How much do you actually need for a down payment in Ontario?
🏠 5% on the first $500,000
🏠 10% on the portion between $500,000–$1,499,999
🏠 20% on homes $1.5M+

Less than 20% down means you'll need mortgage default insurance (CMHC, Sagen, or Canada Guaranty) β€” I can walk you through exactly what that costs.

"I'll just start looking at houses and figure out financing later." 🚫

Please don't. A mortgage pre-approval tells you your real budget, locks in a rate for 90-120 days, and makes your offer stronger. Skipping this step is the #1 mistake I see first-time buyers make.

Transparency is everything in this industry.

I'll always tell you exactly how I'm paid, what your options are, and if I think a product isn't right for you β€” even if that means sending you somewhere else. My reputation is built on trust, not transactions.

Thinking about refinancing your Ontario home in 2026?

Refinancing can help you: consolidate high-interest debt, fund renovations, access home equity, or lower your monthly payments. But there are costs involved β€” I'll help you calculate if the numbers actually make sense for your situation.

Self-employed in Ontario? You can absolutely qualify for a mortgage β€” it just requires a bit more documentation and the right lender.

I work with several lenders who specialize in self-employed applicants. Your business income is an asset, and I can help you show that on paper.
