Purchase A Home For A Family Member

 

Have you considered purchasing a home for a family member?

Genworth, a partner who insures mortgages in Canada, has a number of great videos that talk about programs that they offer, including their Family Plan Program.

You can purchase a home for a family member, like a son or daughter, mother or father with as little as 5% down.  There are some stipulations but this is an excellent program.

I know of many individuals who's children were accepted to University.  They purchased a home rather than have their children rent.  They built up some equity over the 4 year program, effectively receiving the housing costs back at the end.

Here is a quick video from Genworth that explains this program a little.

If you would like to find out more about this or other options for purchasing a second home, give me a quick call or send an email.

Time to Give Thanks!

 

The weather has officially cooled off and the leaves are changing. Fall is a magnificent time of year where the scenery is gorgeous and the activities are exciting. Pumpkin carving, apple picking, thanksgiving, and the list goes on. Thanksgiving is one of my favourite holidays! You get to spend time with your family, and take a moment to see how lucky we really are. I am so grateful not only for my friends and family, but the wonderful clients I deal with on a daily basis. I just want to take this time to thank all the amazing people in my life that make this work more than fulfilling. Cheers to you!



Before You Leave On Your Next Trip To A Far Off Land

 

With the recent hurricanes on the Caribean it is worth a reminder that before you travel to far off lands, you register your trip with the Canadian Federal Government. There is no cost to do this, and it allows your home country to know if you happen to be on vacation in a part of the world that experiences a natural disaster or undue political turmoil.

Registering is easy:

Use this link to find the Government of Canada Travel Notification Site

There is no fee to register and you can get assistance in a variety of situations such as "Arrest and Detention", "Death Abroad", "Financial Assistance", "Hijacking, hostage takings and kidnappings", "Missing Persons" and "Large Scale emergencies abroad".
