Is this the year you buy your first home? There are plenty of great properties on the market, and prices are more attractive than in recent months. Interest rates are still low, but expected to rise this year.
How much do you need and how can you save for a down payment? What’s the best type of mortgage for you? What homes are available and what sorts of programs are out there to help a first-time buyer?
How will the new mortgage rules that come into effect this year affect your buying power? Do all homes have HST applied to the price?
All these questions and more will be answered at a fun, free, interactive seminar I’m putting on next month with two other professionals.
Jeremy Kimm, CFP, FMA, Financial Consultant, Investors Group Financial Services Inc.will talk about how to save for that ever-important down payment, and government programs to assist home buyers. BEFORE THE RRSP DEADLINE – Find out the details of how to borrow from your RRSP tax-free to help you buy a house, and other tricks of the trade.
Robert Boyd, Mortgage Expert with Dominion Lending will present on the various types of mortgages that are available, how to apply, and how to get the best rate possible to save you money. Learn about mortgages and rates, amortization and prepayment and take the mystery out of mortgages. Take advantage BEFORE RATES RISE and lock in a rate while you decide if it’s time to buy.
Tim Ayres (that’s me!), REALTOR® with Royal LePage Coast Capital Realty will walk you through the home-buying process – how we search for a home together, showings, offers, negotiation and finally, getting the keys to your new home. Find out what to look for, how to ensure you get what you need, and how having an experienced REALTOR® on your side can help.
When: Tuesday, February 15, 2011, 7PM.
Where: Investors Group Westshore office, 201 – 630 Goldstream [map] – [street view]
