Happy Wednesday friends!

Just a friendly reminder: Your financial situation doesn't define you!📢

If you lost your job, you won't be broke forever. If you have debt, that doesn't make you a failure ( 86.82% of Canadians are in debt) If your budget is stretched, that doesn't mean you can never learn to manage your money better.

No matter how badly your situation may feel, you are not alone and there are solutions. The sooner you explore your options, the sooner you will have some peace of mind.

Financial stress arises due to any number of reasons. It also doesn't discriminate; anyone can feel stressed financially. The way you help yourself is how you can ease that stress.

Helping yourself out of debt and dealing with financial problems isn't a fast or easy process but setting yourself up for success and looking after your long-term financial stability is always worth the effort!

You should be proud of all the work you've been implementing in working that debt down, saving that extra amount this month or that you've paid off your student loan! These are all small steps to a bigger picture.

Celebrate all the small financial wins you've achieved so far! If your big goal is purchasing your first home, let's work on that together! You're not alone and there is always a solution.

I'm here to help whenever you need. ❤

Life happens! 🤷🏼‍♀️

Homebuyers should always try and look at their life plans, as best they can, in order to know how best to select a mortgage. Planning ahead can result in you saving thousands of dollars down the road.

Questions to consider asking yourself:

> Do you anticipate staying in your home for 5 years or longer?

> Are you planning to start a family or grow your family?

> Do you plan on moving for work?

> Do you want to pay off your mortgage quickly?

> Are you covered if a member of you family faces a job loss or illness?

The fact is, life doesn’t slow down for the challenges and it doesn’t slow down for the victories. Creating a plan can help the ride be a little less bumpy and having a Mortgage Agent on your side can give you a little more support ✨

Are you a first time home buyer? 🏡

The Home Buyers’ Plan (HBP) is a Canadian program that allows you to have access to your RRSP as a down payment!

You have access to up to $25,000 ( tax-free 🤯) to buy a qualifying home for yourself.

If you’re purchasing a home with another person who is also a first time buyer, they also have access to the HBP of $25,000 for a combined total of $50,000 to towards your down payment!

This a very attractive program for people because it allows you to put more money down without the taxation and the penalties.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions or how to qualify.

12/08/2021

When trying to make a large financial decision it can be hard finding a Mortgage professional you can trust. In Canada, you have the choice between a Bank or Credit Union representative and a Licensed Mortgage Broker.

As a Mortgage Agent working for a Mortgage Broker, I have access to the same programs the Banks and Credit Unions do. More often than not, Mortgage Professionals have access to a wider range of products than the Banks. Typically, Banks and Credit Unions can only sell their own products.
This means, working with a Mortgage Agent, you will likely have better options that better suit your current financial situation. There is a huge misconception about working with a Mortgage Agent. People tend to think you go to them after your Bank has declined your file. This is far from the truth.

Lenders come in many different forms and it's about finding one that works best for you.

Banks are common in the marketplace and tend to be some of the largest lenders but with limited product options.

Monoline Lenders specialize in a single product. Mortgages. They work with only Mortgage Brokers passing savings on to the client with low rates and low payout penalties.

Credit Unions are provincially regulated in Ontario. They are regulated through the Ministry of Finance's Financial Services Commission of ON. Clients of Credit Unions are member-owners of a financial co-operative. They also only have access to their own products.

Alternative Lenders are a flexible solution for clients that don't meet current qualifying criteria.

Mortgage Brokers have access to Private Lenders who may be a corporation that have a pool of funds from investors or individuals that lend their own money in the form of a mortgage.

There are virtually endless reasons why deciding a Mortgage Broker over a Banker is most likely the best fit for you. If you are still unsure, let's chat to figure out your best fit! 🏡
