Sandy beaches, stunning sunsets and fair weather.

It can be hard to fi nd a new home in the seaside city of White Rock, where the beaches and views are just some of the advantages of living in such a vibrant, close-knit community.

With a population of 18,250, the oceanside city’s property values have “steadily increased due to White Rock’s attractive setting and amenities,” ac-cording to the city’s website.

But one new home development gives homebuyers the chance to own a new condominium home with a White Rock address and enviable views for reasonable prices: Regency Court.

“We are the only new woodframe construction in White Rock,” notes real estate agent Stewart Peddemors.

Featuring four-storey lowrise wood-frame construction, the stylish homes are designed with creative, open fl oor-plans that maximize the living space in every unit.

Located on Roper Avenue between Merklin and Best streets, the chic col-

lection of condos off ers a central loca-tion right in the heart of White Rock.

And the developer of the new homes lives right in the neighbourhood.

TMC Development, a company that has built and sold more than 1,200 homes in B.C. over the past 33 years, is building Regency Court.

TMC’s owner is a master European builder who lives with his wife and

Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association president and CEO Peter Simpson says it would be a good idea for government to review new-home

er Finance Minister Jim Flaherty introduced more new lending rules on Canadian mortgages last week – the third time he has done so in three years.

Simpson notes a 2009 Canada Mort-gage and Housing Corporation study con-ducted before the HST was introduced shows purchasers in a Metro Vancouver municipality pay the highest percentage

of government-imposed charges on a median-priced home.

An example in the CMHC study high-lights that a $567,207 new home in Surrey means the homeowner pays $108,050 in

L iving in White Rock means more than just purchasing a home

here. It’s about buying into a coveted seaside community that celebrates its unique, vil-lage-like fl avour in a dynamic, yet close-knit way. It’s about being part of a place where you belong. And the beaches and views? Beautiful bonuses.
