Paying $3000 in rent? You have more options than you realize!

If you're paying $3000 in rent, you could be getting better deal by looking at buying a home under $600,000! Not only will the money stay in your own pocket, but real estate has historically increased in value, especially over the long term.

Believe it or not, here in Niagara, we have many options for homes in decent shape (maybe needing a bit of cosmetic work) in the $400,000 to $500,000 price range, which makes the payments even less! You have even MORE options if you're comfortable with renovating. You can even bundle certain renovations into your mortgage to help avoid increasing your payments. There's always the DIY option for any tradespeople out there too. You just need to know where to look, what to look for, and how to structure your offers to protect yourself, like always.

You can watch my first YouTube video here (yes, I finally did it)! Everyone's first videos are awkward though........right?

I specialize in working with buyers, and in getting people out of the rent trap! Even if you're not ready yet, you can always reach out for help developing a plan and becoming more aware of what's going on in the market!
