Parade of Homes passes 100 mark
The 2009 Spring Parade of Homes has passed the 100 mark for the first time in its history. This year, 103 new homes will be on display for public viewing during the parade, which runs from March 7 to March 22.
Hours for visiting are Monday through Thursday from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from noon to 6 p.m. Each home will have a well-informed sales representative present to welcome you, show you all facets of the new home and answer any questions you may have.
This year, 40 builders are participating in the Spring Parade with homes in 34 different subdivisions located in nine cities and towns in Manitoba. So, whether one wants to live in Winnipeg or in a neighbouring community, there's the perfect new home available. Quality, value and affordability are all key components of a Manitoba new home.
This year's parade theme is Now is the Best Time to Build. We offer many points to substantiate this. Following are just a few items to consider:
- Mortgage rates are at all-time lows.
- Manitoba new homes are the most energy efficient in Canada.
- Manitoba's employment rate is among the highest in the country.
- Canada's banking system was recently rated as the best and most reliable in the world.
- Style, selection and variety are tremendous.
- Manitoba new homes continue to increase in value.
- A new home is an investment in your family's future.
The public is invited to visit as many homes as possible to look at innovative designs and see the latest and best in new homes features, all created by professional builder members of the Manitoba Home Builders' Association.
Each visitor is sure to come away with new ideas and concepts to incorporate into their new homes.
