      <image:title>Blog - Government of Canada Introduces 30 Amortization for First-Time Buyers Purchasing New Builds - Let’s look at an example:</image:title>
      <image:caption>Buyers with a gross household income of $100k who are purchasing a resale home will be able to purchase a home at a max price of about $425,000 and will have a monthly payment of 2,345.93 Buyers with a gross household income of $100k who are purchasing a NEW BUILD home will be able to purchase a home at a max price of about $450,000 and will have a monthly payment of 2,285.64 Net impact: New Build vs. Resale - you can potentially purchase about $25k more house but have a payment that is $50 less each month.</image:caption>

One of those decisions might be regarding the form of construction agreement you sign with your contractor. The type of contract that is best for you will depend on a combination of factors including your preferred alignment of incentives, budget flexibility, tolerance for risk, need for detailed disclosure, time and willingness to monitor the process and ability to effectively assess the costs.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Title Insurance Explained - What is Title Insurance</image:title>
      <image:caption>Title insurance is an insurance policy that is paid for by the purchasers of a property, to protect the buyers AND the lender’s interests against losses that may arise with respect to the property’s title or ownership. Even though, in Alberta, we use the Torrens System to register title, mistakes can happen. Title insurance protects against these mistakes. It is very important that you have an experience Real Estate Lawyer when you close your Real Estate transaction, but title insurance protects you in the small percentage chance there is an issue with the title between the time you sign at the lawyer and the time of funding.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Credit Checks: Soft vs. Hard Checks</image:title>
      <image:caption>Almost every day we have clients ask if we need to do a “hard credit check” to get them pre-approved for a mortgage. The answer is simple, YES. We need to make sure that we fully understand our clients credit profiles, that the credit bureaus have the most up to date information and that the bureaus aren’t reflecting any mistakes. You would be surprised to hear that in about 1 out of 10 files we see a mistake or inaccurate balance on our clients credit reports. We want to know all of this information BEFORE our clients write and offer, this way we can be out in front of the lender getting the bureau updated prior to submitting a mortgage application.</image:caption>
