How I’d Structure a $21,000 TFSA for Constant Monthly Income
Many Canadians might feel like the last three years slipped through their fingers.

Did you know opening an FHSA early is one of the smartest steps for future home owners ?
The FHSA, or First Home Savings Account, is designed to help first-time buyers save faster. The biggest advantage is tax savings.
➡️ When you put money in, you get a tax deduction – just like an RRSP.
➡️ When you take the money out to buy your first home, it’s tax-free – like a TFSA.”
Here’s something most people don’t know: you don’t have to deposit right away. Once you open the account, you start building contribution room, which means even if you don’t put money in now, you can catch up later.
Are you wondering if you qualify for FHSA ?
Contact me for further information : 705-970-4435
