I believe this downtown Kelowna 24 Condominium development will bring a much needed breath of vitality to the downtown and will bring clients to my door step to help my business grow" - Sandy Jones - Business Owner.  "I love the modern contemporary look of the building at 24 Kelowna condos. The concept of walking to work and shopping in my downtown Kelowna neighbourhood really appeals to me, leaving me more time to do the things I love, not to mention lessen my impact on the environment. - Grant Murray - Retail Manager (Lifelong Kelowna Resident).

Acting as a catalyst in Kelowna's downtown core, the proposed 24 Kelowna real estate property development offers the opportunity to bring residents together with business and services in a sustainable, community focused environment.

The Nanaimo real estate development will encompass a championship golf course, wellness spa, boutique hotel and lifestyle amenities.  If location is indeed the most important factorwhen buyin and selling real estate, then Nanaimo’s proposed Cable Bay Golf Resort &amp; Spa development real estate offers a rare opportunity to live in one of the most stunning places imaginable.  This is an article published in the West Coast Design magazine earlier this year.  Located south of Nanaimo, on the east coast of Vancouver Island, the 520 acre Cable Bay property is situated on the bluff overlooking the beautiful Dodd Narrows, known to mariners coast-wide as the gateway to B.C.’s scenic Gulf Island.  Superb sunrise views and the fact that the Cable Bay Nanaimo resort will include plenty of green space and an 18 hole signature champtionship golf course set within a dramatic, forested landscape with stunning ocean views make this location all the more attractive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;The next steps for Cable Bay Nanaimo Real Estate Release&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first phase of the development – The Estates at Cable Bay Resort – features 17 waterfront acreages – 12 of which are five-acre waterfront lots and five are five-acre ocean view lots – hugging the coastline with 3,200 feet of waterfront along the shores of Nanaimo.  Roger McKinnon of McKinnon And Associates is the Marketing Director for the Cable Bay estate waterfront lots release.  McKinnon says that the vision for Cable Bay Golf Resort &amp; Spa is a green, fully integrated residential/destination community highlighted by a signature golf course, wellness spa, boutique hotel and various lifestyle amenities unrivalled by any other Nanaimo real estate development.  The Estates at Cable Bay in Nanaimo is only minutes away from downtown, business core, shops, restaurants and marinas.  Two passenger/car ferries and an airport connect this mid-island city with the B.C. mainland.  Gary Browning, one of Canada’s leading golf architects, has designed the golf course to flow with the natural terrain and to incorporate ocean, forest and island views.  To protect wildlife he plans to use native plants that attract ertain species to the Estates at Cable Bay Golf Course, and he will include cover where animals, such as deer, can feel safe and protected.  Organic-based products, endorsed by Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency, will be sued on the golf course at Cable Bay Nanaimo Resort development.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Waterfront properties, especially five acre parcels, are a scarce commodity on Vancouver Island,” says Roger McKinnon.  The Isalnd is fast becoming a retirement destination of choice for baby booms.  Gary Browning talks about the Cable Bay Golf Course in Nanaimo: Our goal was to create an exciting resort golf course, unlike any other on the Island, that capitalizes on the site’s inherent natural character, open ocean views and unique landscape quality,” says Browning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;McKinnon, who has 30 years of experience in the real estate and BC resort development industries says The Estate at Cable Bay presents an opportunity to own unmatched waterfront property in an exceptional resort setting, and interest from potential home buyers is high.

Homes and Resort magazine: The sunny Shuswap resort area has long been a hot spot for summer vacations, offering a huge splash of adventure among over 1,000 kilometres of shoreline on this unique lake with four arms – from secluded sandy beaches to quiet bays for waterskiing and fishing.  At the western end, close to where Vancouver drivers enjoy their first glimpse of this massive sparkling lake, Gateway Lakeview Resort real estate in the Shuswap Lake recreational market is growing to accommodate the extended appeal of this scenic region.  Beyond the summer and boating fun, the Shuswap resort community also boasts three wineries, a half dozen challenging golf courses (two new tracks opened just last year), plus hiking and biking trails that climb high into the world renowned snowmobiling terrain int eh winter.  The nearby Adams River to the Shuswap Gateway Lakeview Resort property thrills visitors with whitewater rapids to raft therough in the spring time, and the famous sight of BC’s largest run of sockeye salmon each October – with spawning runs reaching into the millions in the peak years.  With a new roadway planned to provide a direct 20 minute drive to Sun Peaks ski resort (BC’s second largest), there’s many reasons to vacation in any season at the Shuswap Lakes recreational real estate development at the Gateway Lakeview Resort.  With 100 cabins offered in Phase 2, Gateway Lakeview Resort real estate is now expanding beyond their popular RV lots at this scenic 30 hectare retreat near Lee Creek.  Three completed show cabins at the lakeview Gateway Resort shows cabins exemplify the value offered from $380,000 to $450,000, with another 14 under construction for use in August.  “These are super view cabins, quite a nice design,” said Mark Clark, realtor with Gateway Lakeview Shuswap Resort. “These are designed for four season use – skiing, snowmobiling and boating.”  Buit upon a concrete foundation, the cabins covered in cedar siding feature natural interiors with pine finished vaulted ceilings, wood cabinetry, laminate counter tops and five appliances.  Comforts at the Gateway Lakeview Resort real estate properties include air conditioning, and a fireplace plus an optional furnishing package.

Murry for the BC Resorts Property magazine.  On the quieter shore of Okanagan Lake, residents wake up to the sunny side of the Okanagan Valley amid colourful fruit orchards and award winning wineries – away from the crowds.  The recreational paradise calle dteh Okanagan real estate community has always been a great place to enjoy all year round recreation that includes skiing and golfing in addition to the multitude of water sports for all ages and lifestyles.  Summer’s abundant sunshine is enthusiastically welcomed at the many pristing Okanagan beaches and marinas offering access to extended boating and more along the 130 km long Okanagan Lake waterfront real estate properties.  While these fine amenities in the major centres of Penticton, Kelowna and Vernon real estate have become renowned over the decades, although some people continue to prefer the serene beauty that remains less crowded on the opposite shore.  From colourful Peachland with 5,000 residents to the quaint village like Fintry, the west shore sems a world away from the 110,000 plus within the nearby city of Kelowna real estate. “it is just a totally different time zone almost,”s ays Robert M., sales director for Westbank real estate Copper Sky and Platinum Project Marketing. Beachwear seems natural for the couple thousand residents sporadically dotted along the northwest corner of Okanagan Lake in WEstbank real estate in small communities like Traders Cove, Wilson Landing, and Fintry. In between, recreational development Okanagan real estate properties like LaCasa and Lake Okanagan resort property may soon be joined by new holiday homes at TimberRidge and Orchard Beach resorts.  It’s also no surprise to see swimwear clad shoppers in Peachland’s downtown stores and restaurants – all located jus across the street from some of the town’s five km of pristine pebble beaches and marinas. “The views here is incredibly beautiful and constantly inspiring,” said Paul Hanson, sales rep for Island View Estates on Peachland’s Trepanier Beach. “It is a beautiful little enclave between the busy area of Kelowna and Penticton.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;More about the Westbank Real Estate Westside Neighbourhood&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even in Westbank real estate, whose 30,000 residents last year voted to become BC’s newest city, remains casual.  A small town spirit is still alive, even while the stores grow exponentially in size and number to accommodate a growing population.  “People take their Okanagan lake lifestyle community with all the amenities. We’ve got everything you need to do when you want to relax. You can rent a boat or enjoy lunch at one of the wineries.”  For those who like their R&amp;R with G&amp;G (golf and grapes), the Westside real estate hills are home to two 19 hole courses and five wineries. These include the impressive Mission Hill Estate where more VQA wine is produced than any other single facility in BC.  Wine visitors are captivated by even more than the hundreds of kegs of wine aging in their underground cave. Over $40 million of intriguing architecture within this hilltop sestates includes artistic arched walkways bordering a natural performance amphitheatre – all under the signature bell tower rising 40 metres high.  Hainle Winery and Greata Ranch provide the next flavour selections around Peachland real estate – both with presale resort homes now growing up on their borders.  More adventures awaits just 10 minutes above Westbank real estate, as the Okanagan’s most popular array of cross country ski trails wind just below Crystal Mountain family ski hill. Future plans call for an expansion of terrain and lift service, plus additional summer fun with a golf course. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Westbank Property is Growing Up&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now one year old, the new municipality of Westside is walking proudly forward, and celebrating its growth in so many new forms – a new bridge, many new stores, new leaders emerging and new neighbourhoods opening up.  In May, the new five lane bridge opened by its namesake – Wliliam Bennett, former BC premier.  Local residnts quickly rejoiced that traffic would flow much quicker to and from Kelowna than the original 50 year old three land floating bridge.  This year, many people are finding fewer reasons to cross that new bridge, due to WEstbank real estate’s burgeoning shopping district that is quickly expanding local shopping choices – from family shops to a half dozen massive box stores – including a Walmart (said to be the largest in Canada) that is scheduled to pen in mid-September.  The newest shopping collection now includes Canadian Tire, Home Depot, Staples, the Canadian Superstore and London Druges.  No longer just a sleepy town for Kelowna, the Westside outpaced its giant neighbour with an 11.5 percent boom from 2001 to 2006.  “The growth is just exploding on the Westside – not just housing, but business also,” said Leah T, manager of Westbank Chamber of Commerce and a resident for 25 years.  Between lofty new neighbourhoods like Diamond View Estates and Panorama Peaks and desirable lakeshore projects, the Westside real estate is opening up markets to a wide range of new home buyers. The hills are alive with the sound of construction, as somany want to live where they can see the sparkling lake and neighbouring mountains that make a scnitilatting panorama.  From affordable leashold homes on native land to new Westbank condominiums developments around the Westside town centre, the region is also offering starter homes with prices not seen across the lake in Kelowna real estate market.  “It’s a beautiful location that still has the smaller feel with the right amenities,” said Chris I., manager of Sage Creek across the street from shopping and Two Eagles golf course.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2671227277986209633-9022401795760603789?l=www.condo-living-west.com%2Fblog'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2671227277986209633/9022401795760603789/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2671227277986209633&amp;postID=9022401795760603789' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2671227277986209633/posts/default/9022401795760603789'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2671227277986209633/posts/default/9022401795760603789'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.condo-living-west.com/blog/2009/04/kelowna-westside-real-estate-for-sale.html' title='Kelowna Westside Real Estate For Sale - Westbank Developments and Okanagan Communities like Diamond View Estates, Mission Hill and Panorama Peaks'/><author><name>hattrick</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06196711928056578385</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='16568184037038335789'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2671227277986209633.post-378479298768983720</id><published>2008-12-11T16:10:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-31T05:23:40.619-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Page Point Homes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Nanaimo Real Estate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Leisure Cove Destinations'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Ladysmith Property'/><title type='text'>Vancouver Island Waterfront Property for Sale at the Page Point Nanaimo Homes in Ladysmith resort real estate market by Leisure Cove Destinations</title><content type='html'>&lt;h2&gt;The Oceanfront Page Point Ladysmith Lesiure Cove Destination&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now selling a special limited release of select oceanfront homes at Page Point Marina Resort in Ladysmith BC recreational real estate, you can experience the highest quality of finishes in fractional or whole ownership opportunities with spectacular ocean views from ever presale home.

Scuba dive in any season in the protected waters: the Pender Harbour Sunshine Coast is known to be one of the world’s best sites for underwater exploration.  Coined the “Venice of the North” because of its complex maze of waterways and lakes, water taxis are the preferred mode of transportation in and around the area of Pender Harbour Sunshine Coast.  Tour the Chatterbox Falls, a waterfall at the head of Princess Louisa Inlet or take in the newer parks, Millennium Park and wooded Francis Point Marine Park.  Watch for the new luxury condo development, the Painted Boat: Sunshine Coast Resort Homes coming soon.  When complete, the resort will feature a Solarice Wellness Spa plus a 60 slip marina.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Sechelt&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Taking its name from one of the Coast Salish Indian bands, “Sechelt” means land between two waters.  Suitably labelled given that this Sunshine Coast community sits on a sandbar; one one side of Sechelt is the Straight of Georgia and on the other side, Porpoise Bay.  If it weren’t for this small neck of land les than a kilometre wide, a large portion of the peninsula north of Sechelt would be an island, cut off from the mainland.  Sechelt is the Sunshine Coast’s Lower Coast largest town where retirees make up approximately 30 per cent of the population.  Don’t miss the Festival of the Written Arts in August, held annually at the Rockwood Lodge.  The natural seaside beach creates an ideal summer desintation for families where camping, water activities, and golfing make for lasting memories.  Check out the activity underway at Seaview Villa Estates, an exclusive Sunshine Coast Sechelt community in West Sechelt featuring townhomes/garden apartments on three ocean view acres.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Halfmoon Bay&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A sweeping scalloped bay protected from the open sea by South Thormanby Island, this sleepy village at Halfmoon Bay, Sunshine Coast of permanent homes, summer cabins, and five regional parks is a visual feast: check out Halfmoon Bay Lookout for a panoramic view of Welcome Pass, the Thormanby Islands, and Malaspina Strait.  From the Heritage General Store of Susnhine Coast Halfmoon Bay, a gathering place located on the waterfront, access to Redroofs Trail provides a historical and interpretative stroll along a gently pitched, forested walkway.  If you visit in July, join in the Halfmoon Bay Country Fair, a traditional community event in the Sunshine Coast of BC.  Visit the Sargeant Bay Provincial Park, excellent for bird watching, or explore the Smuggler Cover Provincial Marine Park and hike into the wilderness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Roberts Creek&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Funky and eclectic best describes this unconventional community coined the gumboot capital of the world; Robers Creek is part throwback to the ‘60s where hippies add a colourful splash to the offbeat and creative landscape – part progressive community.  Locals at Roberts Creek Sunshine Coast affectionaley known as “Creekers” are a diverse lot; they don’t all hold identical beliefs, but several passionate consistencies emerge as a common thread; they are keen to maintain the rural character of the community of Roberts Creek in the Sunshine Coast, they’re avid supporters of tree and water conservation, they encourage home based businesses and low speed, tree lined roadways, they hold belief in community gatherings, and they choose to preserve a centralized commercial area in keeping with a unique Roberts Creek character.  Harvest fresh mussels or oysters at Sunshine Coast Roberts Creek Picnic grounds, and then reel in a coho or Chinook at nearby Chapman Creek, the only stream on the Sechelt Peninsula where anglers can keep these favoured salmon.  Close by, you can tee-up at one of BC’s golfing jewels, the 18 hole public Sunshine Coast Golf and Country Club.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Earls Cove Sunshine Coast&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the north end of the peninsula, the ferry to Powell River docks at Earl’s Cove, also near Skookumchuck Narrows Provincial Park, where the Skookumchuk, the world’s fastest flowing tidal marine rapids, pass the tidal flow from Sechelt Inlet.  Earls Cove and Egmont are gateway communities for canoeing or kayaking to Sakinaw Lake, which opens to the salt water of the Agamemnon Channel.  The 50 minute BC Ferries trip across Jervis Inlet and up Agamemnon Channel, which travels past Nelson Island to Saltery Bay, is where Highway 101 conteinues to the Upper Sunshine Coast and Powell River.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Powell River BC&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The regional district of Powell River with a population of 19,599 stretches along the lengthy shoreline from Saltery Bay to Lund.  It is renowned for scuba diving with over 100 dive sites int eh immediate vicinity, also considered as one of the best salt and freshwater fishing destinations in Canada.  Jacques Coustea claimed Powell River’s emerald waters were “second only to the Red Sea,” and a dive in these parts quickly reveals why.  The Powell River may be the second shortest river in the world at just 500 metres long, but it connects with a string of Lakes: Powell, Goat and Windsor, which characterizes much of the inland region.  Laying claim to one the mildest climates in the country, year-round temperatures averages 10 degrees and summer varies from 18 to 30 degrees.  The safety and security of a small town such as Powell River with the infrastructure of a major city make it an ideal location to work, live or vacation.  The Powell River Sunshine Coast history as a prosperous foresty community is honoured each year at the Powell River Loggers’ Sports Competition with events such as chainsaw carving, axe throwing and tree climbing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Gibsons&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As of 2006, with a climbing tally of 4.182 residents, Gibson’s population digits are expected to double in the next twenty five years.  The area is made up of mostly families with young children with a higher percentage of single parent homes and fewer people of retirement age.  Just a few minutes west of the Langdale ferry dock, past the small communities of Hopkins and Grantham Landing, Gibsons is considered the main marine getaway to the Sunshine Coast and is experiencing rapid growth and real estate development.  Gibsons is tucked into the sheltered shoreline on Howe Sound to the east, surrounded by Mount Elphinstone to the north, and the Strait of Georgia on the southwest.  Take the Heritage Walk Gibsons to explore the bustling working harbour, stroll along the public wharf and the boardwalk to the vista gazebo, a great place for Fido to stretch his legs.  Buffy’s See Spot Run Pet Services offers pet owners peace of mind on the Sunshine Coast should you need to leave home and your four legged companions behind.  Beyond the harbour’s marine activity, alive with kayakers, sailboats and yachts stop by Molly’s Reach, the site of the 1971 to 1990 Beachcombers CBC series, once a TV soundstage now popular hangout for locals and visitors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Saltery Bay&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the north shore of Jervis Inlet, the Upper Sunshine Coast area is well documented as having some of the best mountain biking trails in the province, most of which are clearly marked with a white mountain bike symbol  There is a challenging ascent at the beginning of your ride on Elephant bay loop at Saltery Bay, a 48 kilometre (30 miles) easy ride that will keep you peddling most of the day.  Some of the best ocean fishing is found in the Lang Creek Estruary at Saltery Bay, approximately 22 kilometres west of the bay ont eh west side of Highway 101.  Beach casting is popular here for spring salmon from mid-September through late October.  A mermaid sighting off shore from Saltrey Bay Provincial Park is imminent: a 3 metre bronzed Emerald Princess is anchored in 18 metres of water, the first underwater statue in Canada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Lund&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Pan American highway (the world’s longest, also named Highway 101 in parts of the US and Canada) begins in Castra on Chile’s south caost and stretches 14,973 kilometres to the public boat ramp beside the feted Lund Hotel in the Sunshine Coast – the end of the road for BC’s Highway 101 on the Sunshine Coast.  Twenty minutes north of Powell River, Lund offers salmon sport fishing right off the breakwater, as well as a boardwalk, craft shops, cafes and restaurants overlooking the Lund Harbour.  Founding Swedes Fred and Charles Thulin named the village Lund after the university town in Sweden and built the first licensed hotel north of Vancouver in 1889; today it remains the heart of the hamlet and the gateway to Desolation Sound.  Take a water taxi to sAvery Island and don’t miss kayaking the Copeland Islands Marine Park, a few miles north of Lund in the Sunshine Coast.  Locally known as the Ragged Islands, this cluster of islands is an oasis of fertile marine gardens with a diverse range of wildlife.  The Raggeds are excellent for day trips, overnighters or as a stopover enroute to Desolation Sound or Cortes Island.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Desolation Sound&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beyond the end of Highway 101, Desololation Sound Marine Park is BC’s largest marine park, with more than 60 kilometres of shoreline and several small islands, bays and coves.  The Desolation Sound of Sunshine Coast exceeds 28 degres claiming the warmets waters in North America north of the Gulf of Mexico, perfect to swim and scuba dive, while the forested upland offers trails and hidden lakes.  Okeover Inlet is quickly becoming oneo f the premier destinations in Desolation Sound; visit the Laughing Oyster for a dynamite dish of gunpowder prawns and take the secret ingredient home with a pack of Garden Gate gourmet herb and spices by chef Dave Bowes. The Sunshine Coast is only accessible from the Lower Mainald by water or air.  Served by BC Ferries from Horseshow Bay in West Vancouver, journey 40 minutes to Langdale on the Sechelt Peninsula where Highway 101 links Langddale with Garden Bay.

However, residents on the Sunshine Coast are exactly wehre they want to be – living life in a destination that possesses all the sun drenched attributes and high lights of a year round vacation – a daily retreat they call home.  A great article by Tracey R for the BC Homes and Resort magazine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Within the 180 kilometre sculpted shoreline stretching from the ink blue waters of Howe Sound to the deep cerulean recesses of Desolation Sound lays a widely refreshing tonic of West Coast fusion.  Seprated by the Jervis Inlet, the Lower Sunshine Coast features winds its way from Port Mellon to Egmont with the livesly communities of Gibsons, Sechelt and Pender Harbour just to name a few, while the Upper Sunshine Coast features Saltry Bay, Powell River and Lund.  The two regions are a scenic overload of exceptional wilderness (Saltry Bay is a trailhead for the 180 kilometre Sunshine Coast Trail, with sections of sub-alpine vegetation and old growth temperate rainforest) and waterways that beckon the avid and novice boater alike.  Ask any seafarer worth his weight in sea salt to name a favourite anchaorage and Desolation Sound Provincial Marine Park will top the list (BC’s largest at 8,256 hectares).  This eclectic verdant Coast seizes the myriad offerings of marine recreation, extreme and soft adventures, intimate spas, sporting activities the likes of golf, cycling and hiking and for those with a cultural beent, a lively First Nations history, galleries, artisan studios, and a vibrant and contemporary arts community that is second to none.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Positioned as a year round destination, these pursuits are enjoyed by over 27,759 lcoals according to the 2006 census an increase of 8.4 per cent from 25,599 residents in 2001.  The influx of people relocating to the Sunshine Coast is no surprise: a particular draw is the pleasant 2,400 hours of annual sunshine (an average of six hours per day), a desirable environment for those who are inclined to seek warmer climes without taking on snowbird status.  According to the 2007 MLS Housing Price Index for single family homes on the Sunshine Coast, the past year has seen very strong home prices for the region.  The Vancouver Real Estate Board reveals that “for the last two years, the sales to listing ratio have maintained a healthy level, between 0.5 and 1.0 one a three month moving average.  The ratio of sales to listings for the Sunshine Coast real estate shows a cyclical pattern, rising in the winter months as new listings drop.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Commuting by Floatplane – Housing Update&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As usual, Pieta W for the Georgia Straight: Dave M lives on the 15th floor of a beachfront condo with a view of the Strait of Georgia, and has a traffic-free, 25 minute commute to his job in Vancouver’s financial district. He pays $1,200 per month toward his mortgage of the beachfront condominium.  What is this insanely convenient, affordable location?  Well, Nanaimo. Dave, the CEO of a Vancouver based investment firm, walks a block to the floatplane dock, spends 20 minutes and $67 on a flight, and arrives in Coal Harbour, two blocks from his downtown office. No gridlock, no Coal Harbour real estate condo price tag. “I’m at home on the Island and sitting at my place by the time other people are just starting to leave downtown,” Dave told the Georgia Straight. “But the problem is, it’s such a good value and so convenient and so efficient, it’s greatly oversubscribed. Just try to get a flight!”  Dave is one of a thousand or so people who commute regularly from Nanaimo to Vancouver for work. That’s an old number collected by the City of Nanaimo from the 2001 Canadian census.  Nanaimo’s acting economic development officer, Amrit told the Straight she’s not sure how many people are commuting these days, but numbers have probably increased.  Add those who commute on the scheduled flights offered by Harbour Air and West Coast Air from Sechelt, the Gulf Islands, and Victoria, and that’s even more people.  According to the Vancouver Island Real Estate Board, during the 12 month period ending in August, the average price of a home in Nanaimo real estate listed on the Multiple Listing Service was $372,669.  In contrast, the average price of a home in Greater Vancouver from January to August was $606,088, according to the B.C. Real Estate Association.  Given the huge price difference, living on Vancouver Island is a deal. “With technology, it’s really possible to be anywhere,” Manhas said, “so why wouldn’t you choose to do that?”  Indeed, the size of the floatplane facilities at Coal Harbour will likely expand by one third if a plan is approved at Vancouver’s development permit board meeting on Monday September 22nd. Architectural group Musson Cattell Mackay Partnership has applied to build a new permanent facility adjacent to the new Vancouver Convention &amp; Exhibition Centre expansion project. On September 16th, city council decided to hold the public hearing about the rezoning set for October 14th.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For folks like Mannix, more floatplanes would mean it would be easier to catch a flight. But for some residents of the neighbourhood, the prospect stinks- literally. Debbie, is the Coal Harbour Residents Association’s floatplane representative. In a single day two weeks ago, she said, a resident counted 202 flights coming and going from the current temporary marina, sending fumes and noise into the adjacent children’s park and neighbourhood. McKeen said that although the CHRA has tried to work with the proponents of the project, and isn’t suggesting the floatplanes shoulnd’t be in the harbour at all, she thinks the new facility could have ben planned to better accommodate people.  McKeen plans to speak at the development permit board meeting and the public hearing. One problem, though, is that the city doesn’t regulate most of the annoyances associated with the floatplanes, according to Vancouver city planner Michelle.  The city’s role is limited to rezoning and approving the development permit for the marina, she said. Planes are regulated by Transport Canada. Harbour Air didn’t return the Straight’s calls by deadline. West Coast Air spokesperson Vera told the Straight she didn’t want to comment on this story.

They’re booked.”&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2671227277986209633-2902439616274620942?l=www.condo-living-west.com%2Fblog'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2671227277986209633/2902439616274620942/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2671227277986209633&amp;postID=2902439616274620942' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2671227277986209633/posts/default/2902439616274620942'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2671227277986209633/posts/default/2902439616274620942'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.condo-living-west.com/blog/2008/12/sunshine-coast-real-estate-and-travel.html' title='Sunshine Coast Real Estate and Travel Information including Reefpoint Cottages along Long Beach and Island View Lanes Townhomes Property'/><author><name>hattrick</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06196711928056578385</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='16568184037038335789'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2671227277986209633.post-4885286505858944753</id><published>2008-12-11T16:01:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-22T15:05:30.448-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Indigo on Lake Osoyoos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Osoyoos Lakefront Property'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='BC Resort Property'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Recreational'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Okanagan Real Estate'/><title type='text'>Update on Osoyoos Real Estate Resort Developments: San Verbena Beach Resort, La Mirada Osoyoos Lakeside, Walnut Beach, 8 Fuji Court, Indigo on Lake</title><content type='html'>&lt;h2&gt;Beyond Your Wildest Expectations at the San Verbena Beach Resort&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An excellent preview of the Okanagan Resort at San Verbena Lake Osoyoos by Susan B for the best resource of new homes and resort properties by Homebase.ca.

For many Vancouverites, that automatically translates to Whistler; where the powder is world class and real estate has long been sky high.  But real estate investors in recreational BC resort real estate willing to travel farther in order to be part of a new, evolving ski experience at a far more attractive price point are watching with keen interest as Hudson Bay Mountain in Smithers unveils an ambitious $75 million plan to transform the community ski hill in Smithers BC into what developer 20/20 Developments hopes will become one of B.C.’s most unique mountain resorts.  This according to 24 Hours and written by Susan B the most trusted writer on new resort BC developments.  The three year plan will see the addition of a second chair lift and 10 new runs, including completion of th eight kilometre Trail to Town, one of the few opportunities in North America where skiers and snowboarders of any ability can ski from the mountain top to the Hudson Bay Mountain village at mountain base in one continuous run.  AT more than 3,700 foot vertical drop, this gives the Smithers Hudson Bay Mountain resort an enviable rating as one of the top five longest ski-out mountains in B.C.  As the first of what will ultimately become a six phased master planned Hudson Bay Smithers Mountain resort real estate community prepares to launch sales on November 17th, home buyers looking for a place to park their recreational investment dollars are taking note.  This presale Smithers Hudson Bay Mountain resort BC real estate initial offering brings 148 fully serviced building lots to the market. These Hudson Bay Mountain Resort BC home sites range from 8,500 to 20,000 plus square feet and at a starting price of $137,900 make an affordable alternative to other; more established and better known ski hills. “Hudson Bay Mountain is the exact opposite experience to what Whistler is,” stresses Lorne, president of 20/20 Developments.  However, like Whistler Resort, its registered design guidelines will maintain the integrity of the community’s overall architectural style and theme of residential development on the Hudson Bay Mountain resort, he added.  “This Smithers real estate project will provide a rare opportunity to build a safe, secure cabin surrounded by nature in a four season Hudson Bay mountain resort with world class fishing and hunting along with an uncrowded and expanding ski operation.”  Dennis MacKay, MLA for Bulkley Valley-Stikine, predicts this expansion of the Smithers Hudson Bay Mountain Resort real estate property in the BC recreational market will attract skiers and snowboarders from beyond B.C. and even Canada, and will help put Smithers on the map as a new destination of choice for skiers and recreational property investors.

Thanks to the generous support of Smithers’ two Rotary Clubs, which raised the money and cleared the bottom 2.9 km of the trail, the dream of one long run to connect the mountain to the town is now a reality. This stretch at the Smithers Ski Resort of Hudson Bay Mountain Alpine BC resort property of the “Trail to Town”, called the Rotary Community Trail, is complemented by a 25-30 vehicle parking lot at the bottom of the trail. Not only does this trail elevate Hudson Bay Mountain in Smithers BC to the ranks of the select few ski hills in North America where a skier or snowboarder can ski from a mountain top down a continuous run to the town at the base of the mountain, it also gives it more than a 3,700 foot vertical drop. The “Trail to Town” now makes Hudson Bay Mountain Smithers BC Resort among the top five longest run mountains in BC! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;BC Ski Resort Real Estate’s Best-Kept Secret&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Smithers is one of British Columbia’s best kept-secrets in tourism,” said B.C.’s Minister of Tourism, Culture and the Arts, Bill Bennett at the official ribbon cutting ceremony for the “Trail to Town”.

The article, "Risky Business?" by Susan M. Boyce in the February issue of BC Homes Magazine, talks about the pros and cons of presale purchases here in the residential and resort Kelowna real estate markets, but more importantly, discusses the importance of medium and long term home value. Boyce writes: While some homebuyers debate whether they are willing to potentially pay more than the assessed value of their property, many industry watchers suggest they should be asking themselves a different, perhaps more traditional question. "People have lost sight of the fact their home is a long-term investment," says Jennifer Podmore Russell, principle of MPC Intelligence. "A home is the place where you actually live, raise a family, and entertain - not a number that you analyze moment by moment." [Mark] Belling [of Fifth Avenue Real Estate] agrees. "If you find the perfect home in the perfect location with all the features and nearby amenities you want, do you put your entire life on hold because there is a chance your pricing may be off by five or 10 percent by the time it completes? And are you willing to take the risk that two or three years later when the development does complete, your dream property - that perfect home, the one that exactly fits your lifestyle - will still be available?" "Historically," Belling adds, "the six percent growth in real estate has held firm over the long term. The hiccup in today's market is a little more severe, but it will pass."...And while the next few years will continue to be "interesting" in the world of real estate, a Chinese proverb offers this insight: The best time to buy real estate was five years ago, the next best time is today. Wishing you the very best from the sunny Okanagan.
