Your best Mortgage Advisor is the one who is working towards your goals, not for the goals of one specific bank or lender

I believe in transparency and education. Mortgages can be complex, so as a Mortgage Advisor, my focus is to make the process as seamless as possible, while addressing all of your questions and concerns upfront. My mission is to provide you with the best mortgage solution while offering guidance and clarity about your options. As a mortgage agent licensed with Mortgage Architects, I assist homebuyers in Canmore, Banff, Cochrane, Calgary, and throughout Alberta, to establish the best mountain mortgage for their specific scenario.

My business is built on integrity and trust; I only recommend mortgage solutions that I would use myself.

Home Buyer Pre-approval

Getting pre-approved for a mortgage is a crucial first step in understanding your budget and making your dream home a reality. As a Mortgage Advisor, I offer no-cost pre-approvals as a service, to help homebuyers understand their financial eligibility and explore their mortgage options. Having a professional on your side will give you someone to lean on to answer questions throughout your home-buying journey, and can also save you both time and money, by comparing the different options side by side.

Mortgage Renewal

Don’t sign the lender’s renewal without shopping for the best rate and terms! Mortgage lenders make it very easy to sign on the dotted line, but the renewal they send you may not be the best rate or option available. Connect with me today to discuss the best current options being offered. It may be a little more work than signing a renewal, but it could offer significant savings over your new term and throughout the span of your mortgage.

Refinancing

Review your mortgage regularly! A mortgage refinance can be a great tool in the right circumstances. It can help you lower your overall costs by rolling in higher interest obligations to a new mortgage, or it can be used to pull out equity so you can make bigger plans. A Mortgage Refinance is where you break your existing mortgage and replace it with a new mortgage - new loan amount, rate, and terms. There are many factors involved, including how much equity is built up in your current mortgage and what the cost is to break your current term. Reach out to get the full picture, so you can decide if this is the right step for you.

Buying Your 'Next' Home

When you are ready to sell your home and buy a new one, your first move should be to look into 'all' of your options. This may include bringing your existing mortgage with you if it is portable. However, there are times when breaking your current mortgage and setting up a completely new mortgage can actually save you money in the long run. Reach out! As a mortgage advisor, I can help you compare your options. Make sure you are buying your new home with the best mortgage.

Vacation / Second Home

Owning a second home can be a great option. It may offer an opportunity as a financial investment over time, and perhaps more importantly, as an investment in your own lifestyle. Whether you are fulfilling a dream of having a weekend retreat, or if it just makes sense to buy a second property while your kids are in university. The appeal is often as much economic, as it is an investment in yourself and your family.

Buying a Rental Property

Residential real estate can offer an excellent financial investment opportunity. As a rental property, there is the benefit of having the costs of ownership offset by income generated by the tenants. Buying a rental property needs to be analyzed to make sure it is sustainable, even if the property is vacant at any time. Reach out, I can help review the total costs versus potential benefits.
