//EDITOR’S NOTE

Even though the � rst day of spring is actually March 20 (something Mother Nature largely ignored), April usually o¢ ers more signs that the season has

really arrived. Temperatures begin to rise, rain rinses away winter’s residue and in a matter of days (we hope), tree buds sprout and green will wash around us.

It’s also the natural time of year when people renew their commitment to living Green.

When it comes to buying a home, newly built product today is miles ahead of that built 25, 20 and even 10 years ago.

Most home builders today go to great lengths to make their homes as Green as possible, because that’s what sells, what makes sense, and what you – the consumer – wants.

Still, there are varying degrees of “Green-ness,” and builders o¢ er di¢ erent features and technologies to meet today’s increasingly stringent standards for energy e ̈ ciency and “clean” housing.

Ask each builder you’re serious about buying from: How Green is this home?

How Green is your home?New homes today are far more energy effi cient and cleaner, offering you opportunities to save and live heathier

New-home buyers are often driven by di¢ erent inª uences, but there’s no doubt lifestyle is an increasingly important factor. Whether you’re

considering a home near the beach, a golf course or a city penthouse or pied-à-terre, you’re likely looking to compensate for what you don’t have in your current residence.

¬ e amount of living space is usually the issue – either too much or too little. Most young families are looking for more living space, which is why builders are designing homes with interiors that maximize every square foot of living space to make the most of your money.

As we get older, the quest for living space may take a di¢ erent direction. Downsizing is often the answer, although many homeowners with existing homes in suburban or rural areas are acquiring townhomes or pied-à-terres in the city. An urban location gives owners and their friends a chance to enjoy the social and cultural activities of the city without having to drive for hours to get home.

In today’s hectic world, your new home will be your retreat, so it’s important to � nd a home that suits your needs and lifestyle. In this issue, we pro� le new communities which o¢ er the perfect place to put up your feet, plus the latest industry news and features about buying and owning a new home. Enjoy!

What rules your new-home choice?Lifestyle increasingly infl uential for homebuyers

Empire Communities

CELEBRATES PARTNERSHIP WITH MIKE HOLMES AND HOLMES APPROVED HOMES PROGRAM

Empire Communities recently celebrated its partnership with Mike Holmes and his Holmes Approved Homes Program for all of its lowrise communities in Ontario.

Empire was approached by the Holmes team to join the exclusive program and collaborated with them to reinforce Empire’s high-level of home building standards across their communities. Every home registered in the program will undergo a series of inspections during critical stages of construction to receive Holmes Approved Homes certification upon completion.

The event at the Wyndfield master-planned community in Brantford saw hundreds of homeowners attend, in addition to Phil McColeman, MP Brant; Dave Levac, MPP Brant; and Mayor of Brantford Chris Friel. Levac highlighted Empire’s contribution to Brantford with its community of Wyndfield, and commented on the significance the program will have on the Brantford community. He thanked Empire and Mike Holmes for their support and commitment to building quality homes.

“Empire is the biggest builder we’ve partnered with, hands down,” says Mike Holmes. “I’m excited about this partnership because it helps me to reach more homebuyers. Everyone

deserves to have a home built right. Thanks to this partnership with Empire, now they can. This is going to be huge!”

“We are honoured that the Holmes team personally selected us for the Holmes Approved Homes Program, and are thrilled to say inspections have already begun at our sites in Southwestern Ontario,” says Paul A. Golini Jr., co-founder and executive vice-president, industry relations, Empire.

Those in attendance had the chance to meet and get their picture taken with Holmes, while also having the opportunity to tour the four model homes and learn about the inspections that will take place as part of the Holmes Approved Homes Program.

The Holmes Approved Homes Program augments Partner Builders’ quality assurance programs and transfers that value to their clients for added reassurance and their peace of mind.

Through the partnership, every Empire home that is part of the program will be inspected both during and after construction, including building envelope reviews, thermographic scans and a complete review of final finishes.

Once all inspections are complete, Empire homeowners will receive a Holmes Approved Homes Summary Report as a transparent record of their home’s construction and to help build future value.

“By providing our homeowners with transparent proof that their home has been built to be safer, stronger and more durable thanks to superior construction practices and a strict adherence to proper code, they can have peace of mind knowing their future home has been built to last and is a smart investment,” says Golini.

Empire lowrise communities currently registered in the Holmes Approved Homes Program include Imagine, Wyndfield, Summerlea, Victory, Lush at Victory, Glow, Lakeside, Eaton Square and Wyndance.

In its 20-year history, Empire has achieved more than 90 awards for outstanding service, achievement and design. The company is one of the most awarded Green Builders in Ontario having for a number of years been recognized by the HHHBA, WRHBA, BILD and EnerQuality as Green Builder of the Year. In 2014 EnerQuality recognized Empire for achieving 1,000 Energy Star qualified homes in its Wyndfield Community, making it the largest Energy Star builder in Southwestern Ontario.

Construction begins early at

LINK

F ollowing the incredibly successful February Grand Opening of LINK2 Condos + Lofts, Adi Development

Group is set to begin construction on the project’s first phase, ahead of schedule. With more than 65 per cent units sold, there is no doubt that Burlington’s most anticipated new residential community is filling a demand gap in the market.

“The response to this project has been outstanding. We’re far ahead of schedule with over 65 per cent of the second phase sold out and construction starting this summer. Purchasers have been flocking to this project, a testament to demand for high-design urban residences in Burlington,” says Tariq Adi, CEO of Adi Development Group.

“With construction starting soon, right now is your last chance to secure pre-construction pricing. These units will not last,” says Adi.

From first-time buyers to couples moving into retirement, purchasers have been flocking to the project, drawn to the coveted location and affordable price-point. Ranked best mid-sized city to live in all of Canada by

MoneySense magazine, there is no doubt that Burlington is one of the most desired addresses in the GTA. Its sought-after postal code has often meant unattainable prices, until now.

“The demand for real estate in this city is on fire. It’s a terrific investment, but it can be difficult to enter the market with detached homes in the area costing upwards of a million,” says Saud Adi, COO of Adi Development Group. “The LINK continues to attract savvy purchasers who are looking to capitalize on such an incredible neighbourhood, and enjoy unbeatable convenience at an amazing price point.”

Located on the edge of Bronte Provincial Park, Adi Development Group has created a residential community that promotes healthy living and connection to the outdoors. And they’ve done it their way. The striking collection of lofts, condominiums and garden villas reveal a clean, contemporary aesthetic

while LINK’s luxurious two-story amenity building will leave no resident wanting: the perfect spot for socializing, working up a sweat or winding down.

Living directly on Bronte’s Twelve Mile trail, the active outdoor lifestyle abounds, with lush hiking trails and Lake Ontario’s waterfront at your doorstep. LINK’s fully outfitted fitness studio and Scandinavian-inspired spa retreat encourages an active lifestyle year-round.

Steps away from the new Bus Rapid Transit service and nearby to all of the shopping, restaurants, schools and culture that Burlington is recognized for, LINK2 is situated just off of the 407 and minutes from the 403. All day GO train service makes getting into the heart of Toronto relaxing and convenient.

Exclusive “weekend incentives” are available for a limited time only, including $5,000 in upgrades and only 10 per cent down in the first year.

Located at the corner of Dundas and Sutton in Burlington, LINK2 Condos + Lofts feature one to two-bedroom condo suites from 437 to 882 sq. ft. priced from $214,990; one-bedroom plus den to four-bedroom plus den lofts from 915 to 1,443 sq. ft.; and one-bedroom to four-bedroom plus den garden villas from 817 to 1,644 sq. ft.

Flooring options for your new home

Flooring often sets the tone and feel for a room, so choosing the right options for your new home or condo may seem like a daunting decision. The process combines your personal tastes with careful thinking about practicality. After all, it is a surface you, your family and friends will walk, stand and sit on – and your kids will spill, play and grow up on.

Since each room in your home serves a different function, your floor covering should complement each room’s function and style. How many people will regularly use the room, and how much traffic will the floor receive? Children and pets definitely make a difference. Will the floor be regularly exposed to moisture? How often is the floor likely to need cleaning? How long do you hope and expect it to last?

COMMON LIVING AREASFlooring really comes down to personal choice. Some people like wood in their living areas, some tile, others carpet, perhaps all three.

Wood flooring has a natural beauty and elegance, but it’s a rigid surface so not always easy on your feet and back. However, it’s stain-resistant, easy-to-clean and offers long-term versatility. You have a number of options, from boards with “character marks” to those that are almost completely uniform. Oak is the most popular, while maple, birch and pine are also widely used. These woods all come in different quality grades, costs and appearances.

Tile offers a nearly unlimited variety of patterns and styles, from the simple to the exotic. Because of its dense composition of clay, minerals and water, most tiles are resistant to moisture, odour, fire, stains and

scratches, which makes this material ideal for kitchens, bathrooms and transition flooring from outdoor to indoor space. On the other hand, tiles can feel cold and hard, so they may not be best if you’re looking for something cosy.

In terms of sheer warmth and intimacy, carpet is probably your best choice. It’s great for bedrooms and anywhere you may like to spend a lot of time barefoot. Carpet also provides a certain amount of sound-proofing and insulation, and is a child-safe surface compared to others. It’s also inexpensive to install and comes in a variety of colours and textures. A key consideration is that the quality and thickness of the underpad is just as in important as the carpet itself.

KITCHENSWhen selecting kitchen flooring, durability and ease of cleaning should be your top criteria. Good choices are ceramic tile and linoleum – both very common – and wood. Linoleum is inexpensive and provides an easy-to-clean surface and comes in countless designs. Ceramic tiles offer superior durability, resisting most dents, dings and scratches, but can also be slippery when wet, so you may want to consider ones with a textured surface.

Then there is wood. While some feel it’s an unusual choice given that there are so many other flooring options, hardwood is also an excellent choice for the kitchen. Everyone ends up spending a lot of time there, and wood floors can add a “homey” feeling, as well as offer great decorating options when contrasted with wood or other cabinet door surfaces. At the same time, wood also copes well with the high traffic volume kitchens tend to attract. If you opt for hardwood in your kitchen, make sure you apply a good protective finish, such as polyurethane, or use prefinished wood to guard against the many kinds of moisture that inevitably make their way onto the kitchen floor.

BATHROOMSWhile bathrooms tend to be among the smaller rooms in your house, with the proper flooring they can still make a strong visual impact. Linoleum, ceramic tile, limestone, marble and granite are all popular and functional choices. Ceramic tiles look great and provide superb durability. Should you elect to go with an even more striking and higher-end material such as marble, you’re going to need to employ a competent team of skilled craftspeople. Whatever your choice – keep in mind that like kitchens, bathrooms see a lot of moisture.

New home builders recognized for excellence in customer service

Tarion Warranty Corp. has announced the finalists for the 2015 Tarion Awards of Excellence, the only awards in Ontario that recognize new home builders based solely on their customer service delivery.

“New home builders are building beautiful homes and communities across Ontario, but their jobs don’t stop there. A great home builder ensures their customers feel supported long after they’ve settled into their new home,” says Tarion president and CEO Howard Bogach. “The 2015 Tarion Awards of Excellence finalists demonstrate that excellent customer service is an essential part of a home builder’s job and can make the difference between a good home builder and a great one.”

According to Chris Spiteri, chairman of Tarion’s Board of Directors, “Tarion sets the standards for new home builders in Ontario when it comes to licensing and after sales service delivery for warranty obligations. The Tarion Awards of Excellence f inalists represent builders who go above and beyond these requirements. Their commitment to excellent customer service helps validate the high caliber of service that the Ontario home building industry has to offer.”

Finalists were determined based on the results of a comprehensive survey sent to more than 49,000 Ontario homeowners who took possession of a new home between Oct. 1, 2013 and Sept. 30, 2014. Almost 7,900 survey responses were received, representing 16 per cent of consumers who bought a new home in Ontario during that time. The results were tabulated by Crunch Research in partnership with Harris Decima.

Survey questions focused on homeowners’ satisfaction with their builder, covering every stage in the homeowner-builder relationship from the signing of the Agreement of Purchase and Sale, through construction and the pre-delivery period, to after-sales service.

To qualify for the Awards, builders must have at least five new home possessions during the survey time frame and a specified number of completed questionnaires must have been received.

Award recipients will be announced at a luncheon in Toronto on Monday, April 20, 2015.

The following new home builders compete in four award categories: small, medium, large volume and highrise. HIGHRISE CATEGORY (100+ highrise possessions per year)Concert – Toronto The Daniels Corporation – Toronto Del Ridge Homes – Markham Mattamy Homes – Oakville The Tricar Group – LondonTridel – Toronto LARGE VOLUME CATEGORY (100+ possessions per year)Devonleigh Homes Inc. – OrangevilleFusion Homes – GuelphMonarch Corporation – TorontoTribute Communities – PickeringUrbandale Construction Ltd. – Ottawa MEDIUM VOLUME CATEGORY (21-100 possessions per year)Hayhoe Homes – St. ThomasKlemencic Homes – TrentonMcDonald Homes – BrightonMelanie Construction Inc. – RussellSACA Homes – Casselman SMALL VOLUME CATEGORY (5-20 possessions per year)J. Donato Construction Ltd. – Wasaga BeachLockwood Brothers Construction – OxfordRick Stewart Construction Ltd. – Fort ErieRochon Construction – North BayTerry Waito Homes Inc. – Petawawa

Tarion is a private corporation established in 1976 to protect

the rights of new home buyers and regulate new home builders. In this role, Tarion administers the Ontario New Home Warranties Plan Act, which outlines the warranty protection that new home purchasers are entitled to in Ontario. The Corporation also establishes minimum time standards for after-sales service, and adjudicates issues between homeowners and builders.

5 tips to make moving cleaner and Greener

Protecting the environment is an important concern for consumers and businesses alike, but many don’t realize that moving can have a positive impact on the environment.

Waste caused by the moving process not only stems from packing supplies, but also from the waste accumulated over many years within a home or o� ce. Both sources can be extremely taxing on the environment if not properly managed.

So, here are some suggestions on how to make your move a cleaner, greener process.

1. PLAN AHEAD: Waiting until the last minute to prepare for a move often makes environmental concerns an afterthought. Start early so you have the extra time to sort through recyclable items in the garage, kitchen and basement for delivery to recycling depots prior to moving day. Typically your garage, basement and attic contain the highest concentration of recyclable waste so start the sorting process there rst. Consider holding a garage sale or donating gently used tools or small appliances to a charity rather than have them end up in a land ll site.

2. RESEARCH: Survey local recycling options to nd the most convenient solution for recyclables. Many cities o� er curb-side pick-up or “sort and drop” depots. Visit earth911.com for a list of local organizations that can dispose of all types of recyclable materials.

3. ORGANIZE: Prepare recyclables by organizing into categories: plastic, glass, aluminum, paper and cardboard. Look up the requirements of the local recycler to see if there are any additional steps needed to prepare recyclables beforehand.

4. CARE FOR HAZARDOUS MATERIAL: As you clean out your garage and basement in preparation to move, be conscientious about the kinds of materials being packed to move with you and which items are to be disposed. Toxic items, such as paint, batteries, house cleaning products, automobile oils, pesticides and fertilizers are dangerous and cannot be transported in the back of a commercial moving truck. Also consider these items cannot be thrown-out with your regular garbage. Look up the specialized recycling depots for toxic products in your city.

5. REUSE: Do not throw away used boxes when the move is complete. A well-made corrugated box is great for storage or may be reused for a future move. Contact local schools or charity organizations, such as women’s shelters, scout troops, and food banks to ask if they need boxes to redistribute donated items. Donating gently used boxes not only reduces waste, but can be a big help in support of a good cause.

Strong economy and housing marketBURLINGTON

//CITY FOCUS

» by WAYNE KARL

Ten years or so ago, if you were asked to describe Burlington, you might have thought of it as just west of Oakville, lots of land space, a bit of a bedroom community between Toronto and Hamilton, with some big

box retail outlets.Burlington still shows those characteristics, but is increasingly earning a

reputation as a city on the rise, with a progressive local government and economic development office helping to build a self-sufficient economy. Burlington shines in business as well as culture, recreation and leisure.

And like Oakville, Burlington’s proximity to Hamilton, the GTA and the U.S. is central to its prosperity.

The city has a clear vision of its future. Core economic strengths focus on advanced manufacturing, software development, financial services, biotechnology, environmental and logistics enterprises. Increasing diversity is one of the keys to future growth, as this would build resilience and sustainability to expand further beyond its traditional industrial markets.

For example, the city is expanding its partnerships with nearby post-secondary institutions, including McMaster University and Mohawk College, in emerging fields of technology, research and skills training.

In addition, Mayor Rick Goldring says the Burlington Economic

Development Corp. is one of the city’s top priorities. City Council has endorsed aggressive growth targets and has formally asked BEDC to take a more direct and active role in the short- and long-term development and marketing of Burlington.

Already well positioned with extensive access to regional, national and international transportation networks, the city is also the beneficiary of recent investments in infrastructure to improve highways and mass transit, to facilitate business growth and community development.

The city has enjoyed substantial growth recently. By 2006, the population topped 160,000 and continues to grow; development is spreading north, with farmland north of Dundas St. (formerly Hwy. 5) increasingly giving way to suburban housing.


BURLINGTON AT A GLANCEPOPULATION 175,000MAJOR EMPLOYERS Sales and service, business finance administration, management, trades and transport sectors AVERAGE HOME PRICES

March 2015: $445,000 March 2014: $415,000SOURCE: Canadian Real Estate Association, other sources

BEDC has a very clear and ambitious plan for the city. With a mission statement “To promote a healthy environment and prosperous community by facilitating opportunities for economic growth,” BEDC is positioning Burlington as a globally competitive community.

Currently in Burlington, a disparity exists between local jobs and the skill-set of residents, says BEDC. Residents have to commute outside the city to find work, particularly in professional services. As a result, approximately 55 per cent of Burlington residents commute to jobs in Oakville, Mississauga and Toronto. In the manufacturing industry, the opposite occurs, as Burlington imports labour from outside the city.

BEDC’s strategy is to create the right job opportunities for residents to live and work in the same community, improving their quality of life.

Burlington City Council recently approved a BEDC employment land strategy, with five districts that have the potential to increase the city’s non-residential tax levy revenues by two per cent per year. This should generate more than $600,000 or about 87,000 square metres of non-residential construction, annually.

All of this is important news for prospective new-home buyers looking to buy in and around Burlington. These plans mean more local job opportunities, which leads to employment and average wage growth – key determining factors to support new housing and increasing real estate values.

Developers catering to this demand include: Branthaven Homes, with two-storey boutique condos at Jazz; Molinaro Group, with Paradign condos in midtown Burlington; and Adi Development Group is building LINK and LINK2 Condos + Lofts in the city.

Residents can enjoy a variety of cultural and local attractions in Burlington, from the famous Royal Botanical Gardens to the Burlington Art Centre, home to the world’s largest collection of contemporary Canadian ceramics.

Parkland is abundant in Burlington, with 75 parks occupying 800 acres

within the city Key among them is the Spencer Smith Park, a highlight in downtown old Burlington which has undergone significant redevelopment over the years to become one of the city’s central recreational centres along the waterfront.

For those looking for amateur sports and recreation in their community, Burlington has a vast array of excellent programs and youth leagues, as well as the Burlington Cougars junior hockey team.

O wow!

BRANTHAVEN SEES STRONG SALES AT OAKVILLAGE TOWNHOME COMMUNITY

Oakville continues to strengthen its position in the real estate market as being one of the hottest areas to live west of the GTA, and Branthaven’s new community of townhomes at Trafalgar Rd. and Dundas St. East is no exception.

In two private sales events in February and March, exclusive to VIP registrants, Branthaven has sold more than 160 townhomes in advance of a public release. And there’s more to be released this month.

Comprising freehold and condominium townhomes, the new community, aptly named Oakvillage, is a tribute to the longstanding values of Oakville’s architectural legacy. Branthaven’s beautifully-appointed homes provide a true sense of belonging; from the streetscapes to personal living space, including how well the homes are configured for daily living, they not only fit with today’s busy lifestyle but also improve quality of life.

“Oakvillage has an amazing community vision,” says Steve Stipsits, president of Branthaven Homes. “It’s the perfect blend of attainability, quality and accessibility for anyone looking to live their life in Oakville.”

These contemporary townhomes are surrounded by scenic woodlands and 300 km of multi-purpose trails, with many trails woven within the community itself. Right at your doorstep are endless urban amenities, including a wealth of fine shopping, restaurants and anything else you could imagine. Hwys. 403, 407 and QEW are just moments away, connecting you quickly and easily to all parts of the GTA.

Branthaven’s proprietary Fresh Thinking features distinguish the townhomes at Oakvillage from ordinary townhomes. Kitchens are loaded with smart extras including

pantries, enhanced storage, under-cabinet iPad mounts and customizable peg organizer drawers. Bathrooms have been treated with spa-style trimmings – deep soaker tubs with square edges, floating vanities, sleek shower shelves and cultured marble counters.

Simply put, “These are better life spaces,” add Stipsits. “They are very bright, open and have a transitional feel.”

Well-lit spaces with great circulation and lots of storage provide must-have features in all the right places. Interiors are more design-conscious and relaxed – to allow you to seamlessly express the way you want to live.

“We’ve collaborated with industry-leading designers and premium suppliers,” says Kristen Bellamy, marketing and brand manager of Branthaven Homes. “We’ve sourced the latest and greatest products and made them our own, and from counters to cabinets, and tiles to taps, we’ve made it easier to express and improve your lifestyle in the process.”

From its inception more than 40 years ago, Branthaven Homes has grown to become an award-winning visionary of stunning master-planned communities. Branthaven has re-thought every facet of townhome design for their newest master-planned community.

Prices at Branthaven’s Oakvillage are from the $400’s. The sales office is located at 351 Dundas St. E. in Oakville. To register for exclusive offers and an invitation to the second VIP Opening on April 11, visit branthaven.com/oakvillage or call 905.333.8364 for more information.

HOMEBUYERS’ HELP//


Calculate your mortgage payments

01 Determine the appropriate 5-Year Fixed Mortgage Rate, which is easiest to qualify for.

02 Run your finger down the left column of the table below to find the rate (round to the nearest 1/4%).

03 Choose your desired amortization period across the top of the table (25 years has lowest payment and is easiest to qualify for first-time buyers).

04At the intersection of the column and row is your mortgage payment per month per $100,000 borrowed.

Higher Development Charges loom in Ontario

Get ready, new-home buyers. No, not just in your general preparedness for buying a home, but for an increasingly di cult – not to mention controversial – issue that’s costing you more money.

And you may not even know it.Development Charges. If you’re not familiar with this

term, you likely will be soon, as it’s a contentious issue facing home builders – and therefore buyers – across the country.

Just what are Development Charges? In short, they are the fees applied by various levels of government when new homes are built, to pay for new infrastructure such as roads, transit and other necessities.

� at part you may know. But what you likely aren’t aware of is that these fees are rising exponentially, have been for years, and they’re occupying an increasingly high portion of new-home costs. And they’re passed right on to you, the homebuyer.

HOW MUCH ARE WE TALKING ABOUT? In Toronto, for example, City Council recently voted to increase Development Charges by 75 per cent, to almost $30,000 for a semi or single-detached home. � ese new fees are being phased in, and will be fully implemented by Feb. 1, 2016.

It’s even worse further out in the GTA, where municipal fees and charges collected by Markham, Oakville, Brampton, Bradford-West Gwillimbury and Ajax average out to about $116,200 on a new single-detached home, representing 22 per cent of the cost. For a new highrise, the fees average $64,000 – or 20 per cent.

But this is not just a GTA or Toronto problem.In Ottawa, Development Charges and other government-

imposed fees account for about 23 per cent of the cost of a new home – or about $100,000 of a single-family home. Twenty-� ve years ago, the costs accounted for just three per cent.

Now, with recent proposed changes from the Ministry of Municipal A� airs and Housing, new-home buyers could once again be dinged with higher DCs.

� e provincial government is proposing reforms to the Planning Act and the Development Charges Act designed to

“give residents a greater say in how their communities grow and would provide more opportunities to fund community services like transit and recycling.”

Others, however, including Ontario Home Builders’ Association (OHBA) and the Building Industry and Land Development Association, fear these changes will just add more taxes – a disproportionate amount – to new-home buyers.

“Municipalities are going to pile on a new transit tax on new home buyers and businesses,” says OHBA CEO Joe Vaccaro. “� ose new neighbours ultimately pay every new tax generated by government in the price of their new home.”

� ough the problem may di� er slightly from one city and even province to the next, the concern is universal: new-home buyers are picking up a disproportionate part of the tab for infrastructure development.

As a prospective new-home buyer, you may not appreciate the importance of the Development Charges issue just yet. But if you’re a few or even several months away from making a purchase, or family members slightly further, you may learn the hard way what many are already concerned about: if such fees are allowed to rise unchecked, new-home a� ordability will eventually be severely threatened.

And that will be a price that, ultimately, no one can a� ord to pay.
