Phase 1 in January
Servicing and infrastructure are being prepared at the site, and construction of Phase I of townhomes is expected to begin in mid-January of 2018. CIM says the project is expected to be completed during the fall of 2019.
CIM International has invested $10 million in capital into CIM Mackenzie Creek Limited Partnership and says it will receive an annual distribution of $2 million for a three-year term.
The project is situated about 30 minutes north of Toronto, with easy access to both Highways 404 and 407. The York Region transit system and Mount Joy GO Transit station both service the community.
The CF Markville shopping centre and other retail areas are within a five-minute drive, according to the Mackenzie Creek development’s website. Schools are already established in the Bur Oak Community neighbourhood.
Townhomes in the project range in price from about $750,000 to $1 million. Phase II prices start at $850,000.
