The bulk of the major projects still underway at BELLA are on the exterior of the project. Now that the heavy construction on the building has been completed, and the scaffolding has been removed, it is time to begin finishing off the site. The month of December proved to be quite rainy (not a big surprise to those of us on the West Coast) which ended up pushing the main concrete pour date back until a few days before Christmas.

The good news is that we received a reprieve from the wet weather and were able to complete the parking area at the back of the building, along with some of the front sidewalk, planters and other structural work required for the landscaping. Post-holidays the team is back at work and has been taking advantage of the dry weather to get caught up on many of the remaining exterior projects. The sales team will be onsite again this weekend and the show suite will be available for viewing on Saturday & Sunday from 12-5pm.

The holiday sales season has been a very busy one – surpassing our expectations, and we look to be approaching a sell out early in 2010. If you have your eye on a specific unit, or are looking for a new condominium in the Burnaby area, come on down and take a peek. The value cannot be beat, and there are still a few deals remaining. From Edmonds & Canada Way, have yourselves a Bella day!

Merry Christmas & Happy new year from the team at BELLA. We wish everyone a great holiday season, and look forward to seeing you in the new year. The show suite and sales center will be closed over Christmas, but will reopen Saturday January 2nd and Sunday January 3rd. We look forward to seeing you then!

The day we have been waiting for has arrived – the scaffolding on the front of the building has been removed, marking the beginning of the final phase of construction on the project. For those the have been watching the project, this is the first time that you truly get a glimpse of the final product, and we are proud to say that it looks amazing.

From this point, the crew’s job is to get down to the details. Inside the building carpet is being installed, and the common areas are being cleaned & finished up. The majority of the homes are virtually complete now, and the elevator is almost ready for public use. Over the next couple weeks you will see the landscaping begin to develop out front, and we will be planting the trees along the Edmonds side. Railings and other details will also be installed soon, and then the big clean begins!

Sales are proceeding briskly, and we are now over 60% sold and climbing. The sales center and show suite will be open this weekend, so if you have been planning on taking a look at BELLA, now is your chance to get a glimpse of the final product. We are still on schedule for completion this month, and there are still some view units available. For more information on availability, please contact a member of our sales team, or send us an email at info@bellaliving.ca – we look forward to hearing from you.

Busy busy times at the BELLA show center over the last couple weeks! A big thank you goes out to our sales team from Sutton West Coast who have been working diligently, writing offers and bringing us over the 50% sold mark. They have done a fantastic job of bringing in buyers and showing them that there is more to life than a tiny condo! There is nothing more exciting than seeing a purchaser find the home of their dreams, for less than they were planning to spend. It has been a wonderful year, and we are looking forward to handing over the keys to our purchasers in the very near future.

We thought we would take a moment and let you know that there are still some amazing units available, brand new & ready to move into this coming January. You will not find this kind of value ANYWHERE else in Burnaby, and we would love to show you what sets BELLA apart.  Our remaining units are priced at an average of $375 per square foot, and there are many units left that are over 1000sqft. We are trying our best to keep the floorplans page updated with current availability, but if you have your eye on a specific unit, then please get down and talk to the sales team – you don’t want to miss your opportunity to own the best value in Burnaby.

We are also REALLY looking forward to getting the first glimpse of the front of the building this week, as the masonry and brickwork has been completed & the scaffolding is set to come down – it should be an exciting moment, and we will do our best to have a video for you showing the progress.

As always, the sales center is open Saturday & Sunday form 12-5pm, Come on down and take advantage of the savings at BELLA before they disappear!
