Located in South Surrey - British Columbia, Wills Creek is a fully-integrated residential community featuring three- and four-bedroom town homes, near the Morgan Creek golf course. The launch will be held on July 26, 2008, at the Downtown Living Sales Centre and will be open to all nationalities.

Mr Robert Booth, Managing Director, Emaar Canada, said:

'Environment-friendly, elegant and in one of the most prestigious locations in British Colombia, Wills Creek town houses have gained strong investor response already during its launch in Canada. With the sale in Dubai, Emaar is offering a special opportunity for residents in the city to own a home in Canada.'



Mr Booth added: 'Canada is a preferred destination for UAE nationals and expatriates for vacations as well as for exploring career and educational prospects. The location of Wills Creek in South Surrey assures good returns in investment, making the homes an ideal buy for investors and home-users.'

Set in 17 acres, Wills Creek town homes have classical architectural features, and are ideal for families or as vacation homes for international buyers. The open, informal floor plans (from 2,400 to 4,400 sq ft) provide seamless transitions between the active living areas, and creating a light airy feel throughout.

The interiors feature extensive use of natural materials. Vaulted living spaces, gourmet kitchens with granite counter-top and large entertainment islands and spa-like bathrooms with floor to ceiling handset glass tile - all highlight a luxurious, first-class lifestyle.

Community amenities include the Creek Club, a free-standing river rock-clad building, which houses a state-of-the-art fitness centre, multi-purpose lounge and spacious locker rooms. Outside the Club is an outdoor, heated lap pool and hot tub in a naturally landscaped setting that includes a waterfall.

The Wills Creek complex harnesses the earth's energy for heating through geothermal technology, allowing homeowners to reduce their carbon footprint. The initial cost of a geothermal system is greater than a conventional natural gas furnace, but owners reap substantial savings over time, anywhere between 30 to 60% in reduced bills.

Wills Creek is only 45 minutes from downtown Vancouver and just 15 minutes to the international border between Canada and the US. It builds on South Surrey's reputation as one of the area's top tourist destinations. South Surrey features over 16 PGA caliber golf courses, 19 parks and attractions such as the Surrey Art Gallery apart from several recreational facilities.

Emaar's expansion to Canada is in line with its Vision 2010 to become one of the most valuable companies in the world through geographic expansion and business segmentation.
