Don’t Borrow to Buy!!!
RRSP Loans: You’ve probably seen the video clips on social media: someone cheerfully explaining how you can “stop using your own money” to buy a home. The idea sounds clever — borrow up to $50,000 from the bank, dump it into your RRSP, claim a juicy tax refund, then pull it back out 90 days later under the Home Buyers’ Plan (HBP) for your down payment. It’s marketed as a hack to get into the market faster, maybe even with “free money.”
