Buying Your First Home

Homeownership is a significant investment and can signal the beginning of a new stage of life for many Canadians.

Join us to look at the pros and cons of home ownership, the steps of the home-buying process, and some of the government programs available to help along the way. It’s never too early to start thinking about whether buying a house is right for you.

The “Buying Your First Home” workshop aim is to help you understand the home-buying process, and whether it’s the right move for you.

You will learn whether buying or renting is a better fit for your lifestyle and needs; how to prepare for and navigate the home buying process, including ways to determine what you can afford and how much you need for a down payment; government programs and other service providers like real estate agents and mortgage brokers who may also play an important role. 2/3 of Canadians own their own home, but it isn’t for everyone. If home ownership is part of your future, start planning now—it may be the most significant investment of your life.
