housing market, you're looking for

“The InSight Group and its Longwood com-
© munity continue to do things right. The Amble-
" side phase of building was awarded Canada’s

highest. achievement, the Canadian “Home
; Builders’ SAM award for Best Multi-Family De-
velopment and phase two, Carisbrooke, is now

selling with two more phases to come along in
the spring. In all, 50 landscaped acres will take
centre stage in Nanaimo over the decade fong
buiiding program.

To understand Longwood’s considerable
achievement, it ts necessary to meet builder
Doug Bromage, general manager of InSight
Group Development Corporation, and the
driving force behind this community. His phi-
losophy: “To be as open and honest as possi-
bie. We know our customers have lots of ques-
tions and we make every effort ta involve them
from step one. On-site behind the walls tours.
Opportunities to meet with other residents.
And the invitation to speak with us whenever
they have 2 question.”

Exceeding Industry Standards
To date, Longwood has been constructed well
beyond industry standards. Third party builc-
ing envelope specialist Gary Bawtinheimer
from Gordon Spratt & Associates Ltd. suins up
what he has seen: “We're here as consultants
to help the builder ensure the highest stand-

" ards and details of construction. I go to the.

site on a regular basis and double-check that
everything is being done as it should. in other
words, I'm yet another set of very
denianding eyes.”

As well, all con-
struction finishings

and detailing undergo a team review ihrough
tke builders, Intertech Construction Ltd., who
review and sign off each item.

Designed with Integrity
During the framing stage of Carisbrooke last
year, laSight conducted regularly scheduled
construction tours, welcoming questions from

potential owners, visitors, and neighbours.

The tours were a tremendous success and
opened Carisbrooke’s pre-marketing phase.

Another measure of the communify’s suc-
cess is the close relationship between the de-
veloper and the homeowners. Judi Bledsoe,
stral2 council member, was one of the first
homeowners to arrive in Ambleside.

What sold her on Longwood? She answers
without hesitation: “The quality of construc-

tion. The building and ihe landscaping were

just great. I'd looked at a fot of condominiums
before | bought here. I've been so impressed
with the InSight team. They're al-
ways available and have
bent over backwards to

meet all our needs.”

Yet Longwood is far more than a coliecti: a
of fine homes. Designed with assiduous atten-__
tion to detail. this unique island community
successfully integrates residential and com- :
mercial living. ‘Only a short stroll from your
front door through the neighbourhoods walk
ways, past rose gardens, flowering shrubs, and o
fruit trees, lies the convenience of Longwood. ;
Station, with more than a dozen shops, serv--
ices and restaurants. :
