As Canadians leave major cities seeking affordability and quality of life, many are choosing quick-possession homes that are stylish, functional, and energy-efficient.
Many home buyers have their sights set on St. Thomas, a growing community near London, Ont., which offers excellent value. What’s not to like about affordable homes with more living space? A quiet, small-town lifestyle, yet close to big-city amenities. Convenient access to green space and Lake Erie. And traffic congestion and long commutes? A thing of the past.
Doug Tarry Homes is a family-owned Ontario builder with seven decades of experience specializing in sustainable, energy-efficient homes in St. Thomas. While homebuilding is its specialty, the company’s team also cares deeply about social impact and strives to foster vibrant communities in every neighbourhood they develop.
First-time home buyers get a boost on home ownership
Purchasing a first home is a big deal, and Doug Tarry Homes makes it easy to get the keys. Not only does it offer over 40 different home plans to suit every budget, but it also has a $5,000 first-time home buyers’ program. Already own a home? Doug Tarry Homes has deals for you too.
If more Canadians are choosing to live in smaller communities, there’s also a growing trend of people seeking quick-possession homes, which are newly built — either move-in ready or nearing completion. These homes are designed for those who want the benefits of a brand-new home without the longer construction timeline. “For home buyers, the advantages are huge,” says Suzie Dennis, Vice-President of Marketing at Doug Tarry Homes. “Quick-possession homes offer faster move-in dates, greater certainty around timelines, and the opportunity to see the finished space before purchasing.”
Quick-possession homes don’t mean sacrificing quality. They’re built to high standards and ideal for those seeking a turnkey experience. By utilizing innovative design, advanced technology, and superior workmanship, Doug Tarry Homes builds homes that are ahead of today’s building practices.
Comfortable living and long-term savings
A huge consideration for many home buyers is energy efficiency. Net Zero Ready homes are designed and built to be significantly more energy-efficient than a traditional home. There are three basic elements when designing and building a Net Zero Ready home: reduce the home’s energy requirements, include renewable energy systems, and operate the home more efficiently. Net Zero Ready homes offer lower energy consumption, improved comfort, healthier indoor living, and the potential for substantially reduced utility costs, all while supporting a more sustainable way of living.
“Every home we build is designed to meet Net Zero Ready standards. Rather than offering it as an upgrade, we’ve made energy efficiency, comfort, and long-term sustainability our baseline.”
“We’ve seen strong interest in high-performance housing. Every home we build is designed to meet Net Zero Ready standards,” says Dennis. “Rather than offering it as an upgrade, we’ve made energy efficiency, comfort, and long-term sustainability our baseline.”
Energy efficiency doesn’t mean limiting design choices. Home buyers still enjoy a wide range of floor plans, layouts, and interior selections. With the guidance of Doug Tarry Homes’ décor team, homeowners can personalize finishes, fixtures, and features to reflect their style while still benefiting from a home built for exceptional performance.
