Home building seems to be booming in Tri-Cities. But is it just a mirage?
Tri-City schools recess for the summer next week, kicking off the busy season for home buying. For those with house hunting on their to-do list, there is good news and trouble is brewing as builders cut back amid concerns about the Tri-Cities and U.S. economy. The good news: There were 944 homes listed for sale in May, the largest selection since November 2014, when there were about 1,000, according to Tri-City Association of Realtors archives. he average home price remains high, averaging $472,000, about $3,000 more than a year ago. But the double-digit price increases of the pandemic years have eased. The number of sales is holding steady, 321 in May compared to 330 a year ago and 284 the year before that. 'I think we're going to be petty stable for a little while,' said Andrew Magallanez, chief association executive for the local Realtors association. The note of caution, however, is Tri-Citians readily see excavators turning vacant land into future subdivisions around the community. But looks are deceiving. Home builders are starting fewer homes, said Jeff Losey, president of the Home Builders Association of Tri-Cities. 'When you drive around and you look, it's blowing up,' he said. However, fears about interest rates, tariff-fueled increases in lumber prices and concerns about federal funding for the Hanford cleanup are prompting home builders not to expose themselves to a potential downturn. Losey reports local home builders pulled 22% fewer permits for single-family homes in April compared to a year ago. It's not just local. Nationally, new home construction fell 12%, according to the National Association of Home Builders, which echoed concerns about new tariffs on building materials such as Canadian lumber. The national association anticipates tariffs will increase the average cost to build a home by more than $9,200, depending on which tariffs and retaliatory tariffs are enacted. Losey said the downturn is spread across the Tri-Cities, with permit numbers tumbling in Kennewick, Pasco, West Richland, Benton and Franklin counties. Richland was the exception, its numbers buoyed by home building at Badger Mountain South. Builders received permits for 109 homes in the first months of the year compared to 78 over the same period in 2024. 'That's a pretty big jump,' Losey said. Development is slowing, but not stopped. Even now, veteran builders are committing to long-planned projects. The Urban Trails along Bob Olson Parkway, near Desert Hills Middle School in Kennewick, is the most recent to break ground. Excavators began carving the 152-acre site into a future neighborhood this spring after securing grading permits from the city. At full development, Urban Trails will add about 1,200 new residences, split between homes, townhomes and up to 750 apartments. It is the brainchild of Mitchell Creer LLC, led buy Britt Creer, president of the Urban Range Group/Ranchland Homes, a busy Tri-Cities land developer and home builder. It has been in the works since at least 2023, when it was conceived as a 1,900-door project. Creer said door-count was curbed, but it still will include a mix of residence types catering to people at every phase of their lives — apartments for young adults, detached homes for growing families, townhomes for downsizing retirees. 'The idea is you never have to leave,' he said. Magallanez, of the Realtors association, said Urban Trails is a welcome twist on the standard subdivision packed with single-family homes. 'As we grow, we either grow up or we'll start to see more mixed use,' he said. 'We need housing at different generational levels.' Rotschy Inc. is the contractor for the grading work at Urban Trails, which involves moving about 700,000 cubic yards of material to create the future neighborhood. Creer said the infrastructure design will be finalized when the grading is done. He intends to apply for permits for the civil infrastructure — roads, utilities, stormwater systems and so forth — later this month. The first 40 lots will be available later this year and apartment designs will be finalized in 2026. Jared Retter of Retter & Co. | Sotheby's International Realty confirmed it expects to represent The Urban Trails to buyers after working with Creer and his partners on other projects, including two West Richland developments — Eagle Pointe Townhomes on Belmont and Western Ridge, a single-family neighborhood that's nearby. There are nearly 11,000 future residential lots in various phases of planning, according to projects tracked by the Tri-City Herald. There's no guarantee any individual proposal will become reality. But collectively, the dozens of planned subdivisions and development sites offer a potent view of future construction in Benton and Franklin counties. The former Lewis and Clark Ranch in West Richland is easily the most ambitious undertaking. The 7,000-acre Frank Tiegs LLC property is already inside the city. The first 800-acre phase would add 3,000 to 4,000 new homes and apartments, according to city planners, who have been working on the proposed development for years.

Attention Costco shoppers: 5 money saving tips and tricks that everyone should know, according to experts
Costco is widely recognized as a go-to for bulk shoppers looking to stock up on food and groceries, home essentials and more. More than 10 million Canadians have Costco memberships that give them access to its gas station, a members-only pharmacy, Costco Travel, Costco Services, home improvement and more. But are shoppers making the most of their memberships to get best deals possible? Nichole Schaubroeck and Tina Chow are two Canadian content creators who have each earned hundreds of thousands of followers by sharing the ins and outs of saving money while you shop. 'It's very hard to find a good deal, so anyway we can save, maybe it's not as extreme as it used to be, it's still good," said Schaubroeck who runs the account Coupon Cutie, in an interview with Yahoo Canada. Keep reading to learn Chow and Schaubroeck's best tips and trips on how to navigate Costco like a pro. According to Schaubroeck, Costco's price tags are a good predictor of whether or not an item will go on sale. Items that end in .97 are likely at their lowest price, making it prime time to stock up on what you need. Another hidden hack is to look for what Costco shoppers call the 'death star,' an asterisk located in the upper right-hand corner of an item's tag. 'All this is telling you is that this item is either no longer going to be at Costco or it won't be back until next year,' said Schaubroeck. Chow, who created the account Costco Lovers Canada, said that although the foot traffic in the store is constantly changing, sales seem to follow a schedule. 'I know that most sales end on a Sunday... new sales will begin the following week,' said Chow. There's also what people refer to online as "Markdown Mondays" — when new items go on sale. While this is not a Costco-official event, it still creates a buzz for shoppers to find cost-friendly deals. 'They [Costco] are always doing markdowns," she added. Additionally, Chow noted that Costco is known for 'following the trends of what's happening in the market,' which can help attract shoppers who are looking for products for a certain occasion. For example, it's not uncommon for Costco to have a sale on hamburger buns, ketchup, mustard and relish ahead of a long weekend. Chow also recommends shopping as the weather changes to take advantage of out-of-season products at lower prices. According to Costco customer service, shoppers are entitled to 'risk-free, 100 per cent satisfaction guarantee', meaning that the majority of purchased products can be returned and refunded at any time (excluding electronics and diamond jewelry). This allows shoppers to test out products and see if it is the right fit for them. 'If I'm going out and trying a $700 Dyson [hair dryer]... I want to be able to know that I can return it,' said Chow. 'I will always go to Costco and pay more on a product for their return policy.' Costco also honours price adjustments on merchandise if the price drops within 30 days of the original purchase and the product is still in the store's warehouse. Schaubroeck added that this flexibility is a large reason as to why Canadians turn to Costco for their shopping. 'It's always nice to have that reassurance when buying something, that no matter what happens, they will take it back for you,' she said. One perk to owning a Costco membership is that it can be used worldwide at any location, which can come in handy when going on vacation. Chow said she often uses her membership when travelling to help save on food and snacks. It's even handy for shopping and saving on souvenirs and local food. Many Costco shoppers may not know that there's an official Costco app meant to enhance shopping experiences. The Costco app allows you to shop and save using online-only prices, check warehouse inventory and local gasoline prices, refill prescriptions at Costco's pharmacy, create your own shopping list in-app and more. The app also allows shoppers to receive updates on sales promotions and product entering the store, a perk that Chow said is a 'huge secret' amongst Canadians. 'There are app-exclusive savings,' she said. 'If you follow Costco on Instagram, there are also exclusive savings available there." Schaubroeck also highlights another app called Checkout 51, a platform that displays cash-back offers on Costco merchandise. While this does not apply to all products, Schaubroeck said it's an incentive worth checking out.

Minister Lightbound visits Chantier Davie as part of the shipyard's 200th anniversary celebration
LÉVIS, QC, June 7, 2025 /CNW/ - Through the National Shipbuilding Strategy (NSS), the Government of Canada is committed to strengthening its sovereign shipbuilding capabilities in an increasingly complex global environment. Building vessels domestically creates strong supply chains that help safeguard Canadian naval capabilities and ensure that the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN), the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) and Transport Canada (TC) are equipped to conduct operations at home and alongside allies. Today, the Honourable Joël Lightbound, Minister of Government Transformation, Public Works and Procurement, visited Chantier Davie Canada Inc. (CDCI) to celebrate the shipyard's 200th anniversary. He also took the opportunity to emphasize the importance of prioritizing Canadian supply chains and highlighted the role of the NSS in supporting domestic industry and innovation. As one of the 3 strategic partner shipyards under the NSS, CDCI plays a critical role in strengthening the country's maritime capabilities. The shipyard was recently awarded a major contract to build a polar icebreaker for the CCG. In addition, design work is currently underway at CDCI for 6 program icebreakers, which are essential for maintaining year-round access to Canada's Arctic and supporting northern communities. Beyond new ship construction, CDCI is a key contributor to the third pillar of the NSS: vessel repair, refit and maintenance. The shipyard is actively engaged in vessel life extension projects, refit and conversion work and sustainment operations across a wide range of fleet assets. These efforts ensure that Canada's maritime fleet remains resilient, mission-ready and capable of operating both domestically and alongside international allies. This year marks the 15th anniversary of the NSS. Since its inception, the strategy has revitalized Canada's marine industry, fostered innovation and created a skilled workforce. NSS contracts awarded between 2012 and the end of 2024 contributed close to $38.7 billion to Canada's gross domestic product and created or maintained approximately 21,400 jobs annually from 2012 to 2025. Looking ahead, the Government of Canada remains committed to advancing shipbuilding projects that equip the RCN, the CCG and TC with modern, capable vessels. The NSS will continue to evolve by incorporating lessons learned and working closely with industry partners to deliver long-term value for Canadians. Quotes "We are committed to building a resilient and sovereign marine industry. Through the National Shipbuilding Strategy, we are not only delivering world-class vessels for the Canadian Coast Guard and Royal Canadian Navy, we are also strengthening our economy, creating good jobs, including in the Québec-Chaudière-Appalaches region, and ensuring that Canadian innovation and expertise remain at the heart of our maritime future." The Honourable Joël LightboundMinister of Government Transformation, Public Works and Procurement "With 200 years of expertise behind them, Chantier Davie's ongoing participation in the National Shipbuilding Strategy is vital to ensuring the Canadian Coast Guard has the vessels it needs to protect our waters and serve Canadians today and in the future. Canada's oceans are central to our economy, our sovereignty and the wellbeing of strong coastal and northern communities and economies." The Honourable Joanne ThompsonMinister of Fisheries "Happy 200th anniversary to Davie shipyard! Two centuries of jobs, innovation and maritime leadership have helped build Canada into the country it is today. And I know that together with Davie, through its role in the National Shipbuilding Strategy, we will build an even stronger economy and better future for people in Lévis and Canada." The Honourable Mélanie JolyMinister of Industry and Minister responsible for Canada Economic Development for Quebec Regions "We are honoured to welcome the Honourable Joël Lightbound as we celebrate Davie's 200th anniversary. His presence reaffirms the trust our partners in the Canadian government have placed in Davie and their strong support for Canadian supply chains. Since even before Canada became a nation, Davie people have been strengthening our maritime sovereignty from the banks of the St Lawrence. After two centuries of delivering icebreakers to defend our Arctic interests or maintaining Canada's national fleet, we're ready to write two more. " James DaviesPresident and Chief Executive Officer, Davie Quick facts Shipyards and companies in Quebec are playing an important role in supporting the federal government's shipbuilding needs. Contracts issued under the NSS to Quebec-based companies are worth approximately $7.7 billion, which represents approximately 15% of the total value of NSS-issued contracts. In addition to contracts issued directly by the Government of Canada, Quebec-based companies have received close to $602.6 million in contracts from NSS shipyards to support their respective efforts. These contracts continue to provide meaningful, long-term opportunities for skilled workers across the province of Quebec. CDCI has played a critical role in supporting Canada's fleets, receiving over $7.25 billion in contracts from 2012 to April 2025 for various types of work on ships for the CCG, the RCN and TC. As part of its fleet renewal plan, the CCG is acquiring 2 polar icebreakers through the NSS. To deliver these vessels by the early 2030s, construction work is being done by 2 shipyards: Seaspan's Vancouver Shipyards and CDCI. This will ensure that the CCG's operations continue in Arctic waters for longer periods, while allowing its fleet to better support Indigenous Peoples, strengthen Arctic security, advance high Arctic science and better respond to maritime emergencies. On November 13, 2024, Canada signed the Icebreaker Collaboration Effort (ICE Pact) with the United States and Finland to deepen existing cooperation, strengthen their shipbuilding industries and allow new equipment and capabilities to be produced more quickly. These 3 key Arctic countries will work more closely together to engage allies and partners to help meet future global demand for Arctic and polar vessels. CDCI is also moving forward with an infrastructure modernization project that will help the shipyard better meet NSS requirements and respond to the ICE Pact opportunity.
