spaces that are large, bright, and functionally elegant. We even
encourage all homeowners to make their homes their very own
with varieties of fl oor plans, elevations, colours, dcors, and

Smaller households, smaller homes
City of Champions once again
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.
While the majority of Canadian
homes over the last century were
built to support larger families,
nowadays one or two people make
up the majority of households. This
is why condominium living have
become increasingly popular.
The impact of smaller families on
the Canadian housing market has
been signifi cant, spurring a dramatic
change in the types of homes and
apartments being constructed.
The introduction of townhomes,
lofts and condominiums is e ectively
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.
Edmontons re-crowning as the
City of Champions, thanks to
the Eskimos recent Grey Cup
championship, comes at the
perfect time.
It wasnt the easiest of years, 2015,
with challenges brought on by the
slumping oil and gas sector. But,
Edmontonians know the outstanding
value of real estate in this city.
A resilient economy, infrastructure
improvements, forward-thinking
economic development and housing
a ordability are among the citys
attributes. This last point cannot
be overstated; Edmonton may
not boast the double-digit value
appreciations of other markets, but
housing here is among the most
a ordable in Canada.
Heres to more championship
moments in 2016.

Smaller households, smaller homes
City of Champions once again
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.
While the majority of Canadian
homes over the last century were
built to support larger families,
nowadays one or two people make
up the majority of households. This
is why condominium living have
become increasingly popular.
The impact of smaller families on
the Canadian housing market has
been signifi cant, spurring a dramatic
change in the types of homes and
apartments being constructed.
The introduction of townhomes,
lofts and condominiums is e ectively
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.
Edmontons re-crowning as the
City of Champions, thanks to
the Eskimos recent Grey Cup
championship, comes at the
perfect time.
It wasnt the easiest of years, 2015,
with challenges brought on by the
slumping oil and gas sector. But,
Edmontonians know the outstanding
value of real estate in this city.
A resilient economy, infrastructure
improvements, forward-thinking
economic development and housing
a ordability are among the citys
attributes. This last point cannot
be overstated; Edmonton may
not boast the double-digit value
appreciations of other markets, but
housing here is among the most
a ordable in Canada.
Heres to more championship
moments in 2016.

Recreational lake front property has long been exclusively thought of as a summer treat. From that first warm weekend at the end of May, residents of cottage country do their best to squeeze in as much time at the lake before the leaves and snow fall.There is, however, a new development in Alberta that offers the exclusive benefits of lakeside living
year-round. Whether prospective buyers are looking for a weekend retreat or a permanent residence, The Estates at Waters Edge offers unique, single-family homes to accommodate a range of budgets and lifestyles.
This secure, gated development is situated 45 minutes west of Edmonton on the shore of Lac St. Anne. As a perennial community equipped with resort-style amenities, residents enjoy the beauty that every season has to offer. Summer activities include water sports, fishing, walking, biking, or golfing at a nearby course. New for 2016 is the addition of a heated pool! A fully equipped fitness building is now up and running for residents to use and enjoy. Winter brings its own selection of outdoor ac-tivities, including snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and ice fishing. For skating and hockey enthusiasts, there is an outdoor NHL-sized ice rink, complete with a skate change and warm-up
facility. Access to a private boat launch and a maintained marina allows for carefree boating enjoyment. For social gatherings, a club-house, featuring a kitchen, dining area and games room, can accom-modate gatherings both small and large.
Home designs are created in-house by the Waters Edge Archi-tecture Team to keep turn-around time to a minimum. Most home builders charge a fee for any changes to their plans, however, this service is complementary for buyers who choose to build with Waters Edge. Owners can also choose to purchase an undeveloped lot and construct with their preferred builder as long as the proposed design fits within the architectural and landscaping guidelines.
Waters Edge homes have been designed in a timeless Craftsman-style and are available in an array of two to four bedroom floor plans ranging from 1,150 to 2,500+ sq.ft.. Layouts and room sizes are completely customizable to ensure that each plan meets the buyers needs. Yards are fully landscaped and can include a choice of parking pad, attached or detached garage. A variety of high-quality interior finishing packages are also available and owners can rest easy knowing that their residence comes with a 10-year Progressive Home Warranty to ensure the highest home construction quality.
Lot prices start in the low $100,000s, and two bedroom residences with completely landscaped lots start in the low $300,000s.
Two brand new showhomes are now open and available for immediate possession. Contact Mike at 780-405-6378 or 1-877-405-1105 or visit watersedgeestates.ca for more information.

The great rate advantage for homebuyers SOMETIMES, NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS.
Interest rates dont make news these
days because the Bank of Canada
has kept levels at near-records for
months. Thats very good news for
every Edmontonian with a mortgage
or considering buying a home.
Major fi nancial institutions are
o ering fi ve-year mortgages with
fi xed rates less than three per cent.
That looks like a steal of a deal,
compared to times when rates on
the same term topped 15 per cent.
Despite regular rumblings in the
media about how higher interest
rates could be just around the
corner, most analysts dont see any
changes coming until the middle
of 2017, and then any increases will
be modest compared to historic
standards.
Even that possibility seems more
remote with the Bank of Canadas
announcement on Dec. 8 that it is
open to the possibility of lowering
interest rates even more to stimulate
the economy.
This gives homebuyers an
enormous opportunity to pay down
debt and build their own net worth
at a pace that would make previous
generations green with envy.
Mortgage rates are an especially
important consideration for fi rst-time
homebuyers because debt levels are
at their highest levels right after the
purchase.
Locking in low rates also takes
a lot of the guesswork out of a
budget because a major portion of
the monthly expenses is set for a
signifi cant time period.
Low interest rates are one factor helping to sustain Edmontons resilient
housing market even with lower oil prices.
Construction of single-family homes has dipped from last years levels
but it is important to keep in mind that 2014 was one of the strongest in
Edmontons history and the highest total in seven years. Metro Edmonton is
on track to fi nish this year with close to 6,000 new single-family homes under
construction which equals or betters the totals over most of the last six years.
Each of those homes represents an investment decision by an Edmonton
family that looked at the own fi nancial prospects and opportunities in todays
less heated housing market.
The advantages of new homes have also never been clearer. Carbon
taxes coming to Alberta starting in 2017 will raise energy costs for all energy
consumers and that includes higher costs for home heating, hot water and
electricity.
Each generation of homes is more energy e cient thanks to building codes
that continually push up standards. Besides lowering greenhouse gas emissions
and fi ghting climate change, the energy e ciency of new homes will pay o
for years to come through lower bills for natural gas and electricity.
To learn more about the advantages of new homes, check out the consumer
resources on the CHBA Edmonton Region website. Its also where you can fi nd
CHBA members with the experience and expertise to guide you through your
purchase.

In the west end, there are few communities that
offer new housing with the essential elements we all
appreciate. For this reason, Rohit Land Development
is proud to announce their latest development,
Timberidge at Edgemont, one of Edmontons newest
west end communities. In October of 2015, three
premium builders unveiled seven stunning showhomes
that present options for every type of buyer. These
products include single family homes (with both rear
and front attached garage options), duplexes (with
both rear and front attached garage options) and
starter single family homes, which allow new home
buyers an attractive and affordable choice.
Our duplexes are designed with a Big Home Concept,
said Amy Power, Marketing Manager for Rohit
Communities. By combining front attached garage
with rear detached garage homes, the duplex appears
as a large single home from the street while actually
housing two unique dwellings. The result is outstanding
curb appeal.
Tucked away in its own enclave, next to a forest fit for
family outdoor activities, Timberidge at Edgemont is a
small walkable community that promotes a sense
of belonging among its residents. For
active types, an abundance of walking
and biking trails are available at
your doorstep, including a three
metre wide shared-use path.
West Edmonton Mall, The
Edmonton Valley Zoo, and
Lewis Estates Golf Course
are only a few of the many
amenities that are just
minutes away from this new
west-end neighbourhood. With
schools and shopping so
close to home, Timberidge
offers the perfect recipe for
you to build on. The only missing
ingredient is you!
Located on 199 Street and Elston Gate, just
off of Lessard Road, Timberidge at Edgemont is
ideal for accessibility, with reliable transit options
surrounding the community. Minutes from both
Anthony Henday Drive and the Whitemud Freeway,
a home in Timberidge means convenience.
Dolce Vita Homes is excited to be a part of the
Timberidge builder group, says Aron Scraba,
Director of Marketing for Dolce Vita Homes. This area
has been highly anticipated. We broke ground on our
first home there in March and our showhome opened in
August. Timberidge is a perfect family community with
a prime west location.
Today, approximately 170,000 Edmontonians call the
west end home. Its THE place to bea place anyone
could easily make their home and build their legacy.
Timberidge at Edgemont is the newest place in West
Edmonton. With all of the ingredients it offers
to make your lifes recipe complete, it could be where
you invent the new you!

A home-cooked meal with the perfectly designed recipe can create a sense of satisfaction that is shared, enjoyed,
and passed on to future generations as a legacy. Finding
those ingredients that are so carefully selected to create
harmony in a meal can be a difficult process. Certainly, it
can be rewarding when you find the ideal combination.
Just like discovering your new favourite recipe for a
home-cooked meal, finding a new home takes thoughtful
consideration of all of the essential elements that will
allow you to live comfortably and with pride.
In the west end, there are few communities that
offer new housing with the essential elements we all
appreciate. For this reason, Rohit Land Development
is proud to announce their latest development,
Timberidge at Edgemont, one of Edmontons newest
west end communities. In October of 2015, three
premium builders unveiled seven stunning showhomes
that present options for every type of buyer. These
products include single family homes (with both rear
and front attached garage options), duplexes (with
both rear and front attached garage options) and
starter single family homes, which allow new home
buyers an attractive and affordable choice.
Our duplexes are designed with a Big Home Concept,
said Amy Power, Marketing Manager for Rohit
Communities. By combining front attached garage
with rear detached garage homes, the duplex appears
as a large single home from the street while actually
housing two unique dwellings. The result is outstanding
curb appeal.
Tucked away in its own enclave, next to a forest fit for
family outdoor activities, Timberidge at Edgemont is a
small walkable community that promotes a sense
of belonging among its residents. For
active types, an abundance of walking
and biking trails are available at
your doorstep, including a three
metre wide shared-use path.
West Edmonton Mall, The
Edmonton Valley Zoo, and
Lewis Estates Golf Course
are only a few of the many
amenities that are just
minutes away from this new
west-end neighbourhood. With
schools and shopping so
close to home, Timberidge
offers the perfect recipe for
you to build on. The only missing

THIS YEAR WAS a notable one in the
mortgage world: The Bank of Canada
dropped its infl uential overnight
target rate not once, but twice.
In its latest announcement on
Dec. 2, the BoC held the rate at 0.50
per cent where it had been since
July after dropping it from 0.75,
where it had been since January
2015 when the Bank dropped it from
one per cent.
Just a bunch of numbers, right?
Perhaps, but some experts are now
saying rates wont begin to inch
up from these historical lows until
mid-2017. This means an extended
window of opportunity for those
looking for a home.
If you could lock in at a low rate
over 10 years, for example, that gives
you the comfort of knowing what
your mortgage payments will be
over that period, while over that time
you can also take advantage of any
pre-payment and lump-sum payment
options to pay down your mortgage.
Another appeal of this scenario
is that, as we often point out,
experts advise you take a long-
term view of your home purchase.
For example, some markets have
recently experienced cooling prices
and softening sales. But even if
that were to happen in your market
and housing type, ask yourself: in
10 years, is a home you buy today
likely to be worth more or less? If
you need an answer to this question,
just take a look back at prices 10
years ago. Of course, there are
no guarantees, but if youre in the
homebuying mode anyway, todays
low rate environment makes a pretty
Window of opportunityMortgage rates remain at historical lows, so take advantage while you can but carefully

compelling reason to act sooner
than later to take advantage of these
opportunities.
Low rates notwithstanding, the
banks, fi nancial fi rms, brokers and
other experts still advise homebuyers
to practice smart borrowing.
Experts stress that even as rates
remain low, buyers should explore
everything from putting down a larger
down payment to taking advantage
of pre-payment options to stress-
testing your mortgage at a higher
rate to ensure your fi nances can
accommodate rate fl uctuations or
other unforeseen circumstances.
One day, the mortgage landscape
will change. And if youre among
those homeowners who have been
somewhat spoiled by continuing low
rates, you could be could be in for an
unpleasant surprise.
Take advantage of todays low
rates while you can, but also spend
the time necessary to fi nd a broker
or banker you trust, who knows
their business, and who can help
you explore what options might be
best for you.
More so than in any other area of
homebuying, youre going to rely on
this advice now more than ever. It
will prove to be time well spent.
