Book

The real estate retirement plan : an investment and lifestyle solution for Canadians / Calum Ross with Simon Giannini.

Ross, Calum, (author.). Giannini, Simon, (author.).

Summary:

Many Canadians who own their home have never considered buying a second property. And nearly one-third of retirees are worries about running out of money. <i>The Real Estate Retirement Plan</i> shows how homeowners can use the tools already available to them - their mortgages - to access the intial capital to invest and prepare for their retirement. This is a proven, validated antidote to today's historically low savings rates, poor current rates of return, and pressure on CPP and health care.
