If you’ve been dreaming of a home that feels like it was made just for you but doesn’t come with the hefty price or effort of a fully custom build, you’re in luck. The current market is making semi-custom homes an incredibly appealing choice, combining flexibility with smart spending. Here’s a look at why a semi-custom home could be just what you’re looking for right now.
Get the Custom Feel (Without the Custom Price)
With a semi-custom home, you get to make design choices that reflect your personality—whether that’s a sleek modern kitchen, a cozy reading nook, or custom flooring options. You’re not limited to cookie-cutter finishes, and you don’t have to pay for the full custom experience, either. It’s the best of both worlds: a home that feels like you, at a cost that feels right.
Lower Rates, More Options
The drop in mortgage rates mean you can lock in lower monthly payments, giving you flexibility to focus your budget on the upgrades you really want. And with the new 30-year amortization for new builds (effective December 15), you’ll have even more breathing room to go for those extra touches, like a chef’s kitchen or a coffee bar, without straining your finances.
Long-Term Value
Right now, there are appealing lots and personalized inventory homes available in sought-after neighborhoods in Edmonton. With today’s lower interest rates, more buyers are entering the market, which means these options won’t remain available for long. If you’ve been considering a particular area of style, now is a good time to explore these semi-custom options while they’re still open.
Added Value and Incentives
In addition to the flexibility of semi-custom design, City Homes is making it easier to expand your living space right now from the start with a $25,000 incentive toward a finished basement. This incentive allows you to create a space that works for your lifestyle, whether it’s adding a family room, home office, or even a personal gym. It’s a way to add both value and functionality to your home immediately, all while staying within your budget. With City Homes, you get a semi-custom home designed around your needs—with the added bonus of more space to enjoy from day one.
Today’s market conditions make a semi-custom home a great choice for anyone looking to balance personal style, financial flexibility, and a smart investment. With lower interest rates, prime locations, and appealing incentives, there’s never been a better time to go semi-custom and secure a home that fits both your lifestyle and your budget.
