BMW* OFFER EXCLUSIVELY AT

LAST CHANCE to get a BMW* with Pivot townhome purchase.

Why choose when you can have both? You asked for it, and we delivered. We’ve extended our BMW 3 series* offer until June 30 so you can still have the best of both worlds when you purchase a Pivot townhome. “And” is a much better word than “or.” Especially when choosing between a new home or a new car. That’s why Averton is giving you the power to own both. Nestled in the tree-lined community of Rutherford, Pivot townhomes feature innovative spaces and contemporary designs to match your unique lifestyle. With nearby walking trails and roads to amenities and transit, it’s easy to stay connected to the city while still enjoying the comforts that a well-planned community provides. Your home comes with exquisite layouts, a full driveway and private garage. And inside your garage — an engineered-to-perfection BMW 3 Series*. Averton is giving you the best of both worlds. A beautiful townhome AND a new BMW*. Visit the Pivot Presentation Centre to speak to a new home professional today. *Price, offering and specification are subject to change without notice. Rendering is artists concept. E.&O.E. **May not be combined with any other offer, incentive or rebate. Averton Homes (Rutherford) Inc. (the “Vendor”) will be giving away a 24 month lease on 20 vehicles under the promotion. Offer may be discontinued at any time at the sole discretion of the Vendor. European model shown above; features and equipment may vary. The current MSRP of the BMW 320i is $39,990 before expected discounts and/or rebates the vendor and/or purchaser may be eligible for, and the value of the lease term including all interest, taxes and deposits is $16,741. Due to potential price increases that may occur between now and 2017, the Vendor will only be responsible for up to a maximum of $16,741 towards the single payment lease of the vehicle, including all applicable taxes and charges, and net of any rebates. If the price of the single payment lease exceeds $16,741, the purchaser will be responsible for the difference. 24 month lease contract on a 2016 BMW 320i xDrive paid for by the Vendor, includes 12000 kilometers of driving per year; additional kilometers at $0.10 per, and any additional purchased features associated with the vehicle are the responsibility of the Purchaser. Upon completion of the lease term, residual value of the vehicle is $26,794. The vehicle will be made available within 60 days of the closing date of the home (subject to availability from the manufacturer), which is estimated to be in 2016 and 2017. Offer is subject to availability and may be cancelled or changed without notice. See Averton sales rep for full terms and conditions of the offer. Offer expires June 30, 2016.

Important considerations What are the critical things to consider when choosing a location? There are so many personal variables it’s really up to you to decide. As an example, if it is just as important to you to be close to your children’s school as it is to your place of work, then look for a place that offers you the best of both worlds. If you own a car and want to use public transportation whenever possible to save on parking and gas costs, a location close to masstransit may be a better option for you. If you’re a walker, proximity

to major amenities should be a definite consideration. Running errands such as grocery shopping and banking on foot affords many health benefits and provides you with a chance to meet your neighbours and discover new places, too. Make a list of your priorities first, then take the time to assess each location for its merits and weigh your options. Let us know what those priorities are. We’d love to hear from you!

For many Canadian families, financial literacy begins with a piggy bank, maybe a childhood allowance and perhaps a first bank account. Some may continue the education with somewhat more serious lessons – such as reviewing monthly bank statements and explaining how interest works. Moving into the teen years, many families likely entrust the more important matters of personal finance to our education system. But there, we venture to say, they might well be disappointed. David Chilton lamented that fact

more than 25 years ago in his bestseller, The Wealthy Barber. How much have things improved? Based on a number of considerations, not so much. When it comes to real estate in 2016, the lessons are more important than ever. Rising prices mean the costs of living for millennials and other young Canadians are skyrocketing, in some cases, prohibitively high. More and more organizations – from governments to banks and even to investment firms – see the need and are offering programs for financial literacy for youth.

Advice | FUNDAMENTALLY SPEAKING

How to avoid your own moving horror story By Wayne Karl

MORE ADVICE ONLINE ypnexthome.ca/news/advice

WHEN BUYING A HOME, you will

likely consult with a team of trusted professionals — a mortgage broker, a lawyer, perhaps a realtor or builder sales associate and maybe a home inspector. Then, assuming you move ahead with your purchase, eventually you will likely need a mover. People often don’t consider a mover as an important member of their team of professionals. However, given the critical role they perform — taking possession, at least temporarily, of all your worldly goods and moving them without loss or damage — it’s a function not to be taken for granted. Not doing your due diligence and taking the time to select a reputable mover can invite untold problems. Case in point: the following example, which admittedly doesn’t involve a new-condo move, but the experience is all too common. So is the lesson learned — unfortunately, the hard way. I recently contracted a “professional” moving company to carry out a last minute move of five pieces of furniture on behalf of my son, a university student. For a variety of reasons, we decided to hire movers rather than rent a truck. After calling several firms — including large, well-known companies and smaller, independent ones — I selected a moving company in Whitby, where the pick-up was to take place. Drop-off would be in Waterloo. We agreed on price ($350) and time

(9 a.m.) — after I was very clear the move would involve an out-of-town destination. All details were confirmed in a “contract” exchanged via email. The crew was on time for the move the next morning, but almost immediately began talking about a higher rate — $360. Not a huge difference, but it immediately raised my suspicions. I’ll spare you all the gory details, but it’s important to share the lowlights of what happened next: » The company I originally contracted the job to the night before was inexplicably unavailable to actually do the move the next morning, and apparently passed it off to another firm. » My original contact, who was easily available on cell phone repeatedly the night before, suddenly was nowhere to be found. » Once the truck was loaded, the fee increased to $450. » Upon arrival in Waterloo, the movers said the fee was $500. “It’s taking longer than we thought, and the furniture is heavier.” » “Sure,” I said, “right after I call the police.” With that, the sordid tale ended. The job not complete, left for us to move the furniture indoors, now the

victims of one of the top 10 scams monitored by the Better Business Bureau (BBB). “I could write a thesis on this,” John Levi, president of the Canadian Association of Movers (CAM) told me. CAM offers consumers the following tips on how to avoid being scammed by unscrupulous movers: » Find reputable movers through the CAM, BBB or provincial government consumer protection agencies » Ask three movers for estimates in writing » Get the terms and conditions in writing » Ensure your goods will be protected for loss or damage » Read customer reviews on movers’ websites and other forums “Consumers have recourse with their provincial government’s consumer affairs department and with the Better Business Bureau,” says Levi. “Both of these avenues are fraught with difficulties and often take many months to come to some form of resolution — satisfactory or otherwise. And often, the mover simply out-waits the consumer. “It’s far simpler and more effective to engage a reputable mover in advance rather than trying to fix a bad situation after the fact.” My example, though painful and infuriating, is minor compared to other common horror stories involving similarly unsuspecting clients. Make sure you take the proper steps — and the time — to protect yourself. Wayne Karl is an award-winning writer and editor with experience in real estate and business.

A sleek, modern high-rise with a timeless design, it offers spacious floorplans, floor-to-ceiling windows and living spaces designed for entertaining.

“OLD” IS NEW AGAIN... The reclaimed look is trending right now and it is not slowing down. Pinterest is teaming up with projects taking old items and turning them into new art or décor. Furniture and décor stores have many new items that have been designed to look old. Manufacturers have been using reclaimed wood and fabricating what they call “heirloom” pieces. You don’t have to spend hours sanding and repainting or spend large sums of money on custom made pieces to get a vintage look in your space. Use an old steamer trunk for a coffee table – You can find these on Kijiji for under $100. Use old windows as artwork or to frame family pictures, and an old door as a headboard – often these are free at garage sales or for a low cost at reusable stores. You don’t have to fill the entire space with vintage items either. An antique console at the front door or a collection of old keys in a shadow box brings a little interest to your room. A conversation piece could be

a collage of old floor vents that grandpa could not throw away, which are hung on the wall behind the sofa. It doesn’t have to be perfect. In fact, the less perfect the better. The flaws are considered beautiful. Each crack or scrape tells a story and if you do not know the history of that particular item, you can certainly tell the story of how you acquired it. You may have inherited it from a distant relative or traveled the city or even the world to find just the perfect item. Mix and match old with new as well. A dining table made from 100 year old wood will stand up to and equally complement contemporary chrome and acrylic dining chairs. Reclaiming treasures is a responsibility we should all take on to preserve our history as well as keeping these beautiful things out of the landfills and into our homes and hearts.

Advice | CHBA ALBERTA

Rebuilding after the wildfire By Jim Rivait

MORE ADVICE ONLINE nexthome.yp.ca/news/advice

THE FORT MCMURRAY WILDFIRE

has raised key questions about how to help the community rebuild the homes that were damaged or destroyed. This column was written shortly before the re-entry was to begin, but we already know that it will be a challenge to ramp up construction from the very low levels before the fire to meet a sudden rush of demand. Like all Albertans, our Association has looked for ways to help. CHBA - Alberta has been meeting with government and industry representatives to offer our expertise on how to co-ordinate a response. Our CHBA locals in Edmonton and across the province have also raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to help support evacuees forced from their homes. Looking ahead, we anticipate that a number of people returning to Fort McMurray will be very suddenly plunged into the process of making decisions about a new home. New-home buyers typically spend a lot of time doing research – educating themselves about builders, prices and features. They also spend a lot of family time discussing what they want and need in a new home – both today and in the future. While the people returning to Fort McMurray will face different timelines and circumstances than most new home buyers, they still have access to the same tools to help guide them through the process step by step. Under the Buying a New Home 32 YPNEXTHOME.CA

section of our website, consumers will find information to walk them through the process, understand contracts and what to expect during various stages of construction. There are a lot of things to take into consideration and these checklists will help ensure that none of them are missed. CHBA also developed the Get It In Writing materials for consumers planning a major renovation that would be useful for Fort McMurray residents who face major repair work before they can return to their homes. These resources are recommended reading for all consumers who want to buy or renovate a home. They would be especially valuable to Fort McMurray residents who may be targeted by the unskilled and unscrupulous so-called builders who always seem to descend on disaster zones. We’re already hearing about some who claim they can get people into new homes faster and cheaper than companies with years of experience building in Alberta. Unrealistic promises should always set off alarm bells, and this is even more the case than in the difficult and uncertain environment of a disaster area. One important safeguard against

incompetence or fraud is Alberta’s mandatory new home warranty program. Good builders – including all CHBA members – recognize that warranty coverage on a family’s most expensive purchase is essential. In 2014, the Alberta government made it a requirement for all builders to provide a warranty for all new homes and major renovations. This will help screen out companies that do not have a track record in Fort McMurray or anywhere in Alberta. We all want the best for the people of Fort McMurray after this traumatic experience. As an association, we hope to help make it possible for people to rebuild their homes and lives with the least possible stress. The Canadian Home Builders’ Association - Alberta represents more than 1,600 business members including new home builders, renovators, developers, trade and supply companies and professional services. Jim Rivait is Chief Executive Officer of CHBA – Alberta. Starting his career working in government, Jim spent the last decade working in the private sector specializing in government relations, advocacy, strategic communications, policy development/analysis and association management.

Mid-2016 Housing Review: Benchmark of Major Canadian Markets Intelligence House has compiled a summary of key housing market indicators and drivers for major Canadian markets year-to-date in 2016. In the Calgary and Edmonton regions, home sales and new housing starts are notably down, with prices in the Edmonton region decreasing marginally. The negative performance of both housing markets reflects many expectations put forth at the beginning of 2016, particularly in regards to the strong declines in new housing starts. That is, however, a necessary step to bring supply levels in line

with current demands in order to relieve any downward price pressure that currently exists in these markets.

2016 YTD (April) Resale Housing Sales Growth (%)

2016 YTD (April) Housing Price Growth (%) Vancouver Area BC Toronto Area ON Regina SK Montreal QC Winnipeg MN Calgary AB Edmonton AB Saskatoon SK

That said, strong labour market performance in the Edmonton region, coupled with impressive growth in its labour force, generally indicates forthcoming demand for housing ownership. Should these trends persist in the region throughout the year, it is reasonable to expect housing starts within the Edmonton region to return toward growing levels faster than in Calgary.

Growth trends represent YTD measures up to the month indicated.

SUMMERSIDE IS a new neighbourhood at Ellerslie Road between 66th street and Parsons Road, notable for the 28-ft.-deep, 32-acre Summerside Lake, designed for swimming, fishing and nonmotorized boating that is exclusive to members of the Summerside Residents Association. Lifestyle Residents enjoy the laid back feeling of life on the lake. Paddle boat, kayak and canoe rentals are available, should you feel like getting out of your lounge chair. Kids will enjoy the lakeside playground, sandy beach and surrounding lawns. In the winter, the lake is converted to a skating rink and winter programming is offered by the residents association. Vibe Rows of cottage-like homes line up behind green boulevards. The wide sidewalks are busy with young parents pushing baby strollers and tikes learning to ride without training wheels, likely on their way to Lake

Summerside for a day of fun at the beach. A to-do list of errands is easily tackled with commercial services close by. Meet the neighbours Summerside is a family neighbourhood. Although there are young professionals, empty nesters and seniors residing here, it is obvious young parents have chosen this safe and friendly neighbourhood to raise their children. In the area The cost of rent seems to vary depending on the unit’s distance from the beach. Rent is not necessarily cheap, but reasonable. Many of the restaurants, cafes and retailers in Summerside are franchises. The price of services, a meal or a pint of beer will be the same here as it is anywhere else. Planes, trains & automobiles The development of Summerside began before Edmonton experienced its massive economic boom and

some residents got in early. Bus routes come through Summerside and nearby neighbourhoods are easily accessible, but Summerside is largely a car-dependent neighbourhood. Access to major freeways makes getting around the rest of the city easy enough, but expect a longer commute to downtown or anywhere north of the river.

Real estate Although the newer homes are still priced comparably to nearby neighbourhoods, starter homes are no longer as affordable as they used to be. First-time homebuyers are renting out suites in their homes and this benefits the rental market.

hen people think about the typical apartment-style condo in Edmonton they think about a 600–800 sq ft home. That’s why BRASS III’s new project, The Leger, will come as a pleasant and unexpected surprise. Designed for those who love the Riverbend area, who want the maintenance-free lifestyle that a condo offers, but who want lots of living space, The Leger delivers.

the community’s main transit hub on 23rd Avenue. It’s also proximate to grocery stores, shopping, restaurants, cafes, doctors and other professionals, schools and golf courses. And being close to both the Anthony Henday and the Whitemud Freeway makes commuting quick and simple.

BRASS III has an excellent reputation as a builder of choice in the Riverbend/Terwillegar area. They know the community, they know the amenities and residents, and they know how to build great projects (they’ve built over a dozen projects in the area to date). This is amplified at The Leger. The Leger’s 60 units include two-bedroom, two-bathrooms, and are between 1,250 and 1,550 sq ft. All units features nine-foot ceilings, premier finishings like hardwood and tile floors, granite countertops, seven appliances (stainless steel appliances in the kitchen) and oversized balconies. All homes are self-contained, too, with their own hot water tank and heating system, and in-suite laundry. The building will also have low condo fees because there are no common amenities in the building—other than the heated underground parking. Instead, resources are put toward towards elements like soundproofing and improved construction materials. The Leger is in a prime location, in the heart of Terwillegar. It is steps from the new multimillion dollar Terwillegar Community Recreation Centre (with its pools, indoor track, gym, gymnasiums, ice sheets and indoor playground) and just a quick hop to

There are a handful of floorplans to choose from, and suites starts in the low $300’s. Now selling and possessions start in April 2016. Of course, the sooner you get in the more choice you have on floorplans and units. So swing by the sales centre today at 625 Leger Way. Mon-Wed 4pm-7pm, weekends 1pm-5pm.

10TIPS

for painting great looking walls

By Jane Lockhart

AS A NEW-HOME OWNER, you have

two choices: you can either stick with the standard “builder beige” or you can refine your painting skills, put on a pair of coveralls and give it a shot. This is not to say that all new homes are adorned with builder beige, but unless you were able to pick multiple colours in the paint and finishes of your space, chances are your home could probably use a new coat. I was trained to paint properly way back when I started my design career more than 20 years ago. Some of you may know that I began as a junior designer at Benjamin Moore Paints. I never dreamed that I would learn so much useful knowledge about colour and paint.

46 YPNEXTHOME.CA

So before you tackle any painting job, big or small, follow these simple rules for a seamless finish. 1. Buy a metal cage The cage is the metal handle that holds the actual roller or sleeve. The better this is, the longer it will last, it won’t squeak when rolling or rust when washed. 2. Buy a sleeve with a plastic centre The sleeve is the furry cylinder that you put on the metal cage or handle. If you buy a cheap sleeve with a cardboard interior, it will start to fall apart when it gets wet in the paint. Then it will leave small fluffs on your wall and all your hard work ends up looking poor.

3. Buy a large paint tray! This is so much easier, as you can pour almost a full can of paint into the tray which means less pouring of paint and hopefully less mess. This also means less stopping of the job to pour paint into the tray. 4. Really coat the roller sleeve When putting paint on the roller, really coat the roller sleeve. It is designed to hold paint! Fluffier roller sleeves hold more paint, which means you go to the tray less often and this will speed up the job. Really soak the roller in the tray so it absorbs the paint.

…continued from page 46

5. Avoid tiny strokes in a small area When applying the paint to the wall – do not roll it in tiny strokes back and forth in one small area. Begin by rolling a large “W” on the wall with the roller and then roll the wall fully from top to bottom. This will lie out the paint better and faster. 6. Apply the recommended amount of paint Apply the recommended amount of paint to the wall. People often try to stretch their can of paint a little farther by not applying as much as suggested by the manufacturer. There is no value in this as the paint is meant to be applied to a certain thickness to give you the right colour and durability. Too little paint compromises this! 7. Don’t brush all the edges first Although it is tempting to cut-in or brush all the edges of the walls before rolling the paint on, you are less likely to get a good finish. It is best to brush a little of the edges then roll into that wet paint, and continue this process down the wall. It takes longer but you will find the coverage of the colour more even. 8. Always use two coats of paint Yes, you usually need two coats of paint to develop the colour well or to ensure you don’t miss any spots. There are some brands of paint that suggest you only need one coat, but I have found this to work only with a light colour over another light colour, and when I take my time applying the paint. 9. Store your paint cans upside down Paint does not “go bad” as long as it’s not kept in extremely cold conditions. Seal the lid very well (Place the lid on the can, cover with paper, and hammer the lid in

place, remove paper) and turn the can upside down in a cool dry area for storage. When the can is turned right side up again, it mixes before you dip your brush in. 10. Buy a good paintbrush Buy one good paintbrush. Cost can be an issue, but a good brush means you will only buy it once if you clean it after you have done the job. A good brush has “flagged” ends and is angled. Flagged ends look like the bristles are uneven and with split ends. This lays out the paint in a much smoother fashion. And once you do clean your brush, use the hole in its handle to hang it up to dry. Never leave a paintbrush sitting in a pot! I use a wire coat hanger turned upside down to dry

my brush. (Hook the brush’s handle on the “J” shaped end of the hanger and hook the triangular part of the hanger over a doorknob.) BONUS TIP Can’t find an opener for your paint can? A screwdriver or keys will work, but if you are Canadian the best thing ever is a loonie or toonie to open the lid of a paint can! It’s always available and super strong for this type of job. Thanks Canadian Mint for the convenient opener! Even if you are not the best painter and not using the best paint, great tools will make the job easier, faster and it will look better! If you follow these simple rules, your newly built house or condo will turn into your home in no time.

Advice | MAKE YOUR MOVE

June 30 is still the busiest moving day of the year By Chuck Resnick

MORE ADVICE ONLINE ypnexthome.ca/news/advice

THE BUSIEST MOVING DAY of the year is June 30. According to Two Men and a Truck – Canada, that day is particularly popular for several reasons. Thousands of people will make their moves during the Canada Day weekend, which means movers will be going all out to provide the necessary services. It also means that each year, those who wait until the last minute to book moving trucks and/or movers for June 30 are disappointed when they find nothing available. The school year is over by the end of June, and families with children usually want to wait to move rather than disrupt the kids’ routine. Of course, June 30 ushers in the Canada Day long weekend, which means an extra day to unpack and organize before going back to work. Above all, even considering its unpredictability, weather makes June 30 an attractive moving date. Let’s face it: cold and snow add challenges to any move. By the end of June, the full heat of summer hasn’t kicked in yet, and the chance of rain is slim. Practically speaking in the financial sense, this date represents the midyear renewal deadline for property taxes and rental leases, which also plays a role in people’s timing. If you want to move on June 30, you may have to make several calls to make a booking, but every minute you wait lessens your chances. Consider having your mover pack 50 YPNEXTHOME.CA

for you. Keep in mind that with time running short, professional movers can get your items ready to move quickly and efficiently. Getting your possessions to your new home in excellent condition is just as important to us as it is to you. If you still decide to pack yourself, you may want to purchase packing supplies from your mover. Our boxes are available in consistent sizes, which makes stacking them in the truck easier. And remember that it’s counterproductive to move items you will just throw out at the other end. Take some time to sort and pitch. A great way to be sure you are totally ready for your move is to use

a checklist. You have many things to think of, such as notifying pertinent people and companies of your change of address. You may have to enroll kids in their new schools; make arrangements for pets, babies and toddlers to be looked after on moving day; schedule the shut-off of utilities and phone at your old address and start-up at your new place … you get the picture. You can find a moving day checklist at twomenandatruck.ca/ moving-checklist. Chuck Resnick is vice-president of marketing and operations, Two Men and a Truck Canada. twomenandatruck.ca

Reasons to teach your kids about real estate sooner than later By Wayne Karl

IT’S JUNE AND SCHOOL will soon be out for the summer. What better time to teach your kids about real estate? Why? There’s actually more than 500,000 reasons to do so. The number is really 508,097 – as in dollars, the average price of a home in Canada as of April 2016, according to the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA). This represents a 13.1-per-cent year-over-year price gain. Need another reason? How about 45 – as in the percentage of millennials, in a survey conducted by New Home Guide, who don’t believe they will be able to buy a home in Canada within the next five years. Just 25 per cent per cent believe they will be able to buy a home in the next five years, while 25 per cent say “with a lot of help, maybe.” Not exactly the most encouraging stats. Need more, still? A new poll by CIBC reveals 63 per cent of millennial respondents plan to buy a home in the next five years – but almost half of them have not even begun to save. Faced with a myriad of financial challenges, 54 per cent of future millennial buyers say coming up with the required down payment is the biggest obstacle to homeownership, the CIBC poll says. About half are concerned that job security (53 per cent) and rising real estate prices (46 per cent) will impact their ability to buy. Given such realities, teaching young Canadians financial literacy at an earlier age is increasingly important. Sound familiar? It might, if you’ve ever read The Wealthy Barber, David Chilton’s 1989 best seller in which 54 YPNEXTHOME.CA

readers were implored to “pay yourself first” and max out your RRSP. The book also lamented that personal finance wasn’t a key part of the curriculum in our education system.

property courses in our schools. Some organizations, such as the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada, major Canadian banks and even investor groups, are taking such

matters into their own hands, with programs for financial literacy for youth. The CIBC poll underlines how strong the need is.

“Millennials want to own, and many plan to do so in the next few years, but they’re facing many obstacles and competing financial priorities,” says Barry Gollom, vice-president, mortgages and lending, CIBC. “It’s important that they sit down with an advisor and map out a realistic time frame for making their dreams of homeownership a reality – it’s not easy, but it’s attainable.” Another CIBC poll finds Canadians are sympathetic to millennials’ struggles for homebuying. The majority (56 per cent) say something should be done to help the younger generation enter the housing market. Three-quarters (77 per cent) believe buying a home is more difficult for young Canadians today than it was for previous generations. “It’s not just young Canadians that feel that buying and maintaining a home is a challenge for their generation,” adds Gollom. “Canadians across the board regardless of age agree and a majority are calling out that something should be done to help.” Because… those five years that millennials believe they need to save up for a down payment? If things continue as they are, prices could be further out of reach. In 2012, the average Canadian price was $363,606 – representing 39.7-per-cent gain to the current $508,0907. At that rate, in five years, the average would be about $709,811. Mind you, the national average price is skewed by activity in Toronto and Vancouver. Take these two markets out of the equation, the average is a more modest $369,222 and year-over-year price growth 8.7 per cent, CREA says. There are markets in Canada that are more friendly to millennials. Need another reason to teach your kids about real estate sooner than later?

Advice | MORTGAGE ADVICE

5 ways to boost your down payment By Alyssa Furtado

MORE ADVICE ONLINE ypnexthome.ca/news/advice

WITH THE AVERAGE PRICE of a home

in Canada now costing more than $500,000, many young people need all the help they can get when it comes to coming up with the down payment for their first home. If you’ve just started saving and are looking for ways to give your down payment fund a boost, the five tips below will help you save more money faster to afford the home of your dreams and leave you with a smaller mortgage. 1. Make a tax-free withdrawal from your RRSP If you’re a first-time homebuyer, you can make a tax-free withdrawal of up to $25,000 tax free from your RRSP under the Home Buyers’ Plan (HBP). This means a couple purchasing their first house together can each withdraw up to $25,000 from their RRSPs, for a total of $50,000 towards a down-payment on their first home. The money must be paid back over a period of 15 years beginning in the second year after you made a withdrawal. 2. Use your tax refund If things such as unused tuition credits, moving expenses or RRSP contributions will net you an income tax refund when you file your taxes, resist the temptation to spend it! Instead, save it as part of your down payment fund. Your income tax refund is one of the easiest ways to quickly boost the balance of your down payment without putting any strain on your everyday budget. 56 YPNEXTHOME.CA

3. Trim expensive luxuries from your budget

5. Borrow from the Bank of Mom and Dad

Cutting your daily coffee from your budget will probably only save you a few hundred dollars per year, which won’t go far if you’re planning to buy a home anytime soon. However, if you’re spending more than $100 a month on expensive cable packages or pricey gym memberships, axing these from your budget and redirecting the cash to your down payment fund will give it a noticeable boost. You don’t have to give up everything to become a homeownership but you should prioritize the goal over non-necessities you won’t really miss.

Your parents raised you, took care of you when you were sick, and prepared you for life. While you may feel bad about asking for a handout, many young Canadians expect financial support when buying a home. In fact, a 2015 BMO survey finds that 42 per cent of first-time buyers actually expect their parents or relatives to help pay for their first home. And 40 per cent of first-time buyers say they wouldn’t be able to afford a home without financial help from family. For many young people, the down payment for their first home will be the largest sum of money they’ve had to save up so far, so it’s no surprise they find the task daunting. However, with commitment and a plan, you’ll be able to save up the down payment you need in order to afford the home you want. RateHub.ca is a website that compares mortgage rates, credit cards and deposit rates with the goal to empower Canadians to search smarter and save money.

4. Find a side hustle to fund your goals One of the easiest ways to really ramp up your savings for a down payment is to dedicate an income stream to achieving the goal. If you can find parttime work outside the regular hours of your job or freelancing you can fit in your own schedule, you can use all the extra income you earn towards saving for a house. You might be reluctant to put a few more hours in at a second job if you’re already working full-time, but if working evenings and weekends will make your home ownership dreams come true, it’s a worthy sacrifice.

Alyssa Richard is the founder and CEO of ratehub.ca, a mortgage rate comparison site that aims to empower Canadians to make smart financial decisions.
