In my interview with Starr, we discuss first-time homebuyer mistakes to avoid, choosing your real estate dream team and protecting your home in divorce.

In my interview with Heather, we discuss what is a shared-equity mortgage and how does it differ from a traditional mortgage, pros and cons of the First-Time Home Buyer Incentive and whether it will help homebuyers in Toronto and Vancouver.

In my interview with Ian, we discuss the housing plans of the Conservatives, Liberals and NDP in the 2019 federal election. Topics include the 30 year amortization, mortgage stress test, First-Time Home Buyer Incentive and foreign buyers’ tax.

I’m probably jinxing it by saying this, but this year has been pretty quiet home repair wise. I haven’t had to do anything major like replace my dishwasher or repair my roof. The worst thing that’s happened this year is the clothes dryer stopped working. (I unplugged it to let it cool down, plugged it back in and it worked good as new!) So when I came home one night to find the garage door broken, I thought, boy, this is it!

In my interview with Janine, we discuss preparing ahead of time to buy a home, planning for a move and what it’s like going from being a renter to a homeowner.
