Re: You buy the house and then Invest,
It is that simple. Research "the smith manouver (sp?)". there is much information on the net about it. And even a book at chapters. Its a TAX STRATEGY that canadian home owners use to turn there mortgage into tax deductable interest debt. It is perfectly legal. Americans dont bother because their gov'ts already allow them to deduct their mortgage interest against their personal income. Your accountant will fill you in on the minor details as you obviously have no clue about canadian tax law. If your accountant is not specialized in the smith manouver (sp?) then find one that is. Or you could just do the research yourself.
