Whether you're starting out, moving up or just making a change, buying a home can be a daunting proposition.

I have prepared a number of short briefing reports to assist you. Consider this your home buyer’s toolkit. Open it up, take a look around, and if you like, start equipping yourself with the tools necessary to make your best purchase. In most businesses, knowledge equals power, and real estate is certainly no exception.

One new piece of knowledge are the two incentives announced in the Federal Budget passed by parliament on Feb 2^nd for first time home buyers. The first is a change to the existing incentive for 1^st time buyers, which increases the amount individuals can withdraw from their RRSP from $20K to $25K with up to 15 years to repay the withdrawal without penalty. The second is a new tax credit for 1^st time home buyers, which allows you to claim a new tax credit of up to $750 on closing expenses incurred to a maximum of $5,000.

I hope you enjoy the free reports we've provided, and that we've helped you learn a little more about what it takes to make your purchase a great one.

The real estate market in Ottawa has shifted to a sellers market in recent months and well presented, well priced homes are selling quickly accross the region, the trick is to learn how to recognize the true gems among the properties available and being prepared to act quickly when they do become available. This is where we can help.
