🎃 Happy Halloween from Canvas Mortgage! 👻
There's plenty to be scared of on Halloween…
But your mortgage doesn't have to be one of them.

Don't let these common mortgage myths haunt you:
👻 “I need 20% down.”
👻 “My credit has to be perfect.”
👻 “I won't qualify.”
👻 “I don't know where to start.”
The truth?
Every home-buying journey is different.
Instead of letting assumptions scare you away, let's talk about your options.

🏡 Your dream home shouldn't be a ghost story.
Happy Halloween from your friends at Canvas Mortgage!

Thank you to Nicole Reimer, with Merchants & Marine Bank, for coordinating a great breakfast with Kristie Wheeles and the agents of Wheeles Realty.

During the event, Adrienne Powers of Canvas Mortgage provided an educational update on the upcoming UAD 3.6 appraisal report changes and discussed how Canvas Mortgage can help support agents and their clients throughout the home financing process.

This gathering was a great example of the collaboration between Merchants & Marine Bank and Canvas Mortgage, bringing together banking, mortgage, and real estate professionals to share knowledge and strengthen relationships within our community. It also reflects the spirit behind our connected Family of Brands as divisions of TownBridge Bank: connecting people, businesses, and opportunities while supporting the communities we serve.

When you're shopping for a home, it's easy to focus on the purchase price.

But what you'll actually pay each month can depend on more than the price of the house.

Your monthly mortgage payment may include things like:
🏠 Principal
💵 Interest
🏡 Property taxes
🛡️ Homeowners insurance

Understanding the full picture can help you create a more realistic home-buying budget.

Save this post for later—and talk with a Canvas Mortgage Loan Officer when you're ready to explore your options.

Let's normalize asking the mortgage questions you think you're supposed to already know the answers to.

“What does this mean?”
“How much do I need?”
“Is my credit okay?”
“What happens next?”
“Can you explain that again?”

Yes. Yes. Yes.

Buying a home is a big deal. You should feel comfortable asking questions throughout the process.

That's what we're here for.
No question is too basic. Start the conversation with Canvas. 🏡

Picture yourself here. 🏡🍂

Slow Saturday mornings.
Coffee in your favorite mug.
Nature’s scenery.
A back porch that feels like yours.

Sometimes the dream of home starts with a picture.
Let's turn that picture into a plan.

Canvas Mortgage is here to help you understand your options and take the next step toward homeownership.

Meet Danelle Daughdrill, Vice President of Mortgage Operations Coordination at Canvas Mortgage! 🎉

With decades of experience in the mortgage industry, Danelle has worn just about every hat there is — from processor, loan officer, underwriter, shipper, and mortgage department leader. In 2021, she joined the team that helped build Canvas Mortgage from the ground up, and she’s been an invaluable part of our story ever since.

Today, Danelle is the person behind the scenes helping our teams solve problems, navigate changing guidelines, keep our systems running smoothly, and, most importantly, make sure our customers have a great experience. 💙

But what does she enjoy most about her role? Solving problems. As Danelle puts it, “I always look forward to any problem because I know it is a chance to learn something new.”

Outside of work, you can find Danelle enjoying adventures with her three pups — Bindi, Baxter, and Oakley - traveling with family and friends, checking destinations off her bucket list, and supporting causes close to her heart, including St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

After all these years, one thing is clear: Danelle truly loves what she does. ❤️

“It doesn’t seem like work to me. I have loved every minute of it. These people who work here at Canvas Mortgage and TownBridge feel like family. I am proud to be a part of it.”

We’re proud to have you as part of the Canvas Mortgage family, Danelle! Thank you for the knowledge, dedication, problem-solving, and heart you bring to our team every day. 🏡💙
