, you’re already planning turkey dinner for the entire family right down to aunties and uncles. If you’ve been searching for a home 28 NextHome.ca | South Surrey / White Rock
where you can have it all – and then some – hurry on over to Pacific Heights by Foxridge Homes in South Surrey and get set to be wowed big time. HOMES WITH FLAIR
Located on a quiet cul-de-sac, these 28 homes have the inviting sense of welcome Foxridge Homes has long been known for. Be forewarned, you’ll likely find it tough to resist the urge to simply kick off your shoes
and cosy down in the showhome’s living room where a marble-inspired fireplace soars a dramatic 19 ft. to the very top of the two-storey, vaulted ceiling. Truly the heart of this home, though, is the kitchen with its whiteon-white shaker cabinetry, massive island, Bosch wall-mount ovens, gas cooktop and a sophisticated stainless steel, chimney hood fan. “People love centre islands like

this because you can still be part of everything that’s going on in the living room even when you’re prepping dinner,” says Diane Zarola, Foxridge’s director of sales and marketing. No shortage of storage spaces either – including a full pantry. Upstairs you’ll find a double linen closet, full laundry room with side-byside washer/dryer and sink, plus two kids bedrooms. And then there’s the master suite with ocean view, modern
four-poster bed and a free-standing soaker tub that’s, in a word, totally awesome – okay that’s two words but you get the point. Love a hint of bling in your life? Thought so. And Pacific Heights has the answer. Lighting fixtures blend the sparkle of crystal rounds with the metallic sheen of angular, polished chrome frames. The result is beautiful and creates a look that lingers in the memory.
Downstairs, there’s Foxridge’s famous Design Centre, the “Adult Playroom” as Zarola often refers to it. Here, buyers can choose every interior detail for their home – from cabinets, counters and tiles to flooring, faucets and even mirror surrounds. “No one else offers this many choices for customizing your home – it’s just that simple and that exciting,” she says. The Pacific Heights presentation centre and display suite are open noon to 5 p.m. daily at 168th St. and 18th Ave. in South Surrey. Conveniently located across from the winding pathways of Darts Hill Garden Park, near numerous golf courses, minutes to Grandview Corners and The Shops at Morgan Crossing, plus easy access to the U.S. border and the freeway to downtown Vancouver or YVR airport. Prices start at $1.47 million (including net GST and finished basement) for these four- and five-bedroom homes. For more information visit foxridgehomesbc.com or call 604.427.1803.

It’s official. Southside is winning hearts among savvy homebuyers looking for a family-oriented, singlefamily home in sunny South Surrey. Built by Miracon, a well-respected, local builder with deep roots in the neighbourhood, this collection of 50 premium homes is thoughtfully designed to satisfy the most discerning buyer — just like you. LET’S GET COOKING
“Kitchens are always such a prime consideration when people are looking for a home,” says Jas Rai, Miracon’s in-house designer. “Which is why we spent so many hours making them not just functional, but beautiful as well.” And all it takes is one look at the showhome to understand why many visitors can’t resist simply pulling up 30 NextHome.ca | South Surrey / White Rock
a barstool and settling down at the island to admire. A classic, L-shaped beauty, this kitchen is elegant in white-on-white and includes a five-burner gas range, counterdepth fridge, plus a dishwasher and microwave all carefully placed for an easy, open workflow – whether you’re entertaining or just cooking for the family. Cabinetry is a modern “reverse shaker” profile to enhance the sleek, crisp aesthetic and eliminate those annoying dust-catching crevices. And when the inevitable spills happen, there’s the option of a crumb sweeper built right into the island for quicker cleanup. Then there are the myriad small details that add up to bigtime convenience: a pantry for extra storage, slab-style porcelain
backsplash that minimizes grout lines, soft close cabinetry, and undercabinet task lighting so you can see what you’re doing even during the darkest winter evening. And here’s a cool bonus. There’s even a USB outlet conveniently located on the island – because in today’s wired world, you really don’t want to run out of “juice.” It’s all part of Miracon’s commitment to superior quality and style. The Southside presentation centre and display home are open noon to 5 p.m. daily except Fridays at 16480 – 22nd Ave. in South Surrey. Priced from $1.19 million (net GST included). Plans range from 2,418 to 3,600 sq. ft. including finished basement. For more information, visit miracon.ca or call 604.372.3638.

ADVICE | CONDO SENSE
TOWNHOME OR CONDO: WHAT DO YOU CHOOSE?
CAMERON MCNEILL
The day you decide to purchase a new home is an exciting one, whether it’s your first time or you’re finding a different home to better suit your needs. However, once you make this decision, the options available can feel overwhelming. How do you choose the right home? What options do you need to consider? If your budget allows, one of the biggest decisions is whether to opt for a condominium or a townhome. To alleviate discontentment later, it’s important to ask yourself some serious questions before committing to a contract. The first thing to consider is size, and what will best serve you and your family’s needs as they are now and as they continue to evolve in the years to come. For some, a condo with a smaller square footage – a one-bedroom unit or a single floor – will comfortably suit their needs. Others may require the multi-level functionality of a townhome, prefer the easy accessibility of a private front door, or decide that quick access to the outdoors without the hassle of an elevator is necessary for their canine companions – an option that many townhomes provide. Another consideration is how much time you want to allocate to caring for your home. No itch to garden? With limited outdoor space, a condo may suit frequent travelers or 36 NextHome.ca | South Surrey / White Rock
Examining your family’s priorities will help you determine what development will best suit your needs
someone more interested in hosting summer get-togethers on a balcony. However, some new-home owners are looking for a sense of community and may be attracted to a townhome development that gives them more familiarity with their neighbours – all while maintaining more privacy than a multi-unit building provides. It’s important to remember that each development you consider will be unique and there is one out there that can suit all your needs. Some developments, such as Townline’s Jasmine at the Gardens, offer the best of both worlds. This thrilling project offers buyers the privacy of townhome living, but also includes access to 6,000 sq. ft. of shared amenities and greenspace – something found more often in condo towers and offered as part of this master-planned urban village. People’s needs vary widely. What works for you and your family may
not be the same as what works for your parents looking to downsize. The important thing is to make sure you’re addressing and prioritizing what is important to you, so your new home can reflect these concerns. Once you’ve done that, you’ll be one step closer to home sweet home.

TRENDING
HOME SALES & CONSUMER CONFIDENCE ON THE RISE Sales activity and consumer confidence across the Greater Vancouver residential real estate market continued to recover in the third quarter of 2017, according to the Royal LePage House Price Survey. While home price appreciation softened in the detached segment, condominiums continued to prop up the region’s real estate market due to their relative affordability. During the quarter, the aggregate home price in Greater Vancouver rose by a modest but healthy 2.5 per cent year over year (YOY) to $1.23 million. When broken down by housing type, the median price of a condominium surged by 17.6 per cent YOY to $622,392, while the median price of a bungalow appreciated by 3.5 per cent YOY to $1.42 million. Meanwhile, the median price of a standard two-storey home fell, dropping 1.1 per cent to $1.53 million over the same period. During the quarter, affordability
constraints drove many prospective purchasers into the condominium market, placing a severe strain on inventory levels and intensifying competition within the segment. New mortgage regulations, which were introduced in October of last year, only compounded this trend, limiting consumers’ purchasing power and pushing many down into the entrylevel segment of the market. As prices continue to rise, and the affordability that remains within the marketplace deteriorates, prospective homeowners previously on the sidelines are returning to the market in fear of being permanently priced out. “Despite having already taken 30 to 40 per cent of entry-level buyers out of the marketplace entirely, the new mortgage regulations, and requisite stress tests, have helped to significantly drive condominium prices up,” says Randy Ryalls, general manager, Royal LePage Sterling Realty. “The cost of a down payment
for a detached property in Greater Vancouver has already surpassed the average home price in many markets in Canada. Prospective purchasers have redirected their attention to condominiums, vying to enter the market before prices rise to levels that are simply beyond their reach.” Though current conditions have not been kind to those seeking to break into the Greater Vancouver real estate market, they have helped many move-up buyers currently in condominiums and entry-level residences afford a detached home. As these two segments continue to rise at relatively high rates, and twostorey home values moderate, the price gap between them continues to narrow, allowing purchasers to capitalize on the current disparity in price appreciation within the marketplace in order to move into larger, detached homes, particularly within suburban areas where properties are more affordable.

ADVICE | MORTGAGE INTEL
HOW TO IMPROVE THE ODDS OF GETTING A MORTGAGE
ALYSSA FURTADO
Getting a mortgage is a pretty straightforward process, but did you know there are ways to improve the odds of getting one? Ask yourself: “How much mortgage can I afford?” Just because you’re approved for a certain amount, doesn’t mean you should use all of the money available to you. The last thing you want is to be house poor. You should create a budget with expected carrying costs as well as any other expenses that may come up including vacations, retirement savings and having kids. With all that in mind, you can feel comfortable with your numbers. To ensure you get the mortgage that you need, you should do the following: MAKE A LARGE DOWN PAYMENT
With a larger down payment, you won’t need to borrow as much from the bank. Since the bank doesn’t have to lend you as much, there’s a much better chance of you getting that mortgage. Any down payment of more than 20 per cent means you won’t have to buy mortgage default insurance. IMPROVE YOUR CREDIT SCORE
Having a good credit score is one of the biggest factors when determining if you can get a mortgage. Your credit score is a number between 300 and 900, and most large lenders want your score to be at least 650. If yours 52 NextHome.ca | Vancouver / Downtown Vancouver
is below that, take the following steps before applying for a mortgage. Pay your bills on time: This is one of the major factors that determines your credit score. Lenders want to see that you have a history of paying your bills on time. If you miss two payments in a row, your score will drop dramatically. As long as you make the minimum payment listed on your credit card statement, your credit score will remain in good standing. Of course, you’ll end up paying high interest charges, so it’s not a habit to get into. Pay down debt: Lenders also look at how much debt you’re currently holding. If you have a car loan and you’ve maxed out your line of credit, those things could work against you. While having some debt is fine, use a mortgage affordability calculator to see how that debt affects the amount you’ll be approved for when applying for a loan. Don’t apply for additional credit: There’s nothing wrong with having multiple credit cards, but you don’t want to be applying for them right
before you get a mortgage. Lenders will see that you’ve put in these applications and wonder why you suddenly need access to so much credit. Even if you have a legitimate reason, you don’t want to give lenders a reason to decline your mortgage application. THE BOTTOM LINE
Applying for a mortgage is easy, but you’ll want to take a few steps to improve the odds of getting approved. Quite often it comes down to your credit score and debt load, which are easy to improve. Take the steps now so you won’t have any issues later when you’re ready to apply for a mortgage. Alyssa Furtado is founder and CEO of RateHub.ca, a website that compares mortgage rates, credit cards, highinterest savings accounts, chequing accounts, and insurance with the goal to empower Canadians to search smarter and save money.

HOW TO CHOOSE
THE PERFECT FLOORPLAN BOB DE WIT
With the expansive housing options available on the market today, how do homebuyers determine what makes one home more livable than another? Vesta Properties, an award-winning developer and builder with more than 25 years of experience, shares tips on how to choose the perfect floorplan. CONSIDER YOUR LIFESTYLE
Take a moment to consider what is important to your family. “At Vesta, we spend countless hours perfecting the design of our homes to ensure they meet the needs and lifestyles of our homebuyers,” says Christine Turner, Vesta Properties’ marketing manager. Think about what you and your family may need to create a comfortable home, such as what are the hotspots of your home? Can you help the kids with homework while cooking dinner? What will life look like when you are traversing stairs as you age? LOVE TO ENTERTAIN?
While you visualize having a few people over on your patio be sure to consider larger parties. Plan for mingling, eating, serving and maybe dancing too! The flow from room to room, and from indoors to outdoor decks and patios should be easy and intuitive. EXPERIENCE THE FLOORPLAN
If possible, walk through the developer’s display unit. Try your best 60 NextHome.ca | Richmond / North Delta / Tsawwassen
to ignore the finishes of the home and focus on the layout and flow. If you can’t experience the plan directly, try visualizing a walk through, opening doors – is there enough space for this room’s function? Will there be enough natural light? “Bright open layouts are essential. High ceilings and large windows will ensure an abundance of natural light,” adds Turner.
ASK THE EXPERTS
While looking at a floorplan may be second nature for design professionals, it may be difficult for homebuyers to visualize what doors, windows and stairs will look like. Don’t make the mistake of assuming – reach out to your developer for suggestions and insight. Go to gvhba.org to find more new home resources today.
THINK ABOUT THE ORIENTATION
Be sure to check the location of the unit relative to the property’s orientation. While you may love the layout of the master bedroom in a model home, remember, it will be in a different location with a different view; for example, Vesta’s Lattice² is situated on the site in such a way that it maximizes vistas of the Milner Valley.

CANADA NEAR TOP IN SURVEY OF GLOBAL HOME & CONDO PRICES Canadian cities rank in the top 15 most expensive housing markets in the world, according to a new Century 21 Canada survey of home and condo prices in 75 global markets. It’s no surprise that Toronto and Vancouver were ranked high, with the Montreal housing market just missing the top 15, ranking 19th for condos and 18th for single-family homes. The survey listed the average cost of a condo in downtown Toronto as $833.20 per sq. ft., and compared that price to Tokyo, where the cost of a condo is $775.72 per sq. ft. For a singlefamily home in Toronto, the report listed the price as $594.65 per sq. ft., comparable to a single-family home in Weisbaden, Germany at $635.35 per sq. ft. In West Vancouver, the data revealed that a single-family home
is closely equated to San Francisco, averaging $824.47 per sq. ft. and $934.96 per sq. ft., respectively, while a condo in downtown Vancouver comes in at $1,172.80 per sq. ft., compared to $1,454.57 per sq. ft. in San Francisco. The cost of a single-family home in Vancouver is $824.47 per sq. ft., comparable to Singapore at 921.48 per sq. ft. In the Montreal market, the price per sq. ft. for a single-family home at $519.51 is most closely comparable to New York City, at $508.62 per sq. ft., while a condo in Montreal sells for $538.73 per sq. ft., just behind Hod Hasharon, Israel with $544.50 per sq. ft. Hong Kong was ranked as the most expensive city to purchase property, with the average single-family home in the Kowloon area priced at $3,570.23 per sq. ft. This is 3.5 times more

expensive than Beijing, the second most expensive city, at $1,005.31 per sq. ft. for a single-family home. In Hong Kong itself, condos are priced at $2,330.21 per sq. ft. These numbers are the result of a recent Century 21 Canada survey of 75 cities in 27 countries detailing the average price per sq. ft. for a home, and found that generally, the price per sq. ft. is higher for a condo than for a single-family home. “Canada’s housing market has attracted much attention over the past few years. These numbers show just how we rank on a global scale,” says Brian Rushton, Century 21 Canada executive vice-president. “While prices are no doubt expensive, we really rank in the middle of the pack when compared to other global cities.”

THE LAST WORD
Q+A WITH CALUM ROSS, WEALTH PLANNER AND MORTGAGE BROKER, THE MORTGAGE MANAGEMENT GROUP, AND AUTHOR by WAYNE KARL
to make a profit with a short-term hold cycle. My advice is always do the math. Understand the theoretical cost benefit of renting versus buying, and then make the most informed decision possible. The decision to buy or rent for personal use should be driven primarily by your family needs. If your home equity is your most valuable asset, then you need to reweight your asset allocation and fire your financial planner. I never see a very wealthy client with personal use real estate as the biggest part of their balance sheet. When I see someone with an expensive home and cottage, and the value outweighing other investment holdings, I immediately worry for their financial well-being as those represent high cost items (even without a mortgage) and can put a lot of strain on household income. Ironically, my wealthy real estate investors as a whole tend to have considerably cheaper principal residences than my other high net worth clients. NextHome: In its latest Housing Trends and Affordability Report, Royal Bank says housing affordability in Canada in the second quarter hit the worst level since 1990. How would you advise prospective homebuyers? Calum Ross: I wouldn’t advise them
any differently than I would have in the past. Predicting interest rates and real estate market conditions in the long run is an impossible task. If you have a long-term hold piece of real 74 NextHome.ca | Surrey / Langley / Abbotsford / Mission
estate, don’t be overly concerned with values. As we see interest rates rise, real assets prices (including real estate) tend to go down. However, most people seem to forget that real estate prices tend to rise quickly, but tend to be very sticky on the way down. The reality is that a home should be shelter first and I personally don’t view my principal residence as investment. Even in periods of rising real estate values, it is difficult
NH: After years of historical low rates,
the Bank of Canada has raised its overnight rate target twice in recent months. Are the days of low rates over? CR: Answering this question worries me, as it is astonishing that people have lost a real perspective on historical interest rate realities when they consider current rates as anything other than extremely low. …continued on page 76

NH: As mortgage rates rise, who’s
most at risk – homeowners with variable rate mortgages? CR: Selecting a fixed or variable rate mortgage is not something we suggest you do for a fit today (or over the next month or so), but something you select as fit for your financial philosophy and long-term objectives. You must be able to weather the good and bad to yield long-term benefits and costs on both sides of the spectrum of choices. Choosing between a variable and fixed mortgage is easily the most debated mortgage question. There is no clear-cut answer, as it depends on the market at any given time, your risk tolerance and personal financial goals. A variable mortgage is just that – it fluctuates with market interest rates. It might not make sense for someone who would prefer the peace of mind that comes with a fixed mortgage payment. A variable mortgage would make more sense, however, for someone who is more concerned with freeing up cash flow. Historically, variable rates have proven less expensive over mortgage 76 NextHome.ca | Surrey / Langley / Abbotsford / Mission
terms than fixed rates, but current market conditions may not warrant reflection on the long-term historical perspective. The spread (difference) between variable and fixed rates is smaller than “normal,” and the consensus amongst economists is that interest rates will continue to rise. What this means to mortgage consumers is that there is not as much of a payoff for taking variable, and the deck predicting rate direction is heavily stacked against you with interest rate futures predicting more rate increase. NH: You recently said “neither our
government nor Canadian consumers can afford too much of a rate increase too fast – they are both in far too much debt.” That doesn’t sound good for the long term for either party… What’s the solution? CR: The solution is based on stronger savings rates and a greater aversion for bad debt (debt that is not used for active wealth accumulation). There is just no way that our provincial and federal governments can continue to run deficits without our country meeting a similar fate to Greece in the
long-run. Respectfully, there wouldn’t even be a remote chance that the Province of Ontario would qualify for even a subprime mortgage… and that should make people pause to think! Make no mistake about it: Our government policies are absolutely putting our country at risk of being unable to borrow money, downgrading our public-sector debts which would in the long term negatively impact our currency and severely impact the stability of our economy. When it comes to consumers and consumer debt – the real safety comes from their household balance sheets. While household debts are at all-time highs, so are household net worth levels. In real terms, this means that if put under payment shock from rising interest rates then, while not ideal, they could liquidate assets and retire part or all their debts, which would allow a structural re-shift in payments and thus allow for a full crisis to be averted in most cases.
