High Maintenance Fees

May 26th, 2014, Owen Bigland

I can't stress how important it is for buyers to not get too caught up in what appears to be a high maintenance fee on a condo or townhouse. I sometimes see buyers exclude a property from their search just because they think the monthly maintenance fees seem high without asking some questions on what that monthly Maint is covering.One of the first things you need to ask if you're buying a Strata property in Richmond is if the home is on metered water. This alone can add over $70 a month to your fees. Other important questions to ask: Is it hot water heat? If it is, then heat and hot water would also be included in your monthly fee. Finally how much money is going into the contingency fund each month and what's the current balance o ...

The Title Search

May 16th, 2014, Owen Bigland

Before you ever put an offer on a property you're going to want your Realtor to obtain a copy of the title search for that property from the land titles office. The title search contains some vital information that you will need to know such as:Who the registered owner or owners of the property are.  What type of encumbrances are charged against the title. There are 2 types: Financial - The most common being a bank where the owner has a mortgage. Financial charges are fairly easy to remove from title. The second type is a  physical encumbrance, these usually can never be removed from title. They are known as Inter Alia or they run with the land. It's critical that your Realtor do some investigating on these physical charges against ...

Start Early

May 6th, 2014, Owen Bigland

Had a tweet from a financial newspaper last week asking me for my single best piece of advice for a person on their road to achieving financial security. I could give about a hundred that I've learned over the years but if i could only give one it would be to start early. Save and buy your principal residence as soon as you can. Preferably in your 20's or early 30's. Time and compounding are on your side when you get into the market at an early age. The reverse is true when you wait until your mid 40's or later. The same can be said for your RRSP and TFSA accounts. Get started on them as soon as you can. You don't need to be maxing them out just get some money in there and working for you early.
