Buyers often arrive at closing only to find they are unprepared for additional costs which must be factored into the overall monthly payment calculations. Taxes are one example of this and can leave buyers floored when they see how much they add to the cost of the home. Others are aware of these extra costs, but still make common and costly mistakes which can easily be avoided. "Free Home Info Kelowna addresses both topics and many more to ensure buyers get the best deal possible when purchasing real estate," Mr. Webb continues.

Experienced and first time home buyers may overlook foreclosures when looking for an appropriate property for their needs. "A bank foreclosure continues to be an excellent way to save considerably on a Kelowna home. Finding the right property takes time as buyers must keep searching to see which homes are now going through this process. Free Home Info Kelowna searches for these properties and shares the information with potential buyers so each client finds the right property for his or her needs," Mr. Webb declares.
