      @@David-fx8sm We keep it low so you can take advantage of the rewards from your ccs. There is no way to lock in but I can say we don't currently have plans to increase pricing and we haven't changed it since launching the business :)

      What if my girlfriend is my landlord? I pay $1000, less the fee, but plus the cc benefits - isn't it net positive in our relationship balance? I must be missing something

    Well presented! Adding to that; the uninsured mortgage can be amortized up to max. 30 yrs. which improves affordability.

    30% against pre-tax income is too high
    After taxes, social insurance deductions, your $120k salary might be $90k
    $4k (just for home expenses) every month against a take home pay of $7.5k/month is too risky. Need to also factor in other living expenses like food, kid's education, etc
    A safer threshold is 20% against pre-tax income or lower

    Hi Gabrielle! Love how you're showing people how you're breaking down the costs of homeownership! What's the program you're using to screen share and record your face at the same time? It's so pro!

    Why use gross annual income and not your net? Surely your net is more relevant?

    Hello! Thanks for making such great videos.
    I have a question about my two young children. I want to open accounts for them now so I can get them started for investments and have accounts working for them.
    Please advise of what the best thing to do is?
    Or maybe a good idea for a video 🙂
