Real Estate Toronto Canada

If you are in the market to buy your first home this year, it’s time to put on your running shoes. While I expect that we will be in a buyer’s market for the rest of the year, for qualified buyers the best time to buy a home may be in the next 2 months. Not only is the tax credit ($8,000 after closing to qualified buyers) expiring for contracts put together by April 30th, but mortgage rates are projected to go up soon, too.

So, if you are thinking of buying now (or later), but aren’t sure where to start, this webinar is meant for you.

Here are the details:

Thursday 02/18/2010 from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM Central standard time.

You do need to register in advance. https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/303507864

Some of what I will cover includes:

• Why this is the best time to buy a home in years, and the best time for years to come.
• How to qualify for your $8,000 tax credit.
• How you can avoid the big first time home buyer mistakes which can cost you thousands of dollars. 
• What you can do to put yourself in the best position to qualify for a mortgage.
• What lenders look for on your credit report, and what you can do to raise your scores and improve your credit
• What you need to know before buying a condo in Chicago.
• How you can buy with a low down payment, and possibly no money out of your own pocket.
• What you need to know about FHA, and why this is the most popular program for first time home buyers
• The steps involved in buying a home, from start to finish.

There will be time after the presentation for live questions from the audience.

If you are thinking about buying your first home some time this year, this should get you off to a great start. Again, here is the link to register:
