It’s a while since we blogged about our Net Zero projects, so an update is likely in order! Our project on Westdale Road in Oakville is enjoying good progress. Currently in framing stages, it’s the first home to be registered in Oakville in the National Research Canada’s Net Zero Ready program. At the risk of re-plowing old ground the Net Zero program is what is now recognized as the gold standard in comfort and energy efficiency. Mike Holmes, in a National Post article called Net Zero
With the Golden Horseshoe experiencing a very cold winter, breaking records on the coldest January days, spring was slow coming this year. It’s a funny thing, but we are such creatures of habit. As the days lengthen, the sun starts to show its face and temperatures pop up above those frosty winter norms we all come out of hibernation. It’s even more apparent in the housing business. Early in the spring, trying to divine if the year will be busy, we look for clues. The recent interest rate increases and dire warnings from the government regarding the monetary tightening seemed foreboding. The listings of Homes for sale in Burlington felt stagnant for a spell. The phone was also quiet in the early spring and real estate news seemed glum. Fast forward a couple of months and a few degrees in temperature. Here we are in May and perhaps it’s the optimism of a budding spring but in our neck of the woods things are heating up to be a very busy year!
Your mortgage payment is likely one of the biggest, if not the biggest monthly payment in your budget. Despite this fact a recent CMHC survey reported that interest rate increases were not among the top motivators for first time buyers in 2017. Not surprisingly, according to the survey a full 80% of home buyers saw their home as a long term investment and further technology was seen as a significant tool in the home buying process. When we are not in the market, buying and selling we may not be so aware of where prices are in our area, we are however always curious about “how much did that neighbours house go for?”
Oakville, once a recreational spot for week-ending Torontonians, is home to one of Southern Ontario’s oldest communities. The area immediately south of the town centre known as the heritage district has many homes dating into the 1800’s. Oakville boasts are many…. An official customs house and port of Entry into British North America not to mention it was an endpoint to the famous underground railroad. Early ship building and merchant activities are well documented from 1828 when William Chisholm completed works on the harbour. A burgeoning community formed around this early outpost with its fertile land and the town today continues with a charming marriage of the old and new.
Oakville appears to enjoy a special place in people’s hearts, at least where real estate is concerned. The town of “Oakville” named after its abundance of oak trees has a stated mandate to maintain its tree canopy. The lower reaches of Oakville are blessed with a microclimate, being sheltered by the Iroquois ridge, thought to be the vestigial shoreline of the ancient glacial “Lake Iroquois” the precursor to today’s Lake Ontario. This microclimate, with rich deep soil and large tree canopies make the neighbourhoods of South East Oakville feel “cottagey.”
