The Property was purchased for $6,525,000.00 and is being refinanced with a new mortgage in the principal amount of $5,170,000.00 with an institutional lender at industry standard rates and terms. The Property has draft plan of subdivision approval for approximately 220 single family homes that back onto a 440 acre conservation area, yet is just a 10-minute walk from downtown. The ReECO Tech^TM vision is to develop an environmentally responsible community utilizing various efficient technologies offered under the Sparta Group of Companies’ umbrella.

“Decisions made during the development of communities from materials and HVAC to forms of energy and structure orientation can all help improve energy efficiency while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. We hope this division of our company will give us the opportunity to demonstrate how engineering in small changes up front can result in big future benefits. The fact that we are planning to transform a decomissioned WWII military property into a smart community nestled against the picturesque MaCaulay Mountain with easy access to 40 wineries and just a short drive from the Sandbanks is very exciting,” said John O’Bireck, President of Sparta Capital Ltd.

ReECO Tech™ is a newly formed property development division created to utilize earnings and to implement the technologies from other Sparta divisions into environmentally responsible community developments. The vision is to use best landscaping practices, fully integrated smart home technologies, and other sustainable design applications with the intention of safeguarding homeowners from rising energy costs.

Net zero homes are a way for people concerned about their carbon footprint to take the next step to saving energy. The Canadian Home Builders’ Association describes these homes as up to 80 percent more energy efficient than traditional homes. Interest in this type of building is growing not only because net zero home construction is able to protect the homeowner from future energy price increases but also because it can improve air quality – an appealing prospect for allergy and asthma sufferers. Market research firm, Lux Research estimates that zero energy buildings and near-zero energy buildings will grow to be a 1.3 trillion-dollar market globally by 2025.
