House & home
Homeownership is a significant undertaking, whether buying or selling a home or renovating or building one. It is a major life purchase that significantly affects personal and financial levels. Whether you are a first-time buyer or a seasoned homeowner, the journey towards achieving home ownership – and making it your own – can be both exciting and challenging.
Both personal and financial implications extend far beyond the initial purchase. It provides a sense of stability and security, offering a place to come home to after a long day of work or raise a family. Homeownership also provides opportunities for personal growth, such as taking on home improvement projects and renovations, cultivating a backyard garden, or hosting social events for friends and family.
