A Message from Cantiro Homes’ President

By Cantiro Homes

For those of you considering purchasing a new home, we would like to share a message about the current climate of our industry and how Cantiro can help. 

From Covid-19 to supply chain issues and rising interest rates, the last two years have seen many challenges and fast-moving changes for our customers. We understand that this leads to confusion and introduces undue stress into an experience that should be exciting.

Building communities and new beginnings for families has been our honor and privilege for close to 30 years.  Major life milestones are at the heart of our business; whether it be a wedding, a baby (or two), children leaving home, a new job, new families forming, blended families or new families moving to town, we are committed to creating the environments for amazing lives to happen.  

You may be asking yourself:

Is now a good time to buy?
What is a fair price today?
What happens if prices go down after you buy?
Will interest rates keep going up?
 

These are all great questions that can add unnecessary stress to a big life decision such as buying a new home.

While things have calmed slightly in the last few weeks, you may be hearing national headlines like, “a sharp correction is coming” to housing prices. Those headlines, however, don’t tell the whole story. Recently, ATB Economists reported, while this correction may happen in larger cities like Toronto and Vancouver, a major correction is not projected for Edmonton. 

We agree and would like to provide you with additional assurance to alleviate these concerns, giving you and your family the confidence to move forward. For a limited time on select homes, we have created three simple ways to help.

Passing Savings On To You

First, we have identified savings in select quick possession homes that will be ready for you to move in starting in September. Over the build period of these homes, we were able to purchase materials and land prior to major price increases and negotiate trade discounts bringing their final costs below projections and we are sharing these savings with you. 

Guaranteed Best Price

Second, after you buy, if the base model price of that home comes down within one year of your purchase, we will refund you the difference.

Reducing Your Mortgage Payments 

Finally, for the first two years, we will also pay you up to $500 per month based on a 1.5% decrease in the interest rate on your mortgage payment on all homes sold prior for a limited time.

In addition, we have also negotiated a special 5-year interest rate for you with ATB for all home purchases if you wish to use it.

We believe these three simple ways can help you move forward with peace of mind to purchase your next home.

I encourage you to look through our homes online, visit one of our show homes or take a self-guided tour to see what’s available throughout Edmonton, Spruce Grove and Sherwood Park. Our sales team is available to answer your questions or inquiries at any time.

Thank you for taking the time to hear our message; we look forward to contributing to your next amazing moment. 

Ryan Smith 
President, Cantiro Homes
