The Canadian Homebuilder’s Association of Northern BC is putting clients in touch with home builders this weekend through the annual Parade of Homes. With low interest rates, local builder Marnie Martin says her company Rise Construction is very busy. Single family dwelling starts in August in Prince George were at 19, with residential building permits at 11.06 million – a significant increase over the same month in 2016. Martin says young families and empty nesters are the ones looking to build.
