If you’re a retired Canadian, chances are that you view winter as one of the ideal times to travel. This approach makes a lot of sense: enjoy Canada at its warmest; escape it at its coldest. Yet, for many homeowners, the obligations of exterior maintenance make winter getaways either untenable or — if you decide to hire a property management group — expensive.

To solve this problem, our team is building Estates-Style Communities across Western Canada that allow homeowners to live maintenance-free!

Ready to ditch the shovel and kick back at the beach? Here’s how you can do it — hassle and worry-free.

By paying a low monthly condo fee — much less than you’d pay to have a detached home maintained — Estates-Style homeowners are freed from the obligations of snow-shovelling, lawn-care, and exterior repairs. We call this the maintenance-free lifestyle, and it’s easily one of the most celebrated aspects of our Estates Communities. Travel at your leisure, knowing in advance that your home and community will be fully cared for while you’re away.

As an added benefit, we do all that we can to reduce the costs of these homes without lowering their quality. By building these bungalow condos as parts of larger, integrated communities, we’re able to take advantage of economies of scale and offer them at unmatched price points. In fact, many of our buyers are left in the fortunate position of having money left over after the sale of their old home and the purchase of their Estates-home.

No matter what your plans are — whether you dream of heading south to escape the cold, or would simply like to spend more time enjoying your home — we’re confident that you’ll love these bungalow condos and the lifestyle they enable. If you’d like to learn more about the reality-tested floorplans or fantastic standard features offered within these communities, check out this article.
