Increased sales attributed to better financial standing

Luxury homes in demand says RE/MAX Luxury home sales are on the rise due to an improved financial standing among some Canadians, according to a report by RE/MAX. RE/MAX looked at 12 major cities in Canada, and found that sales have surged in close to two-thirds of housing markets between January 1 and April 30, compared to the same time period last year. Vancouver led the pack with a 118 per cent increase, followed by Ottawa (59 per cent) and Calgary (51 per cent). Part of this was due to high foreign investment, particularly in Greater Vancouver, which attracts a large number of people of Asian descent. “The strength of the upper-end segment continues to defy expectations,” says Elton Ash, Regional Executive Vice-President of

RE/MAX of Western Canada. “That demand remains largely domestic speaks to the solid underpinnings of the market, while underscoring the appeal of Canadian real estate on an international stage. Western Canada, in particular, will continue to see the upside benefit of investment from abroad.” RE/MAX cites a number of factors that make Canada attractive to foreign buyers, including its high quality of living, political and economic stability and the strength of its property laws. Despite the financial crisis in 2008 and 2009, RE/MAX states that most millionaire portfolios and assets have improved or exceeded pre-downturn levels, and real estate is a popular choice due to its sense of tangibility.

Golf course living

Tsawwassen Springs not only a golfer’s paradise by Kerry Vital

As you drive into Tsawwassen Springs on a sunny day, you see the North Shore mountains to the right, and the rolling greens of the golf course all around you. You breathe in the fresh air, and smile as the sun hits your face. This is home; this is the perfect place to be. Built by Shato Holdings in partnership with Talisman Homes, Tsawwassen Springs will encompass 296 condominiums and 194 detached houses. The project is surrounded by the former Tsawwassen Golf and Country Club, now turned into a 137acre public all-season golf course. “Everything you’d want is in this development,” says Managing Director of Shato Holdings Ron Toigo. Tsawwassen Springs will eventually include a 32,000-square-foot clubhouse, a neighbourhood grocery story and a cafe. The clubhouse will include a fitness centre and spa, pro shop, a restaurant and pub, and a banquet facility. Around the property, there will be a tennis court, a driving range, a community garden, a play area for kids, and an outdoor ice rink for the winter months. That ice rink comes as no surprise, since hockey is very important to the investors at Tsawwassen Springs (in fact, the recent grand opening was pushed back by a day to accommodate

‘‘

To be surrounded by this is really quite magical,” says Tsawwassen Springs investor Bruce Allen. a Vancouver Canucks playoff game.) Toigo is the majority owner of the Vancouver Giants, and investors in the project include former Canucks coach Pat Quinn and singer Michael Buble, both of whom are investors in the Vancouver Giants. The other investor is music manager Bruce Allen. “You don’t have to be a golfer to

live here,” says Toigo. “People love the attributes that come with (living at Tsawwassen Springs) ... There’s no place like it.” Homes at Tsawwassen Springs aren’t skimpy on the amazing features. Every residence features large outdoor decks or patios, which come with built-in natural gas hookups for barbecues and outdoor gas heaters perfect for summer entertaining. Each home also comes with a parking stall wired with an outlet to charge an electric car or golf cart (some condos, and the singlefamily homes, have space for more than one vehicle.) Greatness is a big thing at the development, down to the smallest design detail. Nothing is bigger than the inspiration for the homes: the world of Disney. The condo units are a take-off of the Grand Floridian hotel at Walt Disney World, and the single-family homes are inspired by the accommodations at the Torrey Pines Golf Course in California, Toigo says. Inside, every residence features an expansive great room, ready for gatherings of all sizes. Condos have nine-foot ceilings, and single-family

homes feature 10-foot ceilings. Every home comes with oversized windows, which maximizes the natural light throughout and adds to that feeling of tranquility that so many people look for when choosing a place to live. Homeowners can decide between three interior design palettes, and rich engineered hardwood floors are included in the entry, kitchen and great room to add that elegant final touch. Granite countertops are included in the bathrooms and kitchen, and the floor of the ensuite bathroom is heated for those cold winter mornings. With all of those features and more, Tsawwassen Springs might end up being home to the investors too. “I’ll probably (buy here),” Buble laughs. “I’m scared of my wife and she wants a place here.” Quinn agrees, saying he is trying to convince his own wife to move there. “What could be better than living in the centre of a golf course?” Allen says. “To be surrounded by this is really quite magical.” Homes at Tsawwassen Springs start at $369,000.
