Highlighting spectacular home renovations and gor-geous newly built homes is
the annual Parade of Renovated and Custom Homes, taking place Sunday June 12.
The one-day, self-guided tour organized by the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association includes 16 stunning properties located across Metro Vancouver. They range from a luxurious, con-temporary, 6,000-square-foot whole-house reno including a steel-and-glass staircase in West Vancouver to a lavish custom-built Mexican-style villa in South Surrey, and many more besides.
“We felt including custom homes better refl ected Vancouver’s cur-rent housing market and the work of our members,” said Bob de Wit, CEO of GVHBA. “Whereas a few
years ago renovators were com-monly quoting on smaller scale projects, today, homeowners sitting on new found real estate wealth are looking at complete home renovations and custom built homes.”
At each of the 16 properties, the design-build teams will be on site to talk visitors through the projects and off er their expert advice to those who are looking to do their own home renovations or custom builds.
Other highlights of the 2016 Parade include a 20-foot Eclipse and Tilt-and-Slide door that brings outdoor living into a Burnaby kitchen, an absolutely enormous kitchen island that will take your breath away in North Van, an artisan-inspired designer’s home in New Westminster and a Built
Green-certifi ed custom home in Vancouver.
Not all the properties are huge – there’s also a superbly laid-out 900-square-foot two-bedroom-and-den Vancouver laneway home for smaller-budget inspiration.
Also included are four projects currently under construction, giv-ing Parade-goers the chance to
look past the fabulous fi nishes and delve into the know-how behind these projects.
“Renovation and custom home building is as much a science today as it is about craftsmanship and design,” said de Wit. “All the com-fort we have come to expect from our homes is supported by build-ing science. I encourage anyone considering a home renovation or custom home build to take this opportunity to meet the builders and see fi rst-hand what goes into a project. Our Parade is as edu-cational as it is inspirational, and I am confi dent consumers will be just as wowed by what is behind the walls as the state-of-the-art design fi nishing.”
Admission is by passport, avail-
able at each home for $10 per person (children 17 and under are free). Passports can be purchased at any home, and then used for entry to the remaining homes. A portion of the proceeds from passport sales will help fund the purchase of tools, building mate-rials and safety gear for a car-pentry training program off ered by Guildford Park and Frank Hurt secondary schools in Surrey.
Viewing time is limited to between 10am and 4pm, so plan your own personal parade before heading out.

The “fear of missing out” is one of the key factors driving buyers to snap up all available listings,
resulting in the “frenzied” real estate market so far this year, according to a quarterly report by Urban Analytics on behalf of the Urban Development Institute.
UDI’s Q1 2016 State of the Market report, released this week, said, “While the current local economic fac-tors seem reasonably strong, anecdotal analysis would suggest that the robust sales activity in the real estate sector of late can also be attributed to a ‘fear of missing out’ sentiment among pro-spective buyers in the marketplace.”
The report, which examines new home sales and housing starts in Metro
Vancouver, observed that the local new home market set new records in 2016’s fi rst quarter.
“A combined total of 6,231 newly built multi-family home sales were recorded in Q1 2016, up 18 per cent from the previous six-year record set last quarter. Frenzied home sales activ-ity across the region has resulted in new lows for released new home inven-tory. At the end of the quarter, there were only 3,010 new multi-family homes available to purchase, down 64 per cent from the released 8,260 units recorded in Q1 2015.”
It added, “The townhome sector con-tinues impress, with a record 1,268 sales reported in Q1 2016. Based on the 227 released and unsold new town-
home units reported at the end of the quarter, there is an estimated two weeks’ supply of this product type in the market. Strong townhome sales can be attributed to a growing number of prospective purchasers seeking a family-oriented housing form and can no longer afford a single family home in the neighbourhood of their choice.”
The authors pointed to an overall increase in Metro Vancouver’s net pop-ulation in 2016’s fi rst quarter, up 7,200 people – although it noted that this is a slower rate of growth than the same period in 2015. It said this overall increase was attributable to a rise in interprovincial migrants, since international migration was negative in the quarter.
The report added that housing starts in the quarter were up 13 per cent year over year, resulting in the current ratio of 1.9 new Metro Vancouver residents per housing start, down from the 2.3 recorded in Q4 2015. “While this ratio is still considered to be healthy, it matches the previous four-year low and should be monitored closely to see if a potential trend is establishing,” reported the authors.
