This was secondary to my Quicken fail.

Partners on this page provide us earnings. Partners on this page provide us earnings. When buying a home, you’ll need a mortgage – unless you’re independently wealthy and can slap down hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash. If that’s the case, congrats. I’m jealous. For the rest of us, though, a mortgage is a necessity. And lenders don’t hand mortgages out to just anyone. It would help if you qualified by proving you can afford the mortgage and that you’re a borrower with solid credit.

Why we should talk about money

Why we should talk about money with friends Let’s go back to the pop culture well for a second. Everyone’s favourite group of television friends from the 1990s went out to dinner during one episode. Struggling with their own respective financial woes, Rachel, Joey, and Phoebe order meals that are both light on the stomach and the wallet. Their more gainfully employed friends, Ross, Chandler, and Monica, order more expensive seafood dishes.

How to Save for a House in Canada

Nov 16, 2021 |
By Justin da Rosa
| Ratehub.ca
Justin da Rosa November 16, 2021 Owning a home is a major life goal for most Canadians. Home ownership allows you to build equity while living in your primary residence (as opposed to paying off someone else’s mortgage) and gives a certain sense of pride that renting just doesn’t. Not to mention the fact that real estate has provided significant annual appreciation for the past couple decades. But saving for a home can be tough.
