A little mortgage housekeeping tip that could save you some unnecessary stress later.

If you’re moving money around for your down payment or closing an account those funds came from, keep the paper trail. Download statements, take screenshots, save account numbers and hang onto anything that shows where the money came from and where it went.

It might feel excessive at the time, but if a lender comes back asking for additional verification, you’ll be very glad you have it.

Mortgage applications involve a lot of documentation, and sometimes it’s the little things you save along the way that make the process much smoother.

My general rule? If you think we might need it later, save it. 😊

PSA: You don’t have to be ready to buy a home before you talk to a mortgage broker.

In fact, I’d much rather hear from you when buying is still a year or two away. It gives us time to have a conversation, figure out where things stand, and make sure there aren’t any surprises waiting for you when the right home eventually comes along.

There’s no pressure and no expectation that you need to do anything right away. Sometimes getting a little information now can make the whole process feel a lot easier later.

So if buying a home has even started to cross your mind, you’re allowed to ask the questions now. My inbox is always open.

Canada’s federal Foreign Buyer Ban is set to expire January 1, 2027.

Will ending it bring investment and help restart stalled housing projects—or push prices even higher?

This week on the Greater Victoria Real Estate Show, Jane Johnston, Andrew Plank and Jen Lowe discuss:

� Home prices and affordability
� Condo presales and new housing supply
� Foreign investment and the economy
� What it could mean for Victoria and B.C.

Should Canada extend the ban—or let it expire?

A phenomenally low mortgage rate pops up. Obviously you want it… right? 👀

Well, there can be a little more to consider.

One of the advantages of working with a mortgage broker is access to a wide range of lenders. A lender may offer a particularly competitive rate when they’re looking to bring in more business.

Great news for a buyer, but the rate still has to work within the rest of your home purchase.

If you have a financing condition with a deadline attached, there’s a balancing act between finding a competitive mortgage and making sure your financing can actually come together when you need it to.

Because when you’re buying a home, the lowest number on the page isn’t the only thing that matters.

I spend a lot of time talking about mortgages around here, but there are parts of my life that mean just as much to me and deserve a spot on this page too.

Being involved with the Victoria Junior A Shamrocks () is definitely one of them! 🍀

There’s something about this community that is hard to put into words until you’ve been part of it. I’ve made some pretty special memories over the years, met wonderful people, and somehow found myself caring about this team more and more with every season.

The Shamrocks have given me that, and I’m incredibly grateful to be a small part of it.

And yes, I’ll happily keep cutting the kiwi. 😉🥝

Been told no by your bank because you’re self-employed, incorporated, commission-based, or your tax returns don’t show your true earning picture?
That doesn’t necessarily mean you can’t qualify for a mortgage.
There are lenders that look at self-employed and business income differently — and sometimes the solution is simply knowing which lender fits your situation.
Whether you’re buying, refinancing, renewing, or looking to access equity, it’s worth exploring your options before assuming the answer is no.

Sometimes the dealbreaker isn’t the kitchen, the price, or even the location. Sometimes… it’s the parking spot. 👀

I had clients this summer who really liked a property, but once they looked at how the parking spot would actually work for them and their vehicle, they realized it just wasn’t going to.

They tried to find a solution, but ultimately, it was enough for them to walk away from the property.

And I think it’s a good reminder when you’re buying a home: pay attention to the little things that will affect your everyday life.

Where will you park? How easy is it to get in and out? Where will you put the stroller, bikes, groceries or all the other things that come with actually living there?

The things that seem small during a showing can feel a whole lot bigger once you’re dealing with them every single day.

Think a parking stall is just a parking stall? It could affect your property value, your resale potential, and even whether you can use the space the way you expect.

Join us live, September 16 at 8:30 AM for the Greater Victoria Real Estate Show.

This week, we’re breaking down one of the most overlooked parts of buying and owning real estate: PARKING.

We’ll cover how parking can affect property value, the different types of parking you’ll find in strata properties — including leased, titled, limited common property, common property and assigned stalls— and why buyers need to understand exactly what comes with a condo or townhouse.

We’ll also discuss strata parking rules, visitor parking, EV charging, street parking and municipal restrictions, plus the parking issues buyers should investigate before removing conditions.

Whether you’re buying, selling, or already living in a strata, parking can have a much bigger impact on value, convenience and resale than many people realize.
