You might spend a lot of time imagining the kind of home you want: The number of bedrooms and bathrooms and the style – a condo, a townhome or a single-family home. But do you ever think about where you want to live?
The neighbourhood and the surrounding area you choose to live in is as important as the size and style of your future new home. As you do your research and investigate all the fabulous housing developments that are available, check out if its location is a good fit for your lifestyle and needs. It’s so easy to get excited about a new condo or townhome development and put other things on the back burner, such as the proximity to greenspace, transit and shopping. The last thing you want is to discover after you move into your lovely home that the ‘hood really doesn’t meet your needs.
Where and how you want to live is particularly important for homeowners looking to downsize — or right-size — as well as anyone thinking of purchasing a home on a single income. On page 26, real estate pro, Barbara Lawlor, discusses the merits of right-sizing – selling a too-large home that no longer suits your needs, to something smaller that ‘fits’ better — with tips on how to make the process a smooth and enjoyable experience.
Last year’s housing market was rife with uncertainty and rising interest rates, especially for homebuyers with a single income. Luckily, 2024 is looking a bit brighter, with home prices dropping and rates holding steady. Personal finance expert, Jesse Abrams, outlines on page 18 four key things you can do to prepare to purchase a home on a single income. Regardless of the economic environment we’re in, buying a home on your own can be possible if you are financially prepared.
As always, this issue is packed with other interesting and informative articles to help you on your home-hunting journey, including new releases, how real estate investment can help you grow your wealth for retirement, and inspiring ideas on how to decorate a small space. Let us know what you think. We’d love to hear from you.

WEST END VANCOUVER
ONE OF THE CITY’S SHINING STARS
The west end of Vancouver lies downtown, bounded by Stanley Park in the west, West Georgia Street to the north, Burrard Street to the east and Pacific Avenue to the south.
It is a luminous and richly diverse kaleidoscope of hangouts for the urbanite, the socialite and the sport enthusiast. Although glass skyscrapers abound, there are tree-lined streets and lanes and garden oasis cared for by volunteer “green thumbs.” If you like walking, cycling or jogging, it’s a Mecca. For architecture lovers, there’s
by MICHELLE HOPKINS
a whole block of heritage homes dubbed Mole Hill, or art junkies will go for the funky, sometimes quirky, public art installations.
VIBE
Along with its eccentricities, the west end is the second oldest and most diverse neighbourhood in the city. It’s really one of the city’s shining stars! At one time, the west end was dominated by white wealthy elite! Today, Davie Street is famous for its gay nightclubs and the city’s best queer bars; Robson
Street has its luxurious and expensive shops and restaurants, and Denman Street its intimate and great ethnic eateries. In addition, there’s so much greenspace, it’s attracted young urban families, too. This effervescent mix is why so many people want to live here and visit.
IN THE AREA
The west end has two schools, Lord Roberts Elementary and King George Secondary, the historic St. Paul’s Hospital (which has the
NEIGHBOURHOOD PROFILE
12 New Home + Condo Guide | March 16–30, 2024
distinction of being one of the first hospitals in the country to treat HIV/ AIDS patients and is a world leader in clinical research), libraries and a community centre.
DOLLARS & SENSE
Increased density and the appeal of living downtown have boosted the prices of real estate substantially over the last decade. Getting into this neighbourhood is not cheap; a condo/ apartment will cost you, on average, half a million and up. There aren’t many single-family homes here, and the relatively few are, by and large, heritage homes starting around $1 million and go up from there.
THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE REST
There’s not a lot of bad things to say about the west end, except
if you drive … it’s a nightmare. Surrounded by world-class parks and beaches, bustling with shops and eateries, minutes away from the downtown core, Coal Harbour and more, can anyone come up with another negative comment? It is also home to the raucously fun Gay Pride Parade, the Honda Celebration of Light International Fireworks competition and the Polar Bear Swim!
PLANES, TRAINS & AUTOMOBILES
This is one of the most walkable communities, yet it is within easy access to the Canada Line and transit. Many residents have tossed their car keys to opt for Car2Go … when and if they ever leave this little slice of heaven.
HOT SPOTS
STANLEY PARK
Voted Best Park in the World 2014 by TripAdvisor, this beloved urban park is a 400-hectare rainforest almost completely surrounded by water. Walk, hike, cycle, eat, drink, lounge on the beach or visit the First Nations totem poles … I could go on and on!
WATER TAXI
There’s no better way to see the west end than by water. Hop on the colourful little ferry taxi and explore the area. A suggestion is to purchase a Hop On, Hop-Off day pass and really take in the spectacular scenery.
THE SYLVIA HOTEL
Built in 1913, this grand dame is a landmark heritage building standing proudly on English Bay. Covered in vines with an iconic neon sign, it boasts a fabulous cocktail lounge with live music thanks to talented local artists.

RETIREMENT AND WEALTH CREATION INVEST IN REAL ESTATE
ALISA ARAGON-LLOYD
Investing is a fundamental aspect of building wealth and securing financial stability for the future. Whether you are aiming to bolster your current retirement savings or expand your portfolio, strategic investments can pave the way for long-term financial success. Among the myriad
investment avenues available, real estate stands out as a cornerstone strategy for wealth accumulation and retirement planning.
Real estate investment involves deploying capital into properties with the expectations of generating returns through rental income, property appreciation, or both. It offers a host of benefits that can significantly contribute to wealth accumulation and retirement planning objectives. Here is a closer look at how investing in real estate holds immense potential for individuals seeking to build wealth.
• Diverse revenue streams
Real estate investments offer multiple avenues for generating income. Beyond potential appreciation in property value, investors can earn steady rental income from tenants, providing a reliable cash flow stream. This dual benefit of appreciation and rental income enhances the overall return on investment, making real estate an attractive option for wealth creation. For those who are in the building or renovation industry, this is a perfect opportunity to look at leveraging properties for profit.
ADVICE | MORTGAGE MINUTE 14 New Home + Condo Guide | March 16–30, 2024
• Tax advantages
The tax benefits associated with real estate investments can significantly increase returns and bolster overall financial health. Investors can take advantage of deductions such as mortgage interest, property taxes, and depreciation, effectively lowering their taxable income and maximizing profitability.
• Hedge against inflation
Real estate serves as a natural hedge against inflation, as property values and rental income tend to rise in tandem with increases in the cost of living. Unlike other investment vehicles that may fail in times of inflation, real estate assets typically retain their value and may even appreciate, preserving an investor’s purchasing power over the long term.
• Portfolio diversification
Incorporating real estate into an investment portfolio can enhance diversification and mitigate overall risk. Real estate assets often have a low correlation with traditional financial instruments such as stocks and bonds, meaning they may perform independently during market fluctuations. By diversifying across asset classes, investors can reduce volatility and safeguard their portfolios against unforeseen market downturns.
• Long-term appreciation
Real estate has historically demonstrated the potential for long-term appreciation, making it an attractive option for retirement planning. Properties located in desirable neighbourhoods or experiencing population growth are more likely to appreciate over time, providing investors with substantial capital gains upon sale. Moreover, investors can actively increase a property’s value through strategic renovations and upgrades, further boosting potential returns on investment.
THE RIGHT STRATEGY
Investing in real estate is a prudent strategy for individuals who seek to build wealth and secure their financial future, particularly in retirement. With its diverse revenue streams, tax advantages, and inflation hedging properties, real estate offers a compelling opportunity for investors to achieve financial stability and enjoy a comfortable retirement.
Speak with a financing expert who has the knowledge and guidance necessary to navigate the complexities of real estate investment. Whether your goals involve short-term gains or longterm wealth accumulation, suitable planning is key to investing in your future with confidence. By leveraging their expertise and resources, you can make informed decisions and embark on a path towards financial security and prosperity.

ABBOTSFORD
A ‘CITY IN THE COUNTRY’
The city of Abbotsford is located on S’ólh téméxw, the unceded, traditional, ancestral shared territory of the Semá:th First Nation and Mathekwi First Nation in the central Fraser Valley, covering approximately 389 square kilometres. With an estimated population of 153,524, it is the largest municipality in the province outside metropolitan Vancouver. Often referred to as a “city in the country”, Abbotsford is bordered by the Township of Langley to the west, the city of Mission to the north, and the city of Chilliwack to the east, with views of Mount Baker to the southeast in Washington and the Coast Mountains to the north.
THE ECONOMY
Abbotsford is surrounded by agricultural lands that anchor the economy, with 1,307 area farms that support a wide range of crops and livestock production, from fruit trees and tree nuts to poultry, eggs, cattle
by MARLENE EISNER
ranching and dairy. There is also a dynamic business community that continues to expand, with specialized manufacturing and aerospace sectors as well as healthcare, social assistance, retail and construction.
THE OUTDOOR LIFE
If you like being in the great outdoors, Abbotsford is for you, especially if you love to hike, mountain bike, fish, farm or golf. For the truly adventurous, Sumas Mountain, one of the area’s tallest mountains, is just a short
drive from the city. The 10-kilometre
Discovery Trail links east and west Abbotsford while the 2.2-kilometre Mill Lake Loop is an easy walk. For those who prefer a more laid-back outdoor experience, Mill Lake Park is a popular place for picnics, fishing, and more.
HOUSING
If you’re looking to own a home, Abbotsford might be a good option since it happens to be one of the province’s most affordable major cities, with an overall cost of living set at 22 per cent lower than the provincial average. Housing costs in Abbotsford are 11 per cent below the national average and 81 per cent below British Columbia’s average. If you’re thinking of raising a family, the Abbotsford School District has 46 schools — 30 elementary schools, eight middle schools, one combined middle-secondary school, and seven secondary schools.

4 TIPS FOR BUYING A HOME
ON A SINGLE INCOME
In today’s market, with high interest rates and volatile inflation, the mere thought of making a home purchase on your own might seem out of reach. However, with home prices dropping, rates holding steady since July, and fixed rates lowering, the path ahead is looking a lot brighter for homebuyers, especially those entering the market for the first time. If you are planning on purchasing a home this year on a single income, there are four key things you can do to be prepared, in spite of this economic backdrop.
1. GET A MORTGAGE PRE-APPROVAL
Understanding what you can afford before starting your home search is one of the most important steps you can take, especially if you’re buying on a single income. A mortgage pre-approval, which is less formal than securing an actual mortgage, is when a lender assesses your financial situation to determine how much you can borrow and gives you an estimate of what your monthly payments will be. If granted, the lender will commit to loaning you a specific amount of money over a 120-day period. However, this is not 100-per-cent set in stone and may not convert to an approval when you’re ready to buy. While a pre-approval is not mandatory, it offers several advantages to prospective
homebuyers. It ensures financial preparedness, it offers meaningful insights into your affordability, so that you can set a realistic budget to guide your home search, and it eases the stress of the process. If you’re making this investment on your own, extra steps such as a pre-approval can help you to understand your finances better and indicate as where you might need to improve to make your home purchase with confidence.
2. MINIMIZE YOUR DEBT TO IMPROVE YOUR CREDIT
Before making any sudden moves, it’s crucial to get your finances in order, starting with any outstanding debt you may have. Your debt-to-income ratio, which is the comparison of your monthly debt payments to
ADVICE | PERSONAL FINANCE
JESSE ABRAMS
18 New Home + Condo Guide | March 16–30, 2024
your monthly gross income, is a significant factor lenders look at when reviewing your mortgage application. By clearing your credit card debt and paying down loans, whether they’re student loans, auto loans or other types, you not only improve your chances of getting approved for a mortgage, but you also ensure your financial stability to manage the additional expenses that come with homeownership.
It’s also essential to avoid taking on any large purchases or additional debt before you’re approved for a mortgage. This can significantly impact your debt-to-income ratio and credit score, potentially affecting your loan terms or your ability to qualify for a mortgage at all.
3. DON’T SPEND ALL YOUR MONEY ON A DOWN PAYMENT
When it comes to making a home purchase on your own, a down payment can feel like one of the biggest financial hurdles to overcome. And while it is important and can help to reduce your monthly mortgage payments, it’s one of the many costs associated with buying a home. In addition to your down payment, homebuyers on a single income also need to budget for closing costs, property taxes, maintenance, the cost
of furnishing the home and CMHC home insurance if you make a down payment that is less than 20 per cent. A well-thought-out budget will ensure you’re not stretching yourself too thin, so that you can enjoy your new home without financial stress.
4. SHOP AROUND FOR A MORTGAGE
When shopping for a mortgage, many Canadians typically default to their home bank without exploring other options. However, when making such a significant financial commitment, it’s important to shop around and understand what’s available in the marketplace before making a decision. Given that everyone’s financial situation and goals vary, finding a mortgage that aligns with your unique needs and goals is crucial. This includes understanding the specifics of prepayment privileges and penalties, which are essential for adapting to life’s changes.
For instance, if you’re buying a home on a single income and later enter into a relationship with the desire to make a lump sum payment on your mortgage, your ability to do so is dependent on the terms of your mortgage contract. This underscores the importance of reading the fine print and fully understanding the details of your mortgage agreement

to ensure it not only fits your current needs, but also potential future scenarios.
Regardless of the economic environment we’re in, buying a home on your own is possible and a goal within reach if you are financially prepared, leverage the proper tools available to you, and seek advice from a mortgage professional.

TIPS FOR DECORATING A SMALL SPACE
by LISA ROGERS
Decorating a small space isn’t really that different from decorating a large one – it just requires some ingenuity and understanding of what works in the space and what doesn’t. While your focus will be different when you’re working with less square footage, the basic rules of design are very much the same.
Whether you’re looking to decorate a condominium or small home, give some thought to these eight tips to optimize your space.
FIND THE RIGHT LIGHT
First, if you have plenty of natural light, let it shine through. Keep window treatments airy with sheer fabrics, so light can come through easily, and you’re not weighing down your space with heavy curtains or blinds. Add additional lighting throughout your space but avoid any big floor or table lamps – they just add “bulk” – and opt for wall sconces, pendant lights or string lights that don’t take up too much real estate.
MIRROR, MIRROR ON THE WALL
If you aren’t blessed with a lot of natural light in a room, mirrors
can add additional light and the feeling of space by reflecting back any natural and non-natural lighting you do have. It will give the illusion of more square footage, so think about using one large mirror in your room or arrange a few smaller ones throughout.
AVOID HEAVY FURNITURE
When dressing a small space, your furniture has to look light. For example, instead of investing in a sturdy block of a coffee table, opt for a piece that has legs on it. Why? It helps carry the eye in and around your space, which gives the impression of a bigger room.
USE FURNITURE THAT IS MULTI-PURPOSE
I often pick pieces that are multipurpose, such as a high-top table in the kitchen area that acts as a workstation as well as an eating area. You can get creative with storage options, too: Ottomans that can store your linens, or built-in cabinetry under your bed. Nowadays there are so many chic storage options that work double-duty as a piece of decor.
TRY ‘FLOATING’ PIECES
Shelves and nightstands that are built into the walls keep your floor clear of any obstacles and free up some extra space as well.

THE BIGGER THE RUG, THE BETTER
Believe it or not, you don’t want to skimp on size with your rug. A tiny rug just makes the room feel equally as small, so pick a floor covering that’s large enough, so most of the furniture will sit on it or go wall-to-wall.
KEEP COLOURS NEUTRAL
This feels fairly obvious, but lighter walls give the illusion of a bigger space, where darker walls do the opposite. My favourite hues are
from Benjamin Moore: CC40 or Chantilly Lace. I often use them both in design.
ADD SOME COLOUR
Yes, you can. Use colour for your pillows, bedding, artwork or carpets, but I always caution about going too overboard with really bold patterns of palettes. You want to minimize the “noise,” as it were, so my advice is to add your colour, but keep it fresh, light and harmonious.

IS IT TIME TO THINK ABOUT
RIGHT-SIZING?
BARBARA LAWLOR
Over the past few years, we have experienced unprecedented challenges in the new construction real estate industry. The pandemic, supply chain issues and interest rate increases have all taken their toll, not only through potential purchasers waiting for rates to settle and the market to pick up, but also through owners of large single-detached homes doing the same. If you own a large, detached home and have been sitting on the sidelines when you might have otherwise sold and moved into more suitable accommodations, now is a great time to assess your situation and act on your decision.
Right-sizing after spending decades in a large lowrise home is a big decision, but also a freeing one. You might find yourself an empty nester or senior rambling around in a home that is just too big for your needs. Maybe you prefer to move into a smaller detached home, or even a townhome or semi, so you still have a yard for gardening. For a lot of mature buyers, taking care of a yard and garden are important pastimes. You could look for a bungalow for easier one-level living in a community located close to amenities, perhaps even some within walking distance.
Then again, you may be ready for a condominium lifestyle for the benefits of having a vertical community that fits your needs. Again, one-level living is easier to maneuver, plus you enjoy having exterior and common area maintenance handled for you. If you
are able to finally travel the way you have dreamed, locking your suite door and leaving is a breeze, feeling confident that your home is being looked after while you are away. Today’s condos are built close to local amenities, and many even have some retail spaces in the lobby. Gardeners take note: You may even find a condo that offers rooftop gardening spots. Many right-sizers choose boutique condominiums that are more intimate than highrise towers. It’s all a matter of preference.
Whichever lifestyle is your cup of tea, remember that buying new brings with it numerous perks, including B.C.’s Home Warranty insurance coverage on new homes. This adds a level of confidence that brings welcome peace of mind to mature buyers.
So, how can you prepare for your move? First start decluttering your decades worth of “stuff.” Remember that today’s adult children do not want the same number of knickknacks their parents and grandparents likely own. Spring is around the corner and is the perfect time to hold a yard sale or use consignment stores for more
valuable items. Your cast-offs may be someone else’s treasures.
Then consider carefully where and how to shop for a new home or condo. Location, location, location is first on most people’s lists. Perhaps you can move farther away from an urban area, or maybe you live on a rural property and want to relocate to a place where you can walk to amenities. Either way, you can find houses or condominiums that will appeal.
One thing we have all learned is that we do not know what the future will hold. Right now, you can start making plans to right-size. The resale market needs your lowrise home. You will know when the timing is right to realize your new housing dream.
