"How to buy a home the right way"
http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/cmhc...date-1.4002973
Includes the CMHC free guide to buying a home. Rent vs. ownership, home affordability, up-front costs of owning, etc.
Note the debt servicing ratios of 32% (GDS) and 40% (TDS) for CMHC are actually well below what they will allow, at 39 and 44% respectively. However, a few financial advisors I work with like to use 32/40 for their clients. It's important to find the right range for you and your lifestyle.
