WHAT COULD AN EXTRA $5/HOUR GET YOU? 💰
You might be surprised… it could mean an additional $100,000 in home-buying power! 🤯
In my last post, I highlighted a starter home in Oshawa. But what if you’d prefer to live somewhere else?
Small changes in income = BIG difference in mortgage qualification.
💡 Here’s an example:
If you and your partner each earn just $5 more per hour, that additional household income could potentially increase your purchasing power by $100,000!
🏡 85 Sidney Rundle Road, Bowmanville, ON
3 bed / 2.5 bath
Here’s what it could take to purchase this home:
✅ Two applicants earning $25/hour each
✅ First Time Home Buyer with no other debts
✅ As little as 5% down payment
✅ Estimated mortgage payment: $2,260/month (principal & interest)
🎯 The key isn’t just finding the right home. It’s understanding what you can qualify for and how to get there.
That’s where working with a knowledgeable mortgage broker makes the difference!
