Moving to Canada is very exciting!
You are probably spending hours in front of your computer researching about everything related to living in Canada. One of the first things that comes into mind is housing. Where should I live in Canada? Should I rent or buy? How much should I put aside for a down payment? What kind of place would be the best option for me and my family but also within my budget? What are the most trustworthy resources and websites that I can use without worrying about being scammed?
We understand it can be quite stressful to do this without being physically here in Canada, and that’s why we have partnered with Scotiabank to host this webinar to help you find a place to live in Canada.
Webinar overview
In this webinar, we will cover the following topics:
- Understanding your needs and budget
- Resources to help you in the research process
- Costs to keep in mind
- Key things to consider when looking for a home
- Working with Scotiabank Financial Advisors and Home Financing Advisors
- An interactive question and answer session so we can address any questions you may have!

Launched in 2008, the Scotiabank StartRight Program is designed to simplify banking for Canadian Permanent residents, International Students and Foreign Workers who have recently landed in Canada. We can help ease your transition to Canada by getting you started with a Scotiabank International Account that allows you to transfer up to $50,000 before you arrive to help you feel more prepared knowing you have proof of funds ready. We can even help fast track your study permit with the Scotiabank Student GIC Program.
Our Scotiabank StartRight program can also help you start banking in Canada with 12 months of free banking, access to credit with no credit history, unlimited no-fee international money transfers, and expert help from Financial Advisors.
We also launched ScotiaRISE – our new, 10-year, $500 million community investment program designed to help promote economic resilience among disadvantaged people and communities. In particular, the program is centred on using funding and partnerships to increase graduation rates and postsecondary enrolment, help newcomers feel at home faster and secure meaningful employment and senior opportunities for underrepresented groups. It’s all part of why Scotiabank is the bank for newcomers.
