From September 26 to October 4, some of the Lower Mainland’s most prominent builders featured 57 showhomes at 26 homesites in eight municipalities – Anmore, Burnaby, Coquitlam, Langley, Maple Ridge, New Westminster, Richmond and Surrey.

The 15 participating builders were Adera, Ambros, Boffo, Clay, Cressey, Domani, Foxridge, Intracorp, Morningstar, ParkLane, Polygon, Portrait, Sonoma, Vesta and Wallmark.

The Homeowner Protection Office, the provincial Crown corporation responsible for licensing residential builders and facilitating the provision of home warranty insurance, was a primary sponsor.

The event offered a range of home types and prices. At the low end of the price scale was space-efficient Cloverdale condo, while the highest-priced home is a luxurious, custom-built home in Anmore. Also available are Langley estate lots, where you can tour an 8,300 sq. ft. country home built on one of these extraordinary lots.

The homes offered characteristics that appeal to all tastes and preferences – sumptuous kitchens, lavish bathrooms, designer colour pallettes, vaulted ceilings, panoramic views, popular architectural styles, resort-style amenity complexes and a wealth of creature comforts.

Open House has concluded, but many of the showhomes are still open for viewing.  For details on a particular project, contact the builder.

Thank you to NewLocal Home, a Black Press publication -- the primary media sponsor for Open House.  Also thank you to New Home Buyers Guide, Shaw Cablesystems and the other local media for promoting this event.
