Advantages of dealing with a Mortgage Broker








What is a Mortgage Broker?
A mortgage broker is an independent professional who works as the liaison between the borrower and the lender to negotiate mortgage loans. We are mortgage loan specialists. Whether you are purchasing a new home, switching your mortgage, or refinancing you existing mortgage, many factors must be considered. Its our job to analyze specific needs and find the best mortgage product that satisfies your budget and goals.

Why use a Mortgage Broker?
We have access to numerous lending institutions and investors. We will make sure to get the best loan possible: the best interest rate, conditions, and prepayment privileges. You won't have to deal with any financial institution yourself. We deal with the same lenders you're used to dealing with. Including the 'Big Banks' and Trust Companies. We deal in great volume of mortgages and pass on the savings to you. We also deal with some innovative broker-only lenders who can offer even more attractive rates and features.

I've Been Turned Down by the Bank. Can You Help?
Maybe. Don't get discouraged if you are turned away by a bank - you might still be able to obtain a mortgage. Your bank has a certain set of criteria that you don't meet but other lenders, including some large institutions, may still take you as a client. We can advise you on how to fix your current situation so that you may qualify for a mortgage in the near future. We also have access to private lenders ranging from individual investors to mortgage investment corporations that use a different set of criteria to make mortgage decisions.

How Fast Can a Mortgage Broker Work?
We strive to provide you the fastest and most reliable service possible. Operating with the up to date software and technology, we can offer a quick turn around time on applications. We will explain your terms and conditions including the interest rate, prepayment privileges and clarify all of your questions. We build our reputation on timely service, reliability, creative thinking and a conscientious attitude towards your needs. At the very least we'll treat you like a human being, and not a number!

Where to invest in real estate now

"Want to buy a house in Vancouver? Hope you have lots of cash. The average price of a house in Lotus Land hit $490,004 in February. Think about it for a second. That's nearly half a million dollars--and 26.5% higher than a year ago. Put another way, it now takes a household income of $142,000 a year to comfortably purchase a place to live. Wasn't the real estate market supposed to slow down this year? Apparently not. And it's not just Vancouver that's experiencing double-digit price increases so far this year. Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) figures show the average home price from February 2005 to February 2006 rose 26% in Calgary and 15.5% in Edmonton, both economic boomtowns of late. But even relatively moribund Toronto saw an increase of nearly 6%, for an average price of almost $354,000. That's a lot of money to put on the line if you're thinking of investing in the real estate market--let alone looking for a place to live. No wonder people are...

Reverse mortgage can pump up your retirement pay

"QUESTION: My husband and I are retired with a total annual income of $40,000. We owe $145,000 on our home, which is worth $475,000. We don't have any extra to play with. We would like to know whether you would advise us to consider a reverse mortgage. ANSWER: A reverse mortgage could pay off your existing mortgage and eliminate the monthly mortgage payments you are currently paying. This could free up some income for you to play with each month. Here's essentially how it would work. A reverse mortgage would pay off your existing mortgage balance of $145,000. Then, rather than having to make monthly interest and principal payments, the interest charged on the loan would simply add to the balance of the loan. Let's assume your home will appreciate by 4 percent in the coming years, and the reverse mortgage interest rate averages 6 percent. Ten years from now, your home is worth $703,000 and the balance on the reverse mortgage is $260,000. In 20 years, your home is worth ...
