You may have heard that Calgary’s residential market is red hot right now. Strong sales have taken many new home builders by surprise (albeit, a pleasant one) and some have even been struggling to keep inventory.

Prevailing circumstances may just make it ideal for anyone thinking of buying their first home to make the jump. Mortgage rates are still extremely low, there are tons of choices available especially for new homes. And if circumstances are forcing you to shelter in place for extended periods of time, wouldn’t you want to be in a place of your own and that you love?

But stepping into such a big life-changing commitment, it’s normal to have doubts. That’s why a lot of homebuilders offer further assurances that can help new home buyers make the decision. We talk to a couple who just bought their first home about their experience, and to Excel Homes and Trico Homes, two local builders who specialize in the first-time buyer market, for some expert advice.

Trico Homes has made another major contribution to community recreation and wellness in Calgary.

The builder has extended its naming sponsorship with the Trico Centre to 20 years, committing $2 million to the 38-year-old southeast Calgary facility in Willow Park.

Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi lauds the veteran builder’s continued support.

“We can pay tribute to everyone at Trico Homes, especially Wayne, Eleanor (Wayne’s wife), and the Chiu family for the remarkable commitment they have shown to Calgary, to building an inclusive community for everyone,” says Nenshi. “Back in 2008, it was a big deal when this not-particularly-ginormous firm made such a huge investment in wellness and in Calgary with the naming,

After a busy day at work, preparing a meal, cleaning up afterwards and helping their children with questions about their homework, it’s a well-earned time to relax. Such an opportunity can be found in the Monroe by Trico Homes. This 2,260-square-foot front-drive single-family home is presented as a show home in Seton.

Trico Homes, founded in Calgary Alberta, was in search of a solution to improve home buyer’s website experience while also bringing more potential customers to their show homes. As 51% of people buy homes they found online, it is essential for Trico, and other home builders, to optimize the online experience to educate and nurture customers earlier in the home buying process.

Trico Homes deeply values each stage of the home buying journey and wanted to create an optimal experience for their customers. Buying a home is not a one-size-fits-all experience, so why do all home buyers often experience the same online shopping experience as the next person? By providing a personalized website experience, each unique home buyer is guided down their unique path to purchase, ultimately increasing the likelihood of conversion and accelerating the sales cycle.
