HOW TECHNOLOGY IS RESHAPING THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY
TIM NG
Change is good. Technology is making it easier for Canadians to become homeowners and real estate investors. It’s also improving the efficiency of how we build houses and how energy efficient they are for the occupants. That’s a win-win situation.
During the pandemic, we learned that you can buy almost anything
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Canada is a global hub for tech, so it makes sense that the country is becoming an incubator for real estate innovation. Here are my thoughts on some of the Proptech collective’s key findings.
Online tools such as building information monitoring (BIM) enable architects, engineers, developers, contractors and all other parties involved in constructing a building to work collaboratively on one platform.
Today, there are entirely new financing options, from co-ownership and rent-to-own models to crowdfunding. With the co-ownership and rent-to-own models, buyers partner with an investment company that will eventually transfer ownership.
Collectively, heat and cooling our homes is one of the largest annual consumers of energy in Canada. So, building new housing that is as energy efficient as possible, and renovating existing housing to bring it up to modern standards, are essential to meeting our national climate changeTechnologygoals.
With crowdfunding, multiple individuals invest in a property and share the Combined,equity.these options open up the world of real estate ownership and investment to a wider market.

online. That’s spilling over into real estate as well. Developers, realtors and purchasers are increasingly using software that handles digital signing to complete sales, instead of requiring in-person signatures. It was a great social distancing measure, but is also a much more efficient use of everyone’s time.
Traditionally, to get a mortgage, you would go to your bank or credit union and apply for one. Savvy buyers knew that a mortgage broker could shop around on their behalf for the best rates available. But that was about it.
Builders are also using drones and satellite imagery for everything from site surveys to jobsite safety.

MORTGAGE TRIGGER POINTS
• Trigger rate: When the interest rate increases to the point that your regular principal and interest payments no longer cover the interest charged, interest is deferred, and the principal balance (total cost) can increase until it hits the trigger point.
• Variable-rate mortgage (VRM): When the prime rate changes, your rate changes. When interest rates change, typically, your payments will stay the same.

As the Bank of Canada keeps increasing the overnight key lending rate, there is more talk about mortgage trigger points. The question is, what does this and other mortgage-specific terms mean?

to increase the amortization period, you will need to increase your payment.
3. Make a lump sum payment: Depending on your lender’s prepayment policy, you can make a lump sum payment up to 20 per cent of your original mortgage amount without paying a penalty.
mortgage payment consists of two components: your principal and your interest. This means that with the existing rate and further increases expected, the amount paid towards the principal decreases with an increase in the amount of interest being paid. For example, if your mortgage payment is $2,000 per month, only $200 goes toward the principal, while the rest covers the interest. An additional interest rate increase means that your interest portion will increase again and may exceed your total payment. When this happens, it is called hitting your trigger rate.

4. Switch to a fixed-rate mortgage: Some borrowers are choosing to switch to a fixed-rate mortgage.

If this happens to you, you won’t be the only homeowner who reaches their trigger rate and so it’s good to know what you can do to mitigate the situation.
WHAT HAPPENS IF BORROWERS REACH THEIR TRIGGER RATE?
This is how you can calculate your trigger rate: (payment amount x number of payments per year / balance owing) x100) to get your trigger rate in percentage.
1. You can adjust your payment: You can choose to adjust your payment amount to ensure that you still have funds going towards your principal balance.
Inflation has most likely reached its peak, yet we are still dealing with the effects before things balance out. Plus, there are still some final rate hikes expected to come between now and the end of the year from the Bank of Canada. It is important to be aware that because of this, many borrowers with variable rate mortgages will be getting near their mortgage trigger points.
2. Review your amortization schedule: You can consider increasing your amortization period up to 30 years, as long as you have equity in your home. Increasing your amortization period means your mortgage payments will decrease. If you are unable

CIVIC ELECTIONS
In the last round of municipal elections, an average of only 34 per cent of eligible voters across Metro Vancouver cast ballots, and several municipalities saw voter turnout at less than 25 per cent. The support for elected officials is typically in the range of 15 per cent or less, and the margin of victory in many Metro races has been measured as close as two to four votes. In some instances, mayors,
It has been said before, but cannot be understated, that municipal government and policy have the most direct and profound influence on our day-to-day lives. This Oct. 15, municipal elections will be taking place across B.C. to choose mayors, councils and other municipal officers.

We have seen housing issues within our cities rise to “crisis” levels regarding affordability and choices to meet the needs of a growing and shifting population. Demand is as high, or higher, than it ever has been with immigration, inter-provincial migration and new household formations driving the need for more supply. Increasing the supply
of housing has long been debated, and while not the only factor in establishing an affordable housing market, it is a prerequisite. It is now widely accepted that we are suffering from a “structural housing shortage”, and both the federal and provincial governments have adopted plans to increase and expedite supply.

Many councils are deeply fragmented and are often pursuing a course of action that is politically motivated, or unduly influenced by special interests that do not represent most voters, and do not reflect the best long-term interests of the community, good planning or good design.

In many jurisdictions, the number of candidates running for mayor and or councils are quite large, which further sows confusion, fragments the vote and could allow candidates with very thin levels of support to prevail. Therefore, it is essential that voters engage in the municipal election process to become acquainted with the positions and platforms of candidates and make informed decisions on those who would best represent their interests and those of the community. It cannot be understated – ensure your vote is counted in these elections. Your vote counts. Your vote matters.
This means that municipal leadership is often representing the perspectives of only one out every six voters – by no means a majority —but these officials dictate the direction of their cities and determine the policies that directly affect our lives.

While it’s important to stay informed on month-to-month changes, it’s necessary to get a clear picture of how the cycle and its four phases of recovery, expansion, hyper supply and recession,Whetherwork.you’re a homebuyer, home seller, real estate agent, or real estate investor, understanding this cycle will help you predict upcoming trends and make informed decisions. Here, we dive into the historical numbers and give some perspective to any buyer looking at entering the market.
mArket cycles And recovering from A doWnturn Market cycles have evolved in recent times. In comparing modern to past, a key difference in today’s cycles rests in the typical speed with which information is disseminated. Today’s buyers are increasingly well-informed and inundated daily with news via a myriad of channels. This creates faster changes and reactions than seen in the past. With rising inflation and slowing demand, we are beginning to see the reaction of hesitancy within the Metro Vancouver market. It’s common to be asked: in this market, when is the right time to buy? How
In current market conditions, it’s easy to be consumed by negative headlines on the news that focuses on the shift in today’s housing market. However, it’s crucial to take a step back and look at the larger picture, one that observes the larger flow of modern-day market cycles. The real estate cycle is a four-phase pattern
peaks and valleys, the long game still pays off. As with any investment, there are always risks, but as three years turns into four, five, six or more years of ownership, your value of return is even greater. As an additional example, even those who purchased at the previous peak in 2016 have seen a 17 per cent appreciation since their investment was made.
with. Ultimately, it is best answered on an individual level, as each potential buyer has different advantages and setbacks. What can be applied to all those considering a home purchase is the rule that it’s not all about when you buy, but instead, about how long you hold onto your investment. As Ryan Lalonde, president of MLA Canada shared in the August edition of the MLA Pre-Sale Pulse on the status of the market: rather than the timing of the market, is the single greatest natural advantage an investor has. To drive home this truth, we can look to benchmark prices across Metro Vancouver, specifically focusing on the last 10 years.

long will it take for our market to recover from this downtown? If we look at price alone, we can find two key periods of compressing values in this market: the financial crisis in 2008 and the decline from 2018 to 2020. It took prices about three years to recover from their previous peak. While this may seem like a long time, it’s a shorter timeframe than the typical presale construction period for new homes. With this knowledge, we can assert that even in a declined market, buyers can be confident that the value they lock in at will be consistent with, or better than, market pricing for new homes when they complete after a build-out of two to three years.
This is one of the most challenging questions that homebuyers are faced
A conversation on the best timing to purchase, and what type of home to purchase right now, would not be complete without addressing construction costs. Construction costs have been steadily increasing and show no signs of slowing.
When is the right time to buy?
If you purchased a home at any time during this period, and held onto it for at least three years, you saw, on average, a 22 per cent price appreciation. Despite short-term
Purchasing a pre-sale home can help offset future increases as the purchase is locked in at today’s construction costs. By purchasing at presale now, a buyer can prevent added rising costs and can benefit from the price appreciation seen during the build-out phase. In all likelihood, those beginning a mortgage in a few years when their pre-sale home is complete, will find themselves at a more favourable interest rate as rates ease over the next three to five years. Overall, a pre-sale buyer is in a strong position in today’s market cycle, locking in the value and allowing the investment to appreciate during the construction phase.

DF: There’s no question home prices will continue to go up. Hard costs—things like concrete, framing material or roofing—have been rising steadily for a number of years. That’s definitely impacting what consumers will need to pay. But if you look at something like one appliance package versus another of similar quality, it probably isn’t going to make a difference of more than a couple of thousand dollars. So no, it’s unlikely buyers will end up needing to compromise on the finishing details they want.
The biggest thing that will have a positive impact on affordability is getting elected officials who see the need for more supply. Estimates

The construction process typically takes a lot longer than many people realize, especially when it’s a multi-family project. Acquiring the land, getting necessary zoning and approvals, designing the buildings and then actually building them can, and most often does, take many years.

Fabric is tactile, and as such, the feel of lush velvets, the beauty of some richly woven silks and the simplicity and texture of coarsely woven linen accompanied by rich, saturated colours is enough to inspire anyone to decorate. However, the question is: With all these fabrics and patterns to select from, how do you know what works together to achieve that “designer look” in your home?

Fall is almost here, and with it traditionally comes a new array of wonderfully stylish inspiring fabrics bursting with colours, textures and some of the most incredible patterns.
The first pattern selection should be your most impactful one, so choose carefully and select a pattern that is larger scaled. The second pattern should be completely different, about half the scale of the first one and have some of the same colours incorporated throughout. For the third selection, it can be smaller scale and similar in pattern to either of the first two, with at least two to three of the same colours.

When combining and layering patterns, it’s important to balance them throughout your space. The last thing you want is to create a situation where the heavier weight of patterns are all at one end of the room. They should be well proportioned with solids and any other visible patterns in your room, such as area rugs, wall coverings and fireplace surrounds, to provide equilibrium and an esthetically pleasing look. Also, when pairing up your choices, it’s important to consider the “feel” of the fabrics you are selecting. Are they formal or more Dabblingcasual?inpattern blending can be fun, and fabrics can make a bold statement in your home. Mixing fabrics like a pro is all about balance, layering and blending. When it’s done well, contrasting patterns and textures can elevate your space beyond the typical to a fresh, innovative and welcoming
To successfully mix patterns in your space, remember to vary the scale of the patterns from small to large, as well as to maintain the same depth or magnitude of colour. By that, I mean if you’re working with primary colours, try not to incorporate fabrics that are pastels, as you will inevitably create an imbalance. Generally, if you start with blending a minimum of three fabric patterns, you shouldn’t have any problems.
Just remember to keep a common element throughout and then watch your home come alive.
For example, if you have selected a large scale floral as your first pattern, the second could be a bold stripe or a geometric fretwork pattern, and then blend in another small scale floral for the third, or an alternative smaller geometric. Consider adding another pattern or two, or three, if you wish; maybe a small check, a dot is always favourable, or something in a solid small scale texture. If you’re more adventurous, consider throwing an animal print into the mix for a bit of fun.

Consider the colour and shape when picking a modern tile for your bathroom. Geometric-shaped tiles will add depth to the room; rectangular (subway) tiles are a modern fave and help to achieve a streamlined look. And, of course, keeping the colour choice monochromatic will help your space look sleek and cool.

Terrazzo
Bathroom tile trends to suit your style
Did you know that terrazzo tile is a composite material of marble chippings set into cement? Experts believe terrazzo originated in 15-century Italy (invited by the Venetians) to reuse stone offcuts. Could terrazzo be the OG of sustainable flooring? Either way, the beautiful tile will add a creative dose of pattern and colour to any bathroom space.
Choosing the right finishes can really elevate your bathroom experience (hello at-home spa!). Picking the right tile for your space plays a crucial role in the look and feel of your finished bathroom, so choose wisely. You may regret it if you don’t.

Whimsical
Not for the faint of heart, these bold tiles are sure to make a statement! When working with this style of tile, keep your accessories and wall colour neutral. This allows the tiles to pop, but also doesn’t overwhelm the space.
Marble
You can’t get more classic and luxe than using marble in the bathroom. This durable stone comes in various colours contrasted with beautiful natural veining. Use marble in the bathroom to create a high-impact look, but remember, to keep up the high-end esthetic, it needs to be properly maintained and sealed.

Transport yourself to the south of Spain with encaustic tiles that will bring a hit of warmth and joy to any bathroom space. Look for tiles that have a lively pattern and that closely ressembles vintage – this will give your bathroom an authentic look.

“West Village is definitely evolving into one of Surrey’s hot spots,” says Eric Andreasen, Adera’s Vice President of Marketing and Sales . “There’s an active, youthful vibe here that makes it a place people of all generations want to live. And even though you’re just a short stroll from Surrey’s downtown core as well as not one, but two SkyTrain stations, there’s still a quiet, residential ambience.”
“We definitely believe mass timber, including cross laminate timber (CLT), is the building material of the future,” Eric says. “It performs as well as concrete and steel, if not better, and it’s quieter and more affordable. It’s also a carbon sequestering material, meaning reduced off-gassing, in addition to having an enhanced acoustical performance.”

Picture this: an uber-chic home in the heart of Surrey’s sparkling West Village neighbourhood; a diverse array of amenities that focus on wellness and a hip, balanced lifestyle; and mass-timber construction, a product that’s sustainable, environmentally friendly, and looks… well it’s exquisitely beautiful.
Now say hello to PURA, 248 condominium homes in two buildings that are linked together by a social plaza with plenty of outdoor lounge seating, a curved pergola, and a distinctly playful outlook.
CONTACT livepura.ca or info@livepura.ca
Long known as a leader and innovator in mass-timber construction, Adera will be introducing its proprietary SmartWood to Surrey at PURA.
SMARTWOOD® STYLE
Right at home you’ll discover a fitness and yoga meditation zone, a children’s outdoor play area, bike repair and wash stations, a dog wash — because every canine family member will always love rolling around in “stuff”— and a DIY workshop for when you feel like taking up a new craft or simply puttering with a few repairs. And when you feel like hosting friends and family, your toughest decision may be whether to meet in PURA’s party room or on the spacious rooftop deck with dazzling sunset views.
Adera is also excited to announce PURA will be Surrey’s first community designed to achieve Fitwel Certification, a globally recognized, third-party certification for enhanced wellness.
PURA offers 248 mass-timber condominiums ranging from one-bedroom to two-bedroom and den, starting from the mid-$300,000s. Presentation centre opens soon at 102 – 13734 – 104th Avenue in Central Surrey. Visit livepura.ca for more information and to priority register. But hurry, because VIP previews start soon, and you’ll want to check out this property ahead of the public opening on Sept. 24.
Loving the new telecommuting work routine? Well, when you feel like a change of scene, there’s even an airy, sun-drenched co-working lounge, perfect for inperson or zoom meetings, too.
Homebuyers who’ve already purchased an Adera home incorporating this technology know it translates into quieter, more comfortable, more sustainable living every day.
DESIGNED WITH WELLNESS IN MIND
All PURA residences are meticulously crafted to become an intersection of the eight pillars of wellness—emotional, social, spiritual, environmental, physical, occupational, intellectual and financial—with more than 12,000 sq. ft. of on-site amenity space and proximity to every urban convenience imaginable.
