Imagine purchasing a new passive home in a sought-after Vancouver neighourhood and the developer throws in an electric car! That’s what DIMEX Group did. A leader in sustainable homes, the developer recently announced it sold out its East Vancouver Templeton collection of three-bedroom F-Plan homes, all of which came with a FREE Tesla. As sustainable living becomes an increasingly important discussion, passive homes and electric vehicles have firmly planted themselves in the consciousness of Vancouverites.

Mark your calendars for Thursday, Jan. 27

The Urban Development Institute’s (UDI) 2022 January Forecast luncheon will host a panel of industry experts who will provide valuable insight into everything to do with housing – rental, industrial, residential and commercial.

Some of the speakers include Anne McMullin, president and CEO of UDI; moderator Ward McAllister, president and CEO of Ledingham McAllister; and Colin Bosa, CEO of Bosa Properties, to name a few.
