First Time Buyers and Green Alternatives

Published 06 May 07 04:09 PM | Anne Lok 

Many first time buyers are too worried about being able to find a home they can afford, and are neglecting the cost savings options they have in the green real estate market. Sourcing an energy efficient home can lower energy bill and benefit from cost savings in the long run. I recently contributed to a real estate article for the Globe and Mail titled " How much inefficient house can you afford?" for first time buyers. This article along with the supplement of the green buyers guide are good general information for buyers.

Canadians can save money by insuring their mortgage with a term life policy. Term life is usually cheaper than bank mortgage insurance, and the premiums are non-taxable. Term life allows the homebuyer and not the lender to name the beneficiary. Convertible policies are available for those who wish to have continued coverage; at the end of the term, the policy can be converted into whole life insurance.
