It feels like the September has flown by, but the fall weather has certainly arrived and October is just a few days away.
And just as quickly, the 2018 Fall Parade of Homes will officially end Sunday at 6 p.m.
But that doesn’t mean your chance to visit Manitoba’s newest and finest show homes will also end on Sunday evening.
Almost all of the show homes that have been part of this fall’s parade will remain open for viewing well after the Parade of Homes ends.
While the past two weeks of this year’s parade have seen colder and wetter weather settle in, MHBA builders have continued to see outstanding crowds visiting the 138 new homes entered in the Parade of Homes.
This year’s entrants did not disappoint, providing an amazing collection of design, style, quality, craftsmanship and choice for viewing during the parade.
Our fall and spring Parades of Homes are showcase events hosted by the Manitoba Home Builders’ Association that demonstrate the best the new-home-building industry has to offer.
Whether one is in the market for a new home, considering a change or just looking for ideas for their current home, no other Parade of Homes in Canada provides the opportunity for people to experience such a collection of new-home concepts, features and decor.
For those who weren’t able to visit show homes during the parade, you can still visit these beautiful homes.
Many of the show homes entered in the parade are open year-round for viewing.
The hours may be slightly different than during the parade, but the sales representatives in the new homes are still available to help you with your search for the perfect home.
So, if you need to take another look at a couple of homes before making your decision, they are open and ready to welcome you.
A digital version of the fall parade magazine is available at the Manitoba Home Builders’ Association website at homebuilders.mb.ca and will remain posted there right up until next year’s spring parade.
All the show homes are featured on our Parade of Homes website, along with the contact information for each show-home builder, so that you can connect with them directly to inquire about visiting your favourite show homes, even after the parade has ended.
We also look forward to announcing the 2018 Fall Parade of Homes’ winning entries Oct. 12.
Watch for the winners to be featured on the MHBA website and through our Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts.
We will be celebrating the best of the best and we encourage you to see if your favourite parade home is an award winner this year.
We would love to have you visit the various show homes today and Sunday between noon and 6 p.m., but if you are unable to get there during the fall parade, the homes will still be open afterwards.
See you this weekend at the Fall Parade of Homes!
