CMHC Releases 2015 First-Time Home Buyers Survey

(firmenpresse) - OTTAWA, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 11/12/15 -- Buying your first home is an exciting time but it also comes with many questions, concerns and in some cases, nerves. With that in mind, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) released today its 2015 First-Time Homebuyers Survey (#FirstTimeBuyers) coinciding with the fifth anniversary of Financial Literacy Month (#FLM2015).

"For many Canadians, buying their first home is the single, largest purchase they have ever made." says Nathalie Fredette, Vice-President, Client Relationship Management. "Our aim is to provide mortgage brokers, lenders and other industry professionals with valuable information and useful tools so they can better guide their clients through this major life event."

"CMHC's survey results reiterate the central role that mortgage professionals play in providing first-time homebuyers with the information they need to manage their money and debt wisely," said Jane Rooney, Canada's Financial Literacy Leader. "The more we understand the financial literacy needs of Canadians, the better we can be at providing the right information at the right time to help them build their financial knowledge, skills and confidence."

2015 SURVEY HIGHLIGHTS:

CMHC offers a number of free tools and resources, including online calculators and a Homebuyer Step-by-Step guide, to help potential homebuyers evaluate their financial readiness so that they can make an informed homebuying decision.
