Once you move in there will also be on-going costs such as property tax or condo fees, utility set-up fees and home and fire insurance.
Life is full of surprises - check out the advantages of a life insurance policy.
As there will be some costs associated with closing, be sure to put money aside to cover things like home loan insurance, land transfer tax, and legal fees.
Remember your mortgage qualification was based on your income, so if you’re planning a career switch or going on maternity/paternity leave, let your agent know.
Kate was incredible! The time and patience she took with our situation was admirable. Kate understood our needs and wants and was able to deliver on both. Kate explained everything in complete detail so we weren't met with any surprises and our expectations were realistic. Kate was an amazing liason with our mortgage company and real estate agent, working seamlessly together. I will continue to use Kate's expertise in the future and recommend her to anyone and everyone. Such a joy to have as part of our house hunting team. Thank you again Kate!!
