Helping you in your journey
Millennials, please take noteThe GTA and Vancouver are often
cited among the “hot” markets in
Canada, notable for real estate
performance, price growth and other
headline grabbing news.
That’s great for those who already
own a home, but less so for those
trying to get into the market. It is
doubly true for millennials – those
prospective homebuyers in the 18 to
34 age group.
A recent Bank of Montreal
Millennial Home Buyer Report
discussed what these would-be
buyers expect to pay for their fi rst
home. But then the Royal LePage
House Price Survey for the fi rst
quarter of 2016 – so, actual numbers
– revealed some sharp discrepancies.
The implications for young fi rst-
time buyers is that they may have to
adjust their homebuying aspirations.
Instead of that detached home in the
city, your fi rst purchase may have to
be a townhome in the suburbs.
That’s where Southwestern Ontario
shines; the many and varied markets
in SWO o� er a variety of new home
options – at prices millennials and
others can still a� ord.

It’s important to bring a fresh
perspective when shopping for a new
home or new condo. Unlike a resale
property, it’s an opportunity to own a
new abode outfi tted with the fi nishes
and features that you want, not what
the previous owner left behind.

cover story
ADMIRED, PRIZED AND COVETED, the
deep blue sapphire is considered one
of the world’s most beautiful and
sought-after gemstones.
No wonder, then, that New Horizon
Development Group has christened
its latest undertaking after a jewel as
extraordinary as a sapphire.
Located on the shores of brilliant
blue Lake Ontario in charming, trendy
Stoney Creek, Sapphire at Waterfront
Trails marks the second phase in New
Horizon’s vision to build stunning,
yet affordable, condominiums, many
featuring predominantly lake views. It
truly is a rare gem in the landscape of
today’s condominium choices.
“This is a very exciting chapter for
New Horizon Development Group as
we embark on the second phase of a
spectacular opportunity to own a piece
of the waterfront in Stoney Creek,” says

Sapphire at Waterfront Trails presents a rare opportunity to own a lakefront gem
12 YPNEXTHOME.CA
New Horizon Development Group
President Jeff Paikin.
Situated on the largest strip of
undeveloped residential property on
Lake Ontario, Sapphire will offer real
lakefront living to those looking for an
active, yet affordable lifestyle.
“Sapphire is a truly affordable way
to enter the real estate market, and in
such a spectacular location,” Paikin
continues. “We’ve created a self-
contained residential community
removed from the hustle and bustle
of life, yet with all the required
conveniences of transportation, retail,
commercial and the amenities required
for a healthy and active lifestyle.”
Sapphire will consist of 433 units
with predominantly lake views. The
433 will be divided amongst two
six-storey buildings and amenities for
each building will include a beautiful
rooftop terrace overlooking the lake,
The release of Sapphire marks Phase
2 of New Horizon’s already successful
foray into the Hamilton area: a one-
day sales event for Phase 1, Waterfront
Trails Coastal Condos and Towns,
drew more than 1,000 attendees and
the entire community was sold out in
six hours – making it the fastest-selling
development in Stoney Creek history.
Don’t miss out on your chance to
own a stunning view of the sapphire
waters of Lake Ontario. Units start at
$199,999.
New Horizon was established in
1994 as a single-family home builder.
The company then moved to building
custom homes and is now focusing
on condominiums.

a fitness centre and party room.
The community is just a short drive
from bustling Toronto, plus Sapphire
residents will enjoy all of the amenities
offered in close-by Burlington,
Hamilton and Niagara Falls.
And for those longing to embrace
the location, Sapphire’s proximity
to the Waterfront Trail, a well-loved
and used recreation, fitness and
Green transportation amenity and a
world-renowned tourism attraction, is
unmatched.
“Access to the Waterfront Trail is
at your doorstep, as is a convenient
connection to the QEW,” says
Paikin. “Locations like this are usually
unavailable for people who desire an
affordable option, but we’re proud
to have the value proposition, the
architecture, the location and the
amenities available to our clients at a
price that is truly affordable.”

Property Profile | LOSANI HOMES
THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO CAPTURE the full experience of
Losani Homes’ new home community of Fallingwaters on
Stoney Creek Mountain – and that is from above. So that’s
what Losani did: helicopter tours for all purchasers and those
who registered for VIP previews!
It was Losani’s way to bestow thanks to homebuyers
and pre-registered VIPs while building excitement and
anticipation for Fallingwaters – a one-of-a-kind experience
for a one-of-a-kind community. Losani’s Greg Kush, vice-
president of warranty and quality, was the well-versed tour
guide for the tours with Gary Thomson in the pilot’s seat.
Fallingwaters will grasp the edge of the Niagara
Escarpment, a stone’s throw from Centennial Falls. Frank
Lloyd Wright-inspired architecture is as remarkable as the
setting at a price that makes it all possible. Like Wright’s
masterpiece, the modern towns of Fallingwaters are a perfect

complement to the fl ow of nature.
Touches of modern architectural
brick, wood-style fi nishing accents
partnered with the drama of dark
trim will blend seamlessly with the
surroundings.
Hamilton is the city of waterfalls,
so there’s no better location for
Fallingwaters than perched on the
Niagara escarpment with many of
those waterfalls and geographical
wonders just a hike away. Centennial
Falls, Billy Green Falls, Lower
Punchbowl Falls and of course,
the Devil’s Punchbowl, one of the
escarpment’s most unforgettable
sights, are minutes away and were
In addition to waterfalls, conservation
areas and abundant greenspace,
Fallingwaters is within easy reach of
four golf courses plus Scenic Woods
and Southbrook further south. For a
seemingly rural setting with plenty of
wide open spaces, all amenities of city
life are easily accessible along Upper
Centennial Parkway (Hwy. 20) or lower
Centennial into the city and downtown
Stoney Creek.
Forty-one modern townhomes will
comprise Fallingwaters. Sizes range
from 1,319 to 2,441 sq. ft., with prices
starting in the $400’s. Luxury features
include hardwood fl oor on the
main fl oor, stainless steel appliance
package, nine-ft. ceilings on the main
fl oor, quartz kitchen countertops,
home automation package, extended
height upper kitchen cabinets with
under cabinet valance moulding, pot
and pan drawers and much more.
Plus, for a limited time, the veteran
builder is off ering a luxury rooftop
terrace as a special VIP bonus.
Construction is set to begin spring-
summer 2017 with the fi rst families
moving in late 2017.
While the setting is forever, the
opportunity is not, so homebuyers

on view as passengers, four at a time,
toured their new community – from
above! Families were also able to see
the pond and woodlands that will
form permanent natural borders for
their homes that will be located just
off Upper Centennial Parkway, along
with stretches of the Bruce Trail and
the Heritage Green Sports Park.
Using Wright’s penchant for
designing his homes as part of
the surroundings, Losani uses the
presence of woodlands and water
to defi ne this tri-sided community
with natural barriers that separate it
from neighbouring homes in its own
unique setting.

Property Profile | BRANTHAVEN HOMES
IT WAS A DUO CELEBRATION OF THE ARRIVAL of warmer
weather and the commencement of a new waterfront
community on Lake Ontario. Branthaven Homes
gathered homebuyers and dignitaries to break ground
as construction begins at the award-winning Lake House,
Branthaven’s newest, unrivaled waterfront community
in Grimsby.
It’s been less than a year since Lake House was launched
and with more than 300 homes sold, homebuyers were
eager to gather and share their enthusiasm as they divided
their time between pointing out their suites and gazing at
the lakefront views before them.
Steve Stipsits, president of Branthaven Homes, shared
the ground-breaking honors with Grimsby Mayor Bob
Bentley who explained the vision of the area and the future
extension of the Waterfront Trail, which will ultimately link
Lake House to Confederation Park.
Stipsits called the land and location, with its expansive
lake frontage “unprecedented and unmatched in the
region. What sets Lake House apart from other so-called
waterfront developments is its actual location directly on
the shores – 17.5 acres of prime waterfront real estate
with direct waterfront access, protected beaches, fantastic
amenities and panoramic lake views.”
Stipsits laughed as he thanked the Grimsby council for
rejecting their application – twice. “Each time it forced us
to come back with something even better.”
The final result is Lake House – a lakeside resort-
inspired community with three collections of coastal-
styled townhomes and two midrise condominiums of
boutique condos. Their surroundings include landscaped
paths, lakefront promenades and parks. Residents will walk
out to protected greens, waterfront walkways and endless
vistas of the lake, blue sky and the escarpment.
Branthaven Homes will continue to respect the context
of the site’s waterfront location by delivering authentic

architecture with upgraded elevations of character.
“Our award-winning architecture and elevation styles
are always sensitive to their locale context. They are never
designed in isolation or out of character,” says Stipsits.
“With BeachHouse, Wave Condos and Bravo-by-the-
Lake, our customers have come to expect exceptional
architecture that pays homage to a site in which it rests,
and that’s just what we will do at Lake House, the last
landmark site on the shores of Lake Ontario.”
The two condo buildings will be built facing each
other with a pool and courtyard in between. Situated
perpendicular to the lake, they will enable the majority
of suites to view the lake to the north as well as the
Niagara Escarpment to the south. Floorplans range from
one- to two-bedroom plus den, from 465 to 1,185 sq. ft.
in size. The buildings will share an outdoor pool, gazebos,
outdoor terraces, exercise gym with yoga studio and
cardio and pet spa, while each one will have its own
games room, entertainment area, dining area and
catering kitchen.
The Shoreline Town Collection will reside on the water’s
edge, a perfect blend of classic cape cod coastal styling
with glass paneled balconies and large windows for great

views. These luxurious two-storey towns have a fully
fi nished walkout basement.
Located at the heart of the community and only steps
from the lake is The Waterside Town Collection. Traditional
two- and three-storey town plans provide innovative
layouts. The three-storey rear lane towns feature a
double car garage and large open-concept living with
a unique walkout deck at the back of the townhome.
The Village Collection is made up of two-storey
townhomes located above an independent street
level commercial space. A great alternative to typical
condos, they off er an independent entrance and
surface level parking.
“We’ve got everything here – homes, retail, location,”
says Stipsits. In addition, construction is underway on
the Grimsby GO Station located nearby. Grimsby Harbor,
Grimsby Beach, Murray Street Park and Nelles Beach Park
are also nearby landmarks that are all on the water – just
like Lake House.
Suites and towns are still available with prices from
the $200’s. Sales are at 85 per cent with construction
now underway. Completion and occupancy is expected
in early 2018.

THE PROVINCE’S HOME BUILDERS
with the best customer service have
just been announced! Tarion is proud
to present the 2016 Homeowners’
Choice Awards recipients, as chosen
by Ontario’s new-home buyers.
These are the only awards that focus
exclusively on customer service,
and let the buyers decide who
should shine.
And the winners are…» The Daniels Corporation and
The Tricar Group – Highrise Category (tied)
» Tribute Communities – Large Volume Category
» LEMAY Homes – Maisons LEMAY – Medium Volume Category(fi rst time fi nalist and recipient)
» Kolody Homes – Small Volume Category (fi rst time fi nalist and recipient)
“Today’s best companies know that
positive reviews by real customers
are the key to success,” says Tarion
President and CEO Howard Bogach.
“The Homeowners’ Choice Awards,
presented by Tarion, recognize that
when it comes to defi ning success
in the province’s residential building
industry, the voice of the homeowner
matters. Being attentive, responsive
and listening to homebuyers is
what makes these builders rise above
their peers.”
Formerly known as the Tarion
Awards of Excellence, the
Homeowners’ Choice Awards are
the result of thousands of new-
home buyers’ being polled across
the province annually. Anyone that
moved into a new home between
Oct. 1, 2014 and Sept. 30, 2015 was
o� ered the chance to rate their
builder by fi lling out a survey. Out
of more than 56,000 invitations to
participate, an impressive 21 per cent
of new-home buyers participated.
This translated into nearly 12,000
Trending
responses that were tabulated by
Crunch Research and Nielsen.
The survey asks homeowners
to share their opinions of their
builders’ customer service delivery.
Homebuyers are asked to evaluate
every customer service touch-point
in the new-home buying process.
The questions are all centred on
customer service delivery.
According to Bogach, “Tarion
has been working with builders
and homeowners for the past 40
years. This insight has taught us
that builders who make customer

homebuying experience that leads
to happy, satisfi ed homebuyers. The
Homeowners’ Choice Awards show
that almost every builder can have a
chance to be recognized – from small
to large, and new to established. It’s all
about how a builder chooses to focus
on their customers.”
To qualify for the awards, builders
must have had at least fi ve new
home possessions during the survey
timeframe and a specifi ed number of
completed questionnaires must be
returned.

City Focus | BINBROOK
WHEN IT COMES TO REAL ESTATE, community development and new
home building, one of the best opportunities homebuyers can hope
for is an area in transition – a place with a strong natural location,
good value and signifi cant improvement underway through local and
regional initiatives.
Time it right, and purchasing in such an area could be priceless.
Welcome to Binbrook, a small but fast-growing community of
about 15,000 in the southeastern part of Hamilton. It may not be
as well known – at least not yet – as some of its neighbouring
communities such as Stoney Creek, Grimsby and Ancaster, but there
is no question Binbrook is a town on the upswing.
As that old real estate adage goes, it’s all about location, location,
location – and Binbrook has all that going for it, and more.
Part of the Regional Municipality of Hamilton Wentworth, Binbrook
was formerly known as Halls’ Corners, after Squire Hall, whose
store housed the local post o� ce. The name was later changed to
Binbrook after a village in England.
Amalgamated as part of the City of Hamilton
in 2001, Binbrook has since benefi ted from
the expansive development and economic
improvement in the region. Hundreds of
millions of dollars have been spent in recent
years on infrastructure in and around Hamilton,
facilitating easier access to and from the city
and neighbouring communities like Binbrook, as
well as to other major destinations. Close to the
QEW, Binbrook residents and businesses benefi t
from proximity to St. Catharines, Niagara Falls,
Hamilton, Brantford, Cambridge and of course
east into Toronto.
Indeed, the recent opening of the Red Hill
Expressway made it easier than ever to travel
to Toronto or Windsor or Niagara Falls and
anywhere in between. The highway runs through
Hamilton, connecting the Lincoln M. Alexander
Parkway to the QEW near Hamilton Harbour.
Just as this infrastructure facilitates growth and
prosperity in the area, so too is it part of important
local history. The $245-million expressway was
built through the Red Hill Valley by the City
of Hamilton after a decades-long battle with
opponents. It was fi rst proposed in the 1950s and
BinbrookAn island suburb of Hamilton
By Wayne Karl
32 YPNEXTHOME.CA
was cancelled and resurrected several
times over the years. Finally, it was built
during the 2000s and opened in 2007.
Today, the highway is quite literally
a lifeline for Binbrook, leading to
commercial and industrial growth
and expanding residential population
who can now live and work locally,
rather than face long commutes to
neighboring cities for employment.
So, with such growth and
development, Binbrook is primed for
prosperity, with a perfect combination
of old and new, where city meets
country. The area has attracted new
business such as big box stores,
groceries, auto dealerships and other
industry to cater to the growing
community.
Indeed, considered something of an
island suburb of Hamilton, separated
by conservation and agricultural lands,
Binbrook is now seeing hundreds of
new homes being built in the area.
Builders such as Losani Homes, Empire
Communities and Branthaven Homes
have a variety of new-home o� erings,
from detached homes and bungalows
– product that appeals to fi rst-time
buyers, families and even empty nesters.
A� ordability is the keyword in
Binbrook, with average new-home
prices much less than in the GTA
and even other areas in the region.
Losani’s The Fairgrounds Finale,
for example, o� ers two-storey
townhomes from the $300’s, while
Empire is launching Summerlea
Woods, with townhomes from the
mid $300’s and detached homes from
the low $400’s.
Besides location, history and value,
buyers are also attracted to Binbrook
due to the new amenities in the area.
This growing community o� ers new
conveniences that busy families
appreciate, from new stores, services
and state-of-the-art schools, to a 19-
acre park with a sports fi eld, running
track, soccer pitch and wooded trail
system where residents can jog, walk
their dog, push the stroller or just
meet up with neighbours.
Local farmers produce everything
from fruits to vegetables, grains
and livestock, and many stage
Farmers’ Markets or “pick your
own” opportunities, further
building residents’ relationships
with the community and its natural
surroundings.
If golf is what you’re after, there
are plenty of top courses nearby,
including the 18-hole Southbrook
Golf and Country Club, located on
Hwy. 56 in Binbrook.
There is also the Binbrook
Conservation Area, a 396-hectare (978
acre) tract of land owned and operated
by the Niagara Peninsula Conservation
Authority, with 174 hectares (430
acres) covered by the picturesque Lake
Niapenco. The lake is surrounded by
open meadows, hardwood forests and
reforested areas, as well as a network
of hiking trails.
And like many small towns in
Ontario, Binbrook also boasts its
own annual fair – the Binbrook
Fair – which is approaching its 161st
anniversary.
Binbrook is primed for prosperity, with a perfect combination of old and new, where city meets country

Advice | FUNDAMENTALLY SPEAKING
PLANNING TO BUY YOUR FIRST home
and not sure where to begin? Here
are six homebuying tips to help you
prepare.
1. Get with the programs
There are various government
programs available to help you
buy a home.
Home Buyers’ Plan (HBP): The
HBP allows fi rst-time buyers to
withdraw up to $25,000 from their
RRSP to put toward a down payment
on a home. You have up to 15 years
to repay the funds.
First-Time Home Buyers’ Tax
Credit (HBTC): Eligible fi rst-time
buyers can apply for the FTHB to
help o� set the costs associated with
purchasing a home, such as legal
fees, disbursements and land transfer
taxes. The credit can provide up to
$750 in federal tax relief.
More information on these
programs is available at cra.gc.ca
2. Explore your options
First-time buyers can buy a home with
as little as fi ve per cent of the purchase
price as a down payment – as long
as the property is less than $500,000.
Anything higher than that, and the
minimum down payment for the portion
of the price higher than $500,000 is
10 per cent. So, assuming your price
range is at that threshold, you’ll need
to come up with at least $25,000.
At that purchase price, depending
on the market you’re in, this could
mean you’d then be looking at a
townhome, semi-detached or even a
condo, instead of a detached home.
6 homebuying tips for fi rst-timers
By Wayne Karl
MORE ADVICE ONLINEnexthome.yp.ca/news/advice
3. Check with the bank of mom and dad
If your parents are baby boomers
who have had the good fortune of
building equity over the years as they
paid down their mortgage while the
value of their property multiplied,
well… they may be in a position to
help. Many buyers are hitting up the
bank of mom and dad. In the last two
years, 28 per cent of fi rst-time buyers
called on the bank of mom and dad
to help fi nance their purchase; from
2010 to 2014, only 17 per cent did.
4. Become tech savvy
Mortgage consumers are becoming
very tech savvy. In Canada Mortgage
and Housing Corp.’s 2015 Mortgage
Consumer Survey, 78 per cent of
respondents researched online,
with 70 per cent using an mortgage
calculator to help determine their
payments. And social media is playing
a more important role – 20 per cent
used sites such as Facebook to learn
more, 17 per cent used a mobile
device, and of those, 22 per cent used
a mortgage related app. And all of
these fi gures are growing.
5. Befriend a broker or banker
Like many things in life, it’s all about
relationships. And whether you
use broker or a banker to secure a
mortgage, you’ll likely come to value
the relationship. In the same CMHC
survey, consumer loyalty strengthened
the longer people stayed with their
lender. But since we’re talking about
money, people are willing to switch
lenders to get a better rate and save –
a fact which is much more prevalent
for bankers than brokers. And because
brokers are able to o� er products
from multiple lenders, as opposed to
bankers who o� er only the products of
their own institution, the market share
held by brokers is growing notably,
particularly among repeat buyers.
6. Research, research, research
These days, with prices rising as they
are and uncertainty in some markets,
thorough research is an absolute
must. Everything from your target
area, desired housing type, builder or
realtor, fi nances, how much you can
a� ord, who you borrow from and the
structure of your mortgage – take
your time. Take months. Don’t rush
anything. Anything.

Property Profile | MATTAMY HOMES
THE PLEASURES OF RURAL LIVING
in southern Ontario are many and
obvious to most. There’s the scenic
appeal throughout the four seasons.
And then there’s the ability to
participate in the offerings of both
nature and neighbourhood. Surely,
Mattamy Homes considered these
irresistible appeals when the company
chose to return to Cambridge with its
upcoming community of River Mill.
Situated alongside a private
woodlot, River Mill is strategically
and conveniently positioned near the
town of Hespeler and the junction
of Hwys. 401 and 24. This essentially
puts homeowners near almost every
imaginable service or amenity from
big box retailers to farmers’ and
antique markets.
Mattamy is well known for
creating thriving master-planned
communities. River Mill promises
to elevate the offering with many
extra-deep and wooded lots. Plus,
cul-de-sacs will be incorporated into
the neighbourhoods for those who
prefer an even more calming and
cosy environment. Features such as
greenspaces, parks, playgrounds,
plus walking and bicycling trails are
designed to complement the natural
surroundings. Small-town charm
will be manifested through friendly
features such as generous front
porches that harken back to an era

when neighbours and passers-by
would wave and catch up on local
happenings. Mattamy’s specialized
architectural approach puts people
ahead of cars, as you’ll notice when
you visit an established Mattamy
community. You’ll probably also
become aware of the gentle curves
in the streets, designed specifically to
reduce the speed of traffic. As well,
the comprehensive network of paths
gives residents real options to driving.
The streetscapes in Mattamy
communities are also universally
described as fresh-faced and
visually stimulating. In River Mill,
you will discover an inviting variety
of detached home styles, each
offering you a healthy choice of
of the oversized windows Mattamy’s
designers choose to use. Not only do
they allow plenty of natural light into
your home, they also allow you to
gaze out upon the benefits of living
naturally right here in the heart of
southern Ontario.
Mattamy was named Waterloo-
Wellington Builder of the Year by
the Waterloo Region Home Builders’
Association. The company’s return to
Cambridge will surely be welcomed
by many. So, we suggest you register
quickly to stay abreast of all the
community information.

floorplans and elevations, and a near
overwhelming selection of decor
options through Mattamy’s legendary
Design Studio. You’ll also have the
unique ability to choose from a series
of Architect’s Choice Options, so that
your personal preferences in living
style can be accommodated.
Though you may choose to live
just outside the city, these choices
available here ensure you needn’t
sacrifice any of the creature comforts
a modern home can provide.
Discover many features for which
Mattamy has become well respected.
Explore Mattamy’s efforts to create
spacious, open designs that make
already generous spaces seem larger
