We have recently received many inquiries about home renovations tax credits and we have good news!
The 2015 federal budget introduced a new home accessibility tax credit to help seniors, disabled Canadians and their families pay for certain home renovations, but it doesn't go into effect until 2016. So now is good time to start planning for 2016.

As the cost of urban land rises and the space available for development is shrinking, building a new home in the city is becoming more of a challenge than ever before. However, there is still a great deal of opportunity for building a comfortable infill within the Calgary area. By applying the skills and innovative design solutions, it is possible to build a modern and functional infill that reduces urban sprawl, the resource consumption and yields excellent rewards for the homeowner.
Here are some great examples of urban infills that are both aesthetically pleasing and functional:
Front to Back Infill by Ottawa's Colizza Bruni Architecture
The First Avenue Semi-detached by Ottawa's Colizza Bruni Architecture
Best Custom Urban Infill – 2011 by Ottawa's Christopher Simmonds Architects
