Increased AB Fees That Affect YOU

Our Government has made changes to Real Estate fees in Alberta and as a potential home buyer, I think you need to pay attention to this …

As of Friday, March 27th TWO fees that effect the closing costs of your home purchase have increased:

[Changes take effect July 1st, 2015]

Mortgage Land Title Registration

When you purchase a home you register the title, for that piece of land, with the Alberta Gov’t.

The fee to process this registration is now $75, up from $50.

Variable Mortgage Land Title Registration

When registering your home and Mortgage on title of the land you’ve purchased, your variable fee to do so is now

$6 for every $5,000 of Mortgage you are borrowing. This is an increase from $1 to $6!

Why This Matters To You?

At EVERY angle of your home purchase, either the Government, or another service provider, is digging into YOUR pockets.

There isn’t much you can do about the Government fees – so what CAN you do?

Well, you can shop around for the best Realtor and Mortgage Broker.  Good ones help save you money.

And by “save money” I don’t literally mean they cost less or give you money back.

That could be a couple hundred dollars or even a couple thousand.

What I’m talking about is SAVING you from a bad purchase, a predatory lender, a bad deal, a bad Mortgage …this LITERALLY could be tens of thousands!

What’s In It For You?

I help each of my clients to shop around for their Mortgage provider BEFORE dealing with me.

Why?

Because I truly want you to feel good about choosing me as your provider.

I want you to feel good knowing EXACTLY what is out in the market and what you are getting working with me.

100% transparency.  100% no obligation.  100% risk free.

Because of this I am attracting high quality people who pay their bills on time, have solid credit and stable income.

If that’s you AND you have questions about purchasing a home or how to even get started, reply to this email now.

Talk soon,

Chad Moore

P.S

I am hosting a webinar in a couple weeks with local Realtor so we

can help you understand all things Calgary Real Estate.

Look for that LIVE event coming soon!
