I'm now a permanent resident and I'm looking to purchase a house, potentially for my parents as well.
I'm currently self-employed (almost 2 years now) and so I don't have a "standard" source of income especially since our company is still new and I'm not on payroll. I plan to travel back and forth in the coming months so having a home instead of keeping on renting will be very advantageous.
My parents are willing to help me purchase a home, in case they do want to retire here in a few years time and it would also be a good investment. We have a medium-sized business back home as our source of income.
I currently live in Vancouver where homes start in the $1M range. Because of my employment status, I understand I'm likely to put up at least 35% down payment? My parents have been sending me money bit by bit, but it'll take a while to save up to $350,000.
Does anyone have experience in wiring funds in this volume? Or perhaps getting a loan as a new immigrant? Also I got my PR in Jan 2018, do banks still see me as a new immigrant?
Appreciate all the advice!
