From an industrial site to a park — introducing Miyíw̓ts Park in Squamish. Last week, we celebrated the official opening of Miyíw̓ts Park at our SEAandSKY masterplan community in partnership with Kingswood Properties and the District of Squamish. Miyíw̓ts means "riverbank" in the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh sníchim (Squamish language). The park's name is in recognition of its position on the southeast side of the Mamquam Blind Channel, where a channel of the Squamish River once ended. This green space is a step forward in the transformation of a former industrial site into a walkable community that will have more than 1,500 homes, a daycare, amenity centre and a village plaza with retail and commercial spaces – all connected to Downtown Squamish by the future pedestrian bridge.

This fall we are bringing 195 pet-friendly rental homes to an already-thriving community at SEAandSKY. As one of B.C.’s fastest-growing cities, Squamish has tons to offer, and our 53-acre masterplan community is perfectly positioned along Howe Sound, connecting residents with both Downtown Squamish and nearby trails.  Adding two purpose-built rental buildings to a growing number of condos and townhomes is the perfect opportunity for first-time buyers, or existing renters, to access the housing market within the same community by using our BPI Equity program. Tenants can save a portion of their monthly rent towards buying a future home at SEAandSKY without losing their community and amenities.  Learn more about SEAandSKY: https://lnkd.in/g5ssNmfp and BPI Equity: https://lnkd.in/gXXEA35x #SEAandSKYSquamish #BosaProperties #BosaPropertiesRental Kingswood Properties

Our rental properties are long-term homes and community hubs that invite connection. B.C. has one of the highest proportion of renters in the country, and we believe that by building high-quality rental homes with thoughtful amenities, renting can be an equally desirable option as homeowning.  With nearly 5,000 modern rental homes in our pipeline – all pet-friendly with highly-rated on-site care – more and more of our customers are happy to continue renting for the flexibility and ease it brings to their lives. Because meeting our customers' current and potential future needs is important to us – we also want to provide options for our renters who would like to work towards homeownership. Our BPI Equity program allows residents to put a portion of their monthly rent towards the future purchase of a Bosa Properties home. Hear from our existing residents who have had success transitioning into homeownership with the help of this program.

This week’s decision by the Bank of Canada to lower its key interest rate for the first time in more than four years is a positive signal for the real estate market.  Higher interest rates have made it more expensive to build housing, ultimately bringing housing starts down when the number of homes being built in Metro Vancouver needs to be significantly scaled up to keep pace with population growth. While sustained cuts are needed to have a significant impact on the construction of homes, this week’s reduction is a signal to homebuyers of better days ahead – particularly for buyers of pre-sale homes completing in the coming years.  While none of us can predict where the market will go, Bosa Properties will continue to do what has allowed us to withstand fluctuations in the market for more than 35 years: delivering on our promises and maintaining trusted relationships with our customers and partners. 

Solhouse 6035, located at the edge of Central Park in Burnaby, hosts expansive all-season balconies that expand the home’s living space by up to 35% – bringing the outside in, year-round and supporting how our customers want to live. We are partnering with Lumon Group, an innovative Finnish company world-renowned for its retractable balcony glazing systems that give more room for life, while also providing energy savings and noise reduction. At 50 storeys, Solhouse will be the tallest building globally to incorporate this technology. Lumon has decades of trusted experience and, together, we are delivering quality at scale – ultimately creating more livable space for people to thrive.

We are seeing signals that the market is heating up in Surrey. Our first release at PARKWAY 2 was full of buzz and energy, selling out in its opening weekend. To keep that positive momentum and capture customer demand, we are pulling up our planned fall release of fresh inventory.   Surrey is one of the fastest-growing cities in Canada, which is one of the reasons we have invested so heavily in supporting it to deliver on that potential. PARKWAY is a four-tower masterplan that invites the community to connect through its centralized amenities and commercial retailers – that tie the towers together to create an activated ground plane. A block away from the SkyTrain, City Hall – and easily accessible to SFU Surrey, KPU and future UBC Health Professional and SFU Medical School Campuses – PARKWAY is positioned to become the heart of Surrey’s new downtown.   This launch is on the heels of a successful handover of over 750 homes at University District last fall across two towers – an integral part of our commitment to Surrey which includes over 6,000 homes delivered or in development.   There is a lot to love about the vision for Surrey and we are glad to be contributing to its growth.   Learn more about PARKWAY here: https://lnkd.in/gms7BpuH And read the latest articles.

Bosa Properties recently launched the second tower at PARKWAY, our masterplan community in downtown Surrey, selling out the first release of homes in its opening weekend. It’s exciting to see such strong demand in one of Canada’s fastest growing cities and—as a result — we are releasing the second wave of inventory ahead of our planned fall dates. Inspired by the culture and connection Surrey offers, PARKWAY is set to redefine the downtown core. Very proud of the work of our team and partners Perkins&Will, McKinley Studios, PWL Partnership Landscape Architects Inc. and Axiom Builders to bring this project to life. Come take a look at our new inventory at the sales gallery.

Unveiling a new concept for Vancouver — a combined hotel and rental offering that meets the evolving needs of our city.  Through our newly announced partnership with the Listel Hospitality Group, we will redevelop The Listel Hotel Vancouver into a new multifunctional urban destination — bringing 174 hotel rooms, 126 purpose-built rental homes and a collection of thoughtful amenities and hospitality services that enhance the experience of our customers, while adding to the vibrancy of the West End.   Designed by Henriquez Partners Architects, the project will address the growing need for hotel — with an estimated 20,000 new hotel rooms required in Metro Vancouver by 2050 — and rental housing; a key focus of ours as we look to build more than 4,000 purpose-built rental homes in the years ahead.

Our Fifteen Fifteen project, in partnership with Kingswood Properties, is on its way to making its mark on the Vancouver skyline.     We’ve surpassed another key milestone, excavating down 110 ft to P8 — beginning the process of building up 42 storeys.     The building silhouette will highlight Büro Ole Scheeren's distinctive design, featuring six glass-enclosed cantilevers suspended at up to 40 ft out from the building. To hoist these prefabricated cantilevered structures up from the base of the site, this project requires a specialized luffing crane, currently the largest in Canada with an impressive weight capacity of 35,270 lbs.     This is precision-driven architecture at its best — thanks to our trusted partners, Glotman Simpson Consulting Engineers, Francl Architecture Inc. and Axiom Builders.     Learn more about Fifteen Fifteen: https://lnkd.in/g9EKjGCD   #FifteenFifteenbyOleScheeren #BosaProperties
