HAVE YOU EVER CONSIDERED THE BENEFITS OF BUYING VS RENTING?

Written by

There is no doubt about it, there are definitely some benefits to renting a home rather than taking the leap to purchase. Your costs can be lower than if you purchase but what about getting a return on that investment?

The article below sets out 5 really good incentives to buy instead of renting.

 

  1. Possible Tax Breaks
  2. Getting help from CMHC to purchase a home
  3. Using your RRSP contributions as leverage
  4. GST New Housing Rebate
  5. Building Equity and Credit

YOUR BC ASSESSMENT IS IN – LEARN MORE ABOUT WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU

Written by

If you live in BC, you may have already received your new BC Assessment. Understanding why your Assessment has increased or decreased compared to the previous year can be extremely confusing.
One of the most important things to understand is that the Assessment is actually based on the market value of your house as of July 1st the previous year, and not the market value in January when the Assessment is mailed. The Assessment also does not necessarily have any bearing on the actual Market Value of your home and this can lead to even more confusion.
For a more accurate, up to date valuation your Realtor can create a Comparable Market Analysis. Contact Garry Voigt and let his expertise help you understand your home’s market value.
There is a lot of information contained with the BC Assessment website that tries to help clarify
the Assessment process. Click on the video and link below for more.
If you disagree with you Assessment you can appeal but you have to do this before the January 31st deadline!!
