One example: “When we first started we did not envision replacing all the siding, all the roofs. That’s what we ended up doing because as soon as we started doing one part, [we discovered] it was falling apart,” said Moy, who had originally estimated the renos would cost $1 million.

So if the original projection was $1 million but the project comes in at 13x the cost, what does that do to the financials?

Makes it a standard government project.

The sales campaign is launching soon

When is soon? One of the largest residential projects ever in Victoria and still no info on anything? Some nice details on this project, real granite around the windows.

Aragon is hoping for the first occupancy permit this fall, Moy said. Aragon has not carried out pre-sales. It only sells completed projects

That is going to be a ton of inventory to absorb in a slow condo market.

Sooke Harbour House and Rosemead House are back in business

Customers are once again walking through the doors of the renowned Sooke Harbour House in Sooke and Rosemead House in Esquimalt after each was closed for several years due to financial woes.

I was contacted by the sales team for Oakwoods recently. Sounds like they'll be starting sales at the end of may. Has anyone been to the restaurant there yet?

Yes, the restaurant was quite nice. The parking was a bit of a sh*t show as it was valet only. Easy drop off...chaotic retrieval. Everyone standing in the lobby hoping for an Escalade....whether they brought one or not.
