PLEA gratefully acknowledges our primary core funder the Law Foundation of Saskatchewan for their continuing and generous support of our organization.
Buying or selling a house is often one of the biggest purchases a person will make. Understanding the law can help you make informed choices when doing so. It is important to protect yourself against common legal and financial pitfalls.
A home is, for most people, the most expensive thing they will ever buy. Understanding all the costs involved can help purchasers make an informed decision about what they can afford to spend on buying a home.
Choosing a home to buy is a big decision. Knowing about options and potential issues can help.
There are different ways to sell a house. Each option has advantages and disadvantages.
Property disclosure statements are filled out by sellers and can contain useful information. They often do not tell the whole story, however.
When a house is sold, the parties enter into a contract that has the terms of the sale.
Most people borrow at least part of the money they need to buy a home. Borrowers will have certain obligations to the lender.
When a house is sold, the title must be transferred to the purchaser's name. There are options concerning how multiple purchasers can hold title.
The Saskatoon and Regina public libraries are hosting free Law Fairs to help people learn about their legal rights/responsibilities and connect with legal information and support. In Saskatoon, check out the free screening of The Good Canadian presented by Legal Aid Saskatchewan. There's lots to see and do during the 11th annual Saskatchewan Access to Justice (SKA2J) Week!
