×The start of a new year is a great time to take stock of everything that happened in the past year... with your mortgage!

Find out why you'll want to review these documents and listen for important tips to ensure accuracy and potentially save some money. Have a listen!!!…
The Bank of Canada has once again dropped their key policy rate, this time by .25%. This rate drop will most likely cause Canadian banks to drop their prime rate by .25%, which would bring prime to 5.2%. For those with Variable Rate mortgages, Adjustable Rate mortgages, and Home Equity Lines of Credit - you will see a change to your mortgage (either payment or amortization period). For those with Fixed Rate mortgages, there will be no change. Just a reminder that in general, fixed rates follow long term bond yields and are not directly impacted by the Bank of Canada rate changes like variable and adjustable rates are. Lots of information to unpack in today's announcement. Have a listen to this episode, and reach out to us if you have any questions! Next rate announcement is March 12th, come back and listen!…

The beginning of a broker / client relationship is warm and encouraging as we discuss the client's goals and how we can achieve them...then we ask for supporting documentation... Quite often a client may feel like we're asking for too much information, and it can be quite a bit of home work for the client finding all the pieces! In all cases each lender is very specific on what they want to see in order to verify income, down payment, property details etc. We do our best to streamline the process for our clients, but document collection is a reality when it comes to getting approved for a mortgage. This episode lays out all the various documents that may be required under various scenarios. If you haven't applied for a mortgage before, this is a great listen!…
Effective December 15, 2024 there are some MAJOR changes to insured mortgages. One big change is that purchases of up to $1.5M can now be insured mortgages which means your down payment can be less than 20%. Another change is bringing back 30 year amortizations on insured mortgages. Buyers who are considered first-time home buyers or buyers of newly built homes can now get a mortgage with a 30 year amortization. Lastly, we discuss the latest inflation numbers with CPI coming in at 2.0% for August which means there could be some downward pressure on variable rates. Have a listen to see what we think!…
