With the cost of houses and condominiums rising exponentially each month, it has become more difficult for potential homebuyers to enter the market. There are many resources available for new homebuyers of which they might not even be aware.
RRSP Home Buyers Plan.com is a comprehensive site providing knowledge and resources to Canadians looking to enter the real estate market. The Home Buyers Plan (HBP) allows first-time homebuyers or persons who have not been homeowners for five years to withdraw funds from their RRSP to purchase a home, with no income tax payable on the amount withdrawn.

Further, there are resources for information on insurance, estate and will planning and tax strategies.
