1. R-2000 represents a way of building homes, not a specific design, style or type of home. Virtually any home can become an R-2000 home.
2. R-2000 homes are built to the R-2000 Standard—a series of strict technical requirements for energy efficiency, indoor air quality and environmental responsibility, above and beyond anything required by building codes.
3. The R-2000 Standard is voluntary. Builders choose to build R-2000 homes because they believe that the technology is superior to conventional construction and they want to provide their customers with a better built home.
4. Every R-2000 builder has taken extra training in advanced design and construction techniques. And every R-2000 builder has a license to prove it. Only licensed R-2000 builders can offer you an R-2000 home.
5. R-2000 homes are not experimental. They use only proven technology, proven techniques and proven products.
6. The R-2000 Standard is updated periodically to reflect the latest research and developments in the industry, and to keep R-2000 on the leading edge.
7. Every R-2000 home goes through a strict independent quality assurance process of testing and verification from beginning to end, from blueprint to completion. No other homes offer this level of quality assurance.
8. Every R-2000 home is certified. Once a home has passed all tests and inspections, you will receive a numbered certificate from the Government of Canada—your proof that you own an R-2000 home.
9. Only certified homes are R-2000 homes. Homes that are “almost R-2000″ or “as good as” or “built to the standard but not certified”…don’t count, because those homes don’t have quality assured performance.
10. Amid growing concerns over greenhouse gasses and global warming, R-2000 provides a model for environmentally responsible housing, both in Canada and around the world.

In an Economic Research paper done by Royal Bank of Canada it states that Alberta (has) benefits of a strong affordability on the way. Alberta does have the lowest affordability of all the provinces but is going to continue to get better. Because of the decrease of unemployment in the second quarter Alberta’s resale activity is going to continue to get stronger in the periods ahead.

This shows that the housing market is only going to grow and become stronger. So why not build a new home today while the market is still low then when it becomes stronger your market value for your new home will skyrocket.
