Young Couple Mortgage Advice
Penticton may be best known as a vibrant retirement resort community but it’s also a big draw for young couples with career, business, and familial aspirations on the mind (not necessarily in that order). In fact, recent data shows that the male-female age group between 20-39 makes up nearly 20% of Peach City’s population. That number is expected to grow significantly in the immediate future as over the last year Penticton (in addition to Summerland, Peachland, etc.) has seen a rental boom from younger people migrating from the B.C.

But of course, the prospect of a large investment for young couples can feel fairly daunting. Fret not, because with some proper guidance you could be making the smartest decision of your lives. Let’s review.
