Affordable and Accessible Home Ownership
Buying a first home is a dream for many people, and condos can make that dream more attainable.

Stress-Free, Low-Maintenance Living
One of the best things about living in a condo is the convenience.

Additionally, many modern condo developments offer top-tier amenities such as fitness centres, rooftop terraces, and inviting social lounges that provide the ultimate blend of comfort and convenience, all within your own building!
A Strong Investment with Rental Potential
With Trent University and Fleming College attracting both students and professionals, there is a consistent demand for rental properties in Peterborough. While Peterborough’s real estate market is on the rise, condos are still relatively affordable. This means that if you are looking to generate rental income, a condo could be a smart financial move.
A Safe and Supportive Community
Condos offer more than just a place to live – they create a sense of community. With shared spaces and organized events, it’s easy to meet neighbours and build connections in a condo building.

Peterborough’s Snowy Winter: Essential Home Safety and Comfort Tips
Winter in Peterborough this year has been extra snowy, and while the snow-covered streets and frosty trees are undeniably beautiful, heavy snowfalls can bring challenges with them. Here are some of Team vanRahan’s top tips for keeping your home not only safe, but comfortable and warm all winter long.
Keep your Walkways and Driveway Clear
Frequent snowfalls do mean more shovelling, but it’s important to keep your pathways clear so that vehicles and people can stay safe. Here’s how to make it easier:
- Shovel regularly to prevent ice and snow buildup
- Use salt or sand to improve traction and help reduce ice
- Consider investing in a snowblower if you have a large driveway, or just to speed things up!
- Remember to clear pathways to sheds and garages where necessary
- Remove snow from any Garbage cans and Green bins stored outside for easy access
Prevent Ice Dams and Watch for Large Icicles
Ice dams form when heat escapes from your roof, melting snow that refreezes at the edges, leading to potential leaks and damage. Additionally, a lack of attic insulation can lead to large icicles hanging from your eaves. To prevent these issues:
- Keep your attic well-insulated to reduce heat loss. This investment is well worth it as it can also save you major money on utility bills.
- Seal air leaks around vents, chimneys, and light fixtures to prevent warm air from escaping.
- Use a roof rake to clear heavy snow buildup
- Ensure gutters and downspouts are clear before snowfall so melting snow can drain properly
Keep Snow Away from Vents, Gas Meters, and Furnace Exhausts
Blocked vents and exhausts can create serious safety hazards, including carbon monoxide buildup inside your home. After heavy snowfall:
- Regularly check and clear snow from your furnace and dryer vents.
- Keep gas metres visible and free from snow to prevent damage and ensure proper readings.
- If you have an outdoor heat pump, make sure it hasn’t been buried by the snow
This is a simple, but critical part of keeping your home safe in the winter.
Protect your Pipes from Freezing
Extreme cold can cause pipes to freeze and burst, leading to costly repairs. While heavy snowfall doesn’t always equate to extreme cold, winter in Peterborough has been relentless with both snow and cold in 2025. Protect your pipes by:
- Keeping your home at a consistent temperature
- Letting faucets drip slightly during cold spells to keep water flowing
- Insulating exposed pipes in any unheated areas like basements and garages.
Check on your neighbours
Winter can be especially tough for those with mobility challenges, and for some seniors. If you have a neighbour who might need assistance, offer to help with their snow removal.
Make your Home Cozy and Enjoy the Season
Winter doesn’t have to be all about shovelling and preparing for the next storm! Instead of letting the weather get you down, embrace the season.
- Set up a cozy reading nook by the fireplace or window with a snowy view
- Cook warm or comforting foods like soups and stews, or get baking!
- Light candles or incense, and use soft lighting to create a warm ambiance.
Your home can feel its coziest during these darker colder months, so try not to let the winter get you down.
Peterborough’s snowy winters are beautiful and enjoyable as long as you’re prepared. By taking these precautions, you can stay safe, protect your home, and make the most of the season. Stay warm out there, and enjoy winter in our wonderful city!
