π β¨ DEAL OF THE WEEK β¨π
Theyβre both over 55 and wanted to move into a reverse mortgage, but their property was still zoned CH1 Commercial. On paper, that made the file a hard βnoβ for most lenders.
Most brokers wouldβve told them to sit tight and keep paying 12% on their existing $225,000 private mortgage until the rezoning went through.
Instead, we got creative: we secured a new $275,000 private 1st that looked past the temporary zoning, paid out their old mortgage at a lower cost, and put extra money in their pocket. Itβs fully open, so once the property is rezoned residential, we can move them into a reverse mortgage with zero penalties. No waiting. No unnecessary roadblocks.

A βnoβ from the bank because of zoning shouldnβt put your retirement plans on hold. It just means you need a broker who knows how to build a bridge to get you where you want to go.
