- 18. Contemporary Architecture Myths • It is a fad • It is more expensive • It will have market resistance on the style • It will have market resistance based on the resale value • You cannot mix it with traditional styles Reality • It is an evolution that started years ago • It is not necessarily more expensive • It has gained higher resale value in some cases because it is current and it is differentiated from old stock housing • Competitive advantage: the builder ‘gets’ the buyer, the product is relevant • Large builders are selling it • It is popular from medium density projects to large and affluent custom homes • Buyer demographics (ethnicity, millennials) has changed. They are more open to innovation • Look internationally; fashion, art technology and architecture are not restricted by borders
- 19. Contemporary Architecture Current Trends in the Marketplace • It is incorporated almost always within medium density sites in the City of Toronto • Approximately 30% of the new projects being offered in the 905 have an option for buying a home with a contemporary elevation • This increases to approximately 70% in Markham and Richmond Hill • It is universally popular and sold in many different communities including Whitby, Oakville, Sharon, Milton, Hamilton, Innisfil • Where offered, it sells at a rate between 40 to 60%. (Quite frankly 20% is good enough; from a streetscape perspective, neighbourhoods are enriched and have more personality by the diversity in styles.)
