    This is one of the best videos that I watched lately coming from an immigrant couple working together for the betterment of their family members. You see the love and respect for each other. One can understand that they both worked towards a common goal. That doesn't mean there's no challenges but one can see they're able to overcome them and make them work.
    I enjoyed your video so much. I don't know how it happened. That's my first time watching you.
    I appreciate your honesty and the mutual respect for one other.
    I learned so much from you that I can pass on to my relatives living in Canada and elsewhere.
    You're very knowledgeable and welcoming. It seems like I've met you before. That's how comfortable you make me feel.
    For all teaching and sharing, you gained a new subscriber today.
    Stay blessed.
    Peace and love.
    Watching you from the States.

    Congratulations on acquiring two houses. It's a big deal. I just want to add ur well explained topic. Qualifying for a house with legal Basement suite can be costly for families. You can still develop a Basement suite in $320k house. What should be your buying criteria is house with separate entrance. That way, you can develop later. Speaking from experience, we bought a house without a legal Basement suite and we developed within a year. It cost us $55k in Alberta. Renting $1,150 per month. We did the same in our 2nd house. We have never bought a house with a complete legal Basement suite. The flow of cash is more. When you develop ur Basement suite with a reliable contractor. Both mortgages are less than $2k monthly. So we are basically spending less than $1k each month in our two houses. More insight for people out there. Thank you 😊

      In Saskatchewan, a legal suite always has a separate entrance. We developed the basement but it could not be rented out as a dwelling unit because it didn't have its own entrance.

    This is good and I'm happy for the couple. I live in Canada and I know that if you earn a decent pay as a couple, owning 2 houses in 5 years is not a big deal TBH. You can plan well and buy your first house in 2 years and 2 years after, you can save to buy another or even borrow from your equity on the 1st house to buy a 2nd and the cycle continues....

    • @MARINAESIRI
      @MARINAESIRI  4 місяці тому +5

    Sounds a lot more sensible and relatable than some other narratives out there. Without belabouring the points, as immigrants, we are already late to the party when it comes to having a decent shot at owning a property. So sometimes a bit of urgency is in order as long as one has a strategy similar to what you’ve shared. And totally agree you don’t want to overstretch yourself when you’re budgeting for a house, especially the first time. House buying can and should be a part of your wider financial strategy, in addition to investments, pensions, retirement planning balanced with actually enjoying life now. This is what I and my SO are doing. It works most of the time.
