2024 is turning into a milestone year at Jayman BUILT, as the renowned homebuilder and land developer is enjoying a winning season with big wins in both of Edmonton’s and Calgary’s premier industry awards. And they’re not done yet.

Jayman won Builder of the Year-Large Volume at this year’s Canadian Home Builders’ Association – Edmonton Region Awards of Excellence in Housing, and the Grand Award for Large Volume Single Family at the BILD Calgary Region Awards. No other homebuilder in recent history has won both awards in the same year.

More recently, Jayman BUILT won the top award for Design Excellence for the third year in a row at the CHBA National Awards.

“We’re more than thrilled with the outcome in these awards,” says Dave Hooge, COO at Jayman BUILT, but the work doesn’t end there.

Even with all these industry recognitions it is getting, Jayman BUILT, as an organization, recognizes that it is building the community itself that makes it all worth it. Their sponsorship of the 2024 Calgary and Edmonton Jayman BUILT MS Walks happening on May 26 is just one of the many ways the homebuilder does give back to the community.

Best of the best

In addition to the Builder of the Year titles in Edmonton and Calgary this year, Jayman BUILT also took home a boatload of awards in each respective organization.

In Calgary this year, Jayman BUILT won awards for Best Multi-Family Community Concept for the Streams of Lake Mahogany; Best Apartment Style $251,000-$350,999 for Les Jardins’ A Suite; Best Apartment Style - $451,000 and Over for the Springs Estate Condominium at The Streams of Lake Mahogany; as well as for Best Sales and Information Centre.

While in Edmonton, they took home awards for Best Single-Family Under $300,000 for The Brady; Best Single-Family $300,000 -$350,000 for The Sonata; Best Design Centre/Show Room for their styleMagic Design Centre; the Environmental Recognition Award for Single-Family Large Volume Builder; Best Net Zero Home for The Karma; and Best Garden/Secondary Suite for The Karma Legal Suite.

They extend the winning streak at the CHBA National Awards handed out on May 10. They took home wins for Best Detached Production Home Under 1,800 square feet for Taylor 24; Best Attached Low-Rise Home (1,500 - 1,800 sq. ft.) for The Brook in The Streams of Lake Mahogany, Calgary. Plus the top Design Excellence Award.

They also plan to have a big presence at the BILD Alberta Awards later on this fall, where they are up for Single-Family, and Multi-Family awards, and also for Developer awards for Southfork in Leduc.

Environmental initiatives

It is no surprise, however, that Jayman BUILT was able to achieve these various award-winning feats, as they have nurtured a culture of innovation in the development of their homes.

They were the first to introduce the most energy efficient homes available in Alberta, including their Quantum Performance Ultra E-Home, achieving Net Zero Certification. Jayman offers four options for an energy efficient home, designed to save you money annually and protect the environment.

Each Jayman BUILT home already includes 10 solar panels, a 96 per cent High Efficiency 2-stage furnace, an active heat recovery ventilation system, among others, that translates into $21,000 in value included in the home. Those 10 solar panels will generate enough electricity to cut homeowner’s electricity bills by up to 50 per cent - nearly half-way to Net Zero energy generation!

Taken together, these can result in $1,300 in annual energy savings and save 4.63 metric tonnes of greenhouse gases per year, which is 33 per cent more energy efficient than the minimum 2023 building code in Alberta requires.

The latest offerings

Jayman BUILT has been busy launching a ton of new developments over the past few months, including Les Jardins townhomes and condo apartments and Park Place of Lake Mahogany townhomes in the multi-family side. Buyers are particularly excited about Magna, the newly released concrete condo towers in the dynamic community of University District, featuring stunning water features, European-inspired kitchens and the highest level of luxury interior finishings that Jayman has ever offered.

New single-family showhomes were also opened in Ambleton in the northwest; Rangeview, Seton and Legacy in the southeast, and Cornerstone in the northeast. Find out more at jayman.com.
