The Construction Source

THE CONSTRUCTION SOURCE CANADA In addition to their value proposition, Robb also credits success to the appeal of Chatham-Kent. Themunicipality offers great dining, shopping, beaches, parks, programs and nationally-renowned events and attractions. It is also a safe and liveable community for families, couples, and individuals at all stages of life, with “tons to offer from childhood to retirement.” Maple City Homes’ subdivisions are particularly well-located, he adds. Their current subdivision – ‘The Meadows,’ comprising roughly 385 lots – is only about three minutes from the 401. That means it is only 45 minutes from Windsor and Detroit, and only 50 minutes from London. Despite the short distance, Robb says comparable homes in those areas are much more expensive. “You can get a 1,400 square foot three bedroom raised ranch from us for about $350,000. A similar house in Windsor or London would cost somewhere around $500,000. Same home, same size lot, $200,000 cheaper in Chatham-Kent.” “People can afford our homes,” he reiterates. “That’s important to us. It always will be.”
