Workshops

Are you interested in buying a house? You're going to want to join us for this Adulting 101 panel! Presented by: Tristan Ritchie (Sales Representative with Coldwell Banker Charles Marsh Real Estate), Josh Dumencu (Mortgage Agent with Neighbourhood Dominion Lending Centre), Laura Voltti (Account Manager, Municipal Property Assessment Corporation), and Amy Best (Lawyer, Best Law Offices). From getting pre-approved for financing to viewing homes, making an offer and closing the deal, our panelists will walk you through the basics of the home buying process from start to finish. We’ve assembled a panel who can shed light on each step of the home buying process and answer questions you may have. About Adulting 101: According to Urban Dictionary, Adulting is in fact a verb… Adulting is the act of “doing grown up things and holding responsibilities such as, a 9-5 job, a mortgage/rent, a car payment, or anything else that makes one think of grownups” So why don’t they teach you the in’s and out’s of being an ‘adult’ in school? Sure, we know we have to pay bills on time, buy a house, and balance a job / volunteer all while maintaining a social life. So how does one go about adulting properly? That’s where the YPA comes in. Our new Adulting 101 series will teach you everything from raising your credit score, managing your money, perfecting your ‘young professional’ image, to mastering the art of picking the perfect bottle of wine for under $10.
