With populations getting older, demand for so-called “55+ communities” is on the rise. There are a few of these types of buildings, which restrict occupancy to only those of a certain age (either 50+ or 55+). Here is a look at one of the best of these, Lindenholm Place at 885 Wilkes Ave.
The units in this building are actually “Leasehold” which is different than condo-ownership. Buyers purchase the right to lease the unit, and do not receive the usual ‘Title of Ownership”, as they would with a condo or a house. As such, the sale is governed by the rules of the Land Lease Act, which grants purchasers the right to re-consider their purchase for 7 days, which is now the same time period as granted to condo buyers. One of the benefits is that there are no property taxes for the individual owners to pay, as is the case with condominiums.
The down-side is that a buyer can not get a traditional mortgage for this purchase. The buyer must have the funds to make the purchase outright.
Just as any condo might have restrictions, Lindenholm Place is a strict 55+ building. Additional restrictions include ‘No Pets Allowed”, as well as “No Smoking” anywhere in the building, including inside the suites.
Here is there this community shines: The building, which is all concrete, and built in 1989, features an indoor pool and solarium area. There is a hot tub and sauna room and beautiful sitting area, facing south. There is a large ‘party-room’ with kitchen, library, fireplace and television. This is where residents get together for card games, pot luck dinners and other social events.
Suites, which range in size from about 750 sq feet up to over 1200 sq feet, feature insuite laundry, central air conditioning and large balconies. South-facing suites are nice and bright, and north-facing suites offer an exceptional view of the lake and grounds. There is a garden area which residents can tend, greenery for walking, or relaxing.
There is a free shuttle to local grocery stores a couple of times a week for those who dont drive. For residents who still drive their own vehicle, there is plenty of parking. Many units include an underground parking spot, and the remainder come with an outdoor spot with plugin.
This is a very secure building, with on-site caretaker, security door with intercom and other features.
Monthly fees (which are normally referred to as condo-fees) range from around $500-750, depending on the unit size. As mentioned above, there are no property taxes on top of that, which is a bonus. The fees DO include cablevision (both MTS and SHAW are in the building), as well as water, management fees, parking and amenities. Residents do pay for their own Hydro (lights and heat), which may range in the $40 to $60 per month, depending on location and temperature setting.

Winnipeg Exchange District features the completely renovated building at 110 James Ave, District 110 Condominiums. Updated in 2014 by Streetside Developments, this historic building features 19 condos, from bachelor units to large 2 BR condos. Close to museums, theatres and concert hall.
The Element Condominiums at 155 Sherbrook St. Built 2013 with 44 residential condos. West Broadway, close to Wolseley, Misericordia Hospital, UofW campus..
Located on the east side of the street, from 3040 to 3080 Pembina Hwy. we find the Chimney Ridge Condos.
Chimney Ridge Condos are made up of 98 condos in 5 separate buildings. There are 2 distinct styles of units, each 1100 sq ft in size. One type is the main floor, one-level unit, and the other type is a two-story unit which is actually located ABOVE the main floor condos. This second type of condo requires the owner to walk up one flight of stairs to get to the living-room/dining-room/kitchen space, and then walk up a 2nd flight of stairs to get to the 2 bedrooms and bathroom.
Just the usual condo-restrictions, such as “No Laundry to be hung from the balcony” etc. Pets are allowed, so long as they don’t pose a nuisance to other owners.
Gross Property Taxes are currently at approx. $2115.00 per unit. Of course, as an owner who actually lives in their unit, you would qualify for the Provincial Home Owners Assistance Rebate, similar to when you own a house.
Condo fees are $210 per month, which includes snow removal, property maintenance and management fees. Owners pay for their own hydro, telephone, and water bills.
All units have their own in-suite laundry, and units have one parking spot included. At this time (Jan 2012) no additional parking spots were available for rent, although a neighbouring condo complex WAS renting out a few stalls to owners of Chimney Ridge Condominiums.
This condominium is a bare-bones condo. No pool, fitness room or other amenities, which helps to keep the condo fees nice and low. Of special note is the fact that the main floor units feature a small yard, while the upper condos have a balcony. All units have central furnace and c/air conditioners.
Located right on a bus route of Pembina Hwy, and just south of the University of Manitoba, this condo complex has become very popular with students and property investors who are looking to purchase the units and rent them out.
During the 2 yr period of 2010-2011, condos at Chimney Ridge have sold for between $170,000 and $190,000 (MLS® stats). Looking at sales in 2016, prices have remained fairly stable, with units selling btw $160K and $187K.
Townhouse condos are a great real estate investment. Here’s why. https://t.co/MS7WzwMfd3

River Creek Estates, built over a number of years, feature 5 concrete buildings, each 6 stories tall, with 30 condos per building. The main floor of each building is comprised of the indoor parkade, as well as the entrance hallway to the building, and a small fitness room. The 30 condo units make up the next 5 floors, 6 units per floor. Units range from 950 to 1320 sq feet in size.
It appears that each building has been registered as a separate corporation. This would mean that each building is free to set their own rules and by-laws. For example, I noticed in one building that the condo fees included a cable-package, while in others it did not. I also noted pets coming out of one building, but saw other listings which said “Pets Restricted”…. so you have to look carefully at each condo rules and by-laws.
Gross Property Taxes range between $1500 and $2700 per year, gross Of course, as an owner who actually lives in their unit, you would qualify for the Provincial Home Owners Assistance Rebate, similar to when you own a house.
Condo fees range between $275.00 and $390 per month, depending on unit size. While that may seem high, at first, these condo fees include heat, hydro, water, parking and the usual condo management fees and niceties, such as snow clearing, grass cutting and contribution to a common reserve fund.
All units have their own insuite laundry room, and usually have one (or more) indoor parking spot included.
Each building has a small fitness room on the main floor. Other bonuses are the central air and heat (no baseboard heaters). Units with numbers 04, 05 and 06 face the river and creek, while the others face towards the centre parking lot. In additon, the 2nd floor suites of 04, 05 and 06 have exclusive access to a 1400 sq ft patio (each).
Located at 6940 Henderson Hwy at Lockport, easily reached by driving north on Hwy 59, or Henderson Hwy or Main St.
During the 2 yr period of 2011-2012, condos at River Creek Estates have been selling for bet. $200,000 and $280,000, depending on size and location within the building. (MLS® stats)
