Buyers should try to pay as much in cash as possible for a property, limiting the mortgage value to as little as they can afford. This means they not only pay less in interest but their monthly costs are also reduced. Ideally, the monthly mortgage payment should not exceed 20 per cent of the purchaser's total household income, says Carol Glynn, founder of Conscious Finance Coaching.
'If it's a rental property, plan for the property to have periods when it does not have a tenant. Ensure you have enough cash set aside to pay the mortgage and other costs during these periods, ideally at least six months,' she says.
Also, shop around for the best mortgage interest rate. Understand the terms and conditions, especially what happens after any introductory periods, Ms Glynn adds.
Using a good mortgage broker is worth the investment to obtain the best rate available for a buyer's needs and circumstances. A good mortgage broker will help the buyer understand the terms and conditions of the mortgage and make the purchasing process efficient and easier.

The Uefa Nations League, introduced last year, has reached its final stage, to be played over five days in northern Portugal. The format of its closing tournament is compact, spread over two semi-finals, with the first, Portugal versus Switzerland in Porto on Wednesday evening, and the second, England against the Netherlands, in Guimaraes, on Thursday. The winners of each semi will then meet at Porto's Dragao stadium on Sunday, with the losing semi-finalists contesting a third-place play-off in Guimaraes earlier that day.

Ronaldo in tears after Portugal beat Spain to lift Nations League title
Portugal skipper Cristiano Ronaldo shed tears of joy as they won their second Nations League title on Sunday, insisting that winning trophies with his country beats all club honours. Ronaldo's 138th international goal in the second half took the final to penalties after a 2-2 draw with Spain, with the substituted 40-year-old forward looking on from the sidelines as Portugal netted all five spot kicks to claim the title. The triumph, which left the five-times Champions League winner in tears, was Ronaldo's third on the international stage, accompanying his 2016 European Championship and 2019 Nations League winners' medals. "What a joy," Ronaldo told Sport TV. "First of all for this generation, which deserved a title of this magnitude, for our families. My children came here, my wife, my brother, my friends. "Winning for Portugal is always special. I have many titles with clubs, but nothing is better than winning for Portugal. It's tears. It's duty done and a lot of joy. "When you talk about Portugal it is always a special feeling. Being captain of this generation is a source of pride. Winning a title is always the pinnacle in a national team." Ronaldo's future remains uncertain. He said last week he did not plan to play at the Club World Cup in the United States, which starts later this month, despite being courted by clubs taking part in the 32-team tournament. The Al-Nassr forward said he had several offers from other teams to play in the US, while his side's sporting director, Fernando Hierro said last month they were negotiating with Ronaldo over a contract extension but faced competition from clubs eager to sign the five-times Ballon d'Or winner. For now, however, he is only focused on celebrating his latest triumph, having played in the final with an injury. "It's beautiful," he added. "It's for our nation. We are a small people, but with a very big ambition. "The future is short term. Now is the time to rest well. I had the injury and that was the maximum, the maximum ... I pushed, because for the national team you have to push." Yamal struggles Spain's exhilarating 5-4 victory over France in Thursday's semifinal ensured Luis de la Fuente's side had continued an unbeaten run that stretched back to March 2023 coming into Sunday's showpiece final in Munich. They appeared on course for yet another trophy, on the back last year's European Championship triumph, as Martin Zubimendi tapped home his second international goal in the 21st minute. The holders' lead did not last long, however, as flying Portugal full-back Nuno Mendes slotted home the equaliser after good work from Ronaldo in the build up. A sublime pass from midfielder Pedri helped Mikel Oyarzabal, who netted the winner against England in last year's European Championship final, restore Spain's lead before the break. The tussle between the Iberian neighbours was billed as a clash between old and new – 40-year-old and five-times Ballon d'Or winner Ronaldo and Spain's teenage sensation Lamine Yamal. While Yamal, among the favourites to take home one of the most prestigious individual awards this year, struggled to make inroads, Ronaldo pounced on his chance, firing Portugal level from close range just past the hour mark. Ronaldo went off injured late on and neither side could find a winner in extra time, with the game going to a shootout and Portugal netting all five of their penalties to claim the trophy.

Tearful Cristiano Ronaldo revels in Portugal's Nations League triumph
There were tears again. But this time, they were of joy, not heartbreak. At 40 years old, Cristiano Ronaldo – the eternal talisman of Portuguese football – knelt on the turf, overwhelmed, as Portugal lifted another international trophy on Sunday night. The Uefa Nations League was theirs. And with it, more records, more legacy, and one more moment in a career already bursting with them. It was Ronaldo's 138th goal in a Portugal shirt in 221 appearances that sent Sunday's final against Spain to extra time. He latched onto a deflected Nuno Mendes cross in the 61st minute and buried it, sending the Portuguese crowd into raptures. It was the kind of moment that has defined Ronaldo's career – clinical, theatrical, inevitable. Spain had led twice-through Martin Zubimendi and then Mikel Oyarzabal – but Portugal never folded. Mendes had struck once to cancel the opener, and when Ronaldo levelled again, it was left to the penalty shoot-out. He didn't take one-having already exited to a standing ovation in the 88th minute – but he didn't need to. His teammates converted all five penalties. Portugal triumphed 5-3. 'I have many titles with my clubs, but nothing is better than winning for Portugal,' he said afterwards, voice cracking. 'These are tears. It's mission accomplished and so much love.' Ronaldo admitted he entered the match carrying an injury, one he had felt for some time. But the five-time Ballon d'Or said there was any danger of him not playing. 'For the national team, if I had to break my leg, I would have broken it,' he said. 'I have lived in many countries, I have played for many clubs, but when it's about Portugal, it is always a special feeling." Ronaldo was met by a deafening roar as he emerged from the tunnel for his pre-match warm-up. Fans pointed phones, wore shirts bearing his name, and clung to every movement as if it might be the last. His future at club looks uncertain, with his contract at Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr ending this month and speculation swirling about his next move. The former Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus star has also ruled out a Club World Cup cameo, despite, he says, fielding offers from participating clubs. And though he won't beat father time, it seems highly unlikely, with another World Cup on the horizon next year in North America, that the Portuguese great will hang up his boots. His worth to the national team coach Roberto Martinez has borne out this past week, with Ronaldo scoring the winning goal against Germany in the semi-finals and equalising against Spain to take the game to penalties. "A captain with the type of experience he has is essential, to show the necessary values and personality," said Martinez. "Spain was ahead on the scoreboard twice, but the captain has a lot of experience and we used his experience to show we are ready to win." Nuno Mendes, who scored Portugal's first, set up Ronaldo's goal and converted a penalty in the shoot-out, praised the veteran's impact. "He deserves everything. He helps us a lot on the pitch and off it," Mendes said. "He's got a winner mentality. He's a role model. We're happy we've got him." On Sunday, Portugal lifted a trophy. But more than that, they witnessed a legend doing what he does best.
