#8 - RATES RATES RATES: Updates, Renewals & Porting

Everyone is talking about rates again! (Shocker). So today Paul and I are also talking about rates. What is going on with them? Have they gone down? Will they keep going down? We also dive into the options people have if their renewal is coming up in the near future and also about options for those looking to buy a home now and port their existing low rate (its not always as good as it seems!)

#6 - New vs Old | How to Pay For Those Renos

Today Paul & and I discuss a VERY hot topic, it's one that almost every buyer I work with mis-understands.
SCENARIO: You're pre-approved for $500,000 but you want to buy a house for $300,000 and put the $200,000 difference into a reno budget to improve the home. Sounds like a plan, right? Not really. 
Get educated on the pros and cons of buying a new build vs an older home and how you can properly fund those dream renovations. We also talk about how to navigate things like hazardous materials in old homes (Asbestos, aluminum, wiring etc.)

#3 - ”What Realtors Really Do” with Benny Woligroski

Today I chat with veteran Realtor Benny Woligroski who is based out of Calgary Alberta and we discuss the many things that go on behind the scenes of a transaction in real estate. Turns out there are plenty of jobs your Realtor does that likely don't come to mind when you think about our stereo-typical job description. Wasps, dog hair and snow are just a few things we talk about. Host: Tyler Robb (www.tylerrobb.ca)

What's going to happen with interest rates in the coming months? We also cover the importance of a pre-approval and why its different from a pre-qualification, we discuss the differences between dealing with your bank vs a mortgage broker and why chatting with a broker may be in your best interests!
