In Airdrie, Genesis has also commenced the construction of four additional show homes to promote the 255 serviced lots at Bayside 7 and 9. Genesis intends to market approximately 150 of these lots to third party builders in 2011, while maintaining a strong inventory for its building division.

Genesis building division has 73 new home sales under contract in the communities of Saddlestone, Sage Meadows and Sherwood.

The Company plans to focus on improved profitability through efficient operations and the reduction and restructuring of its debt.
