Hi Everyone,

I recently received a quick mortage rate update from our friend John Walsh, as well as a few helpful CMHC links. Enjoy!….

Folks,

I don’t know about you, but for me navigation of the CMHC site is like poking myself in the eye some days.

I did a completely unrelated search and found a series of, well, what I have to term useful links.

First link to help folks calculate online what they can afford as far as mortgage is concerned. Step by step.
Second link give a list of all “related” expenses to buying a first home.
In the list they mention “hand tools”. I say “power tools”, but then again I am a guy. 🙂
That portable table saw has to be the most useful item I’ve ever bought, which reminds me I have to go build a square foot garden box for mother’s day.
