Takes 2 to Tango but not to own your home-Angela Calla

General Angela Calla 8 Mar

Lindsay is an administrative assistant at an office in Burnaby making $16/hour. Lindsay had been renting for 3 years and was tired of it. She had moved a couple times and wanted the freedom stability of owning her own place, but didn’t know where to start. She had a dream of owning her own home but wanted a plan! Over the last number of years she was saving her money diligently and had accumulated just under $13,000 by the time we progressed to the next step in December.
     We went through some planning and budgeting for what it would cost to buy a place and the all processes associated. In January she started looking with a Realtor suggested by our team. Lindsay found a perfect home and her offer was accepted $7000 below the asking price! She completed in February with a 5% down payment and is now the proud owner of a condo in Port Moody. She is going to bank $25,000 over the next five years with her mortgage product and will upgrade down the road with her equity she is building, not to mention save lots of money in gas as it’s so close to everything!
     If you know someone who wants to purchase in the next year or two please introduce me and we can get them on the right track. It will take a little planning, there is no ‘one size fits all when it comes to buying a home. However, whether they are two months away or two years, a tailored plan with The Angela Calla Mortgage Team, will be very beneficial.
