Partners forges ahead in 2022 with new developments

2021 was a banner year at Partners Development Group, as the renowned townhome builder not only enjoyed strong sales through the pandemic, but also saw it introduce its first land development with Homestead.

The team has never been one to rest on its laurels though, and in 2022, Partners is coming out even stronger with the release of more townhome developments in and around Calgary.

“2021 was an exciting year for Partners. We saw a lot of growth as a company, and also diversified our lines of business; moving into land development with our first community – Homestead - taking off,” says Cale Marklund, Marketing Manager at Partners.

“We’re now building townhomes in multiple areas in and around Calgary; with Arrive D’Arcy II in the community of D’Arcy in north Okotoks, and then in Calgary with Arrive Crestmont in Crestmont West, Symon by partners in Evanston, Central by partners in Skyview Ranch, and Journey by partners in Homestead.”

They are adding to the already-stellar line-up in 2022 that Marklund says “will give home buyers a lot more options when looking for their new home.”

First up is Arrive D’Arcy II in the rapidly growing community of D’Arcy in Okotoks by Anthem United. It offers street towns and bungalows, and is the follow-up to their highly successful development, Arrive D’Arcy, the first townhome development in the community. These no-condo-fee townhomes had been such a hit for the easy turnkey lifestyle they offered, and proved popular among young families, couples and downsizers.

Then there is Journey by partners, the first townhome development in their first community of Homestead in NE Calgary. “At Journey, we offer stunning street towns, perfect for downsizers or first-time buyers alike. Buyers get the added peace of mind that we are also the land developer for the community.”

Both Arrive D’Arcy II and Journey by partners are no condo fee developments that provide low-maintenance-living for a wide range of buyers. But more than that is the quality and craftsmanship that runs through all of Partners’ many developments.

“Partners is at the forefront of sustainable innovation,” Marklund says. “Being BuiltGreen certified adds a lot of value for our home buyers when it comes to home durability, environmental friendliness, and savings on utilities. All homes have HRV Hero Series Heat Recovery Ventilators, IBC Tankless Water Heaters and IBC Air Handler all included in our base pricing to save our homeowners hundreds of dollars annually.”

Having said that, Arrive D’Arcy II and Journey by partners still have subtle differences that cater to their particular markets.

Arrive D’Arcy II comes with a variety of home options that attract a wide range of buyers, Marklund says. “The bungalows have been primarily purchased by the downsizing community. Folks form both Calgary and Okotoks, as well as out of province buyers who are looking to move to more of a right-sized home. The townhomes have been a very popular option for both first-time home buyers, as well as young families looking for the next home where they can grow.”

Arrive D’Arcy II has four floorplans to choose from (two townhomes and two bungalows) ranging in size from 1,001 to 1,422 square-feet. Arrive D’Arcy II does include detached double garages and options to add more living space in the basement.

Meanhwile, Journey by partners is favoured by first-time homebuyers “just starting their journey,” quips Marklund. “But it also has its share of downsizers/empty-nesters, as well as a lot of young families that are excited about the prospect of starting out in a new community where they can be a part of making it their own!”

Journey by partners has plenty of flexibility as models can come with anywhere from two- to five-bedrooms, perfect for any need or situation. “We even get multi-generational families looking to live under one roof,” Marklund says. “Journey in Homestead means that you can be close to the hustle and bustle of the city, but being on the east side of Stoney Trail means you still get the peace and quiet you want in a community perfect for young, growing families.”

Journey offers three different unique townhomes for buyers to explore and choose from, mostly in the 1,200 square-feet range. All come with the option to add more valuable living space in the developable basement. Journey also gives home buyers the option to add a detached double or oversized single garage. Otherwise, there is two-car rear parking pads.

These are exciting times for Partners, Marklund says, and both Arrive D’Arcy II and Journey by partners have on-site sales centres that can help interested parties with inquiries.
