Our FAQ
Here are some questions we're often asked: Isn't a mortgage broker cheaper? Actually, no. Our rates are often below those that a broker can get. In fact, more and more lending institutions prefer not to deal with brokers and will often not make their best rates available to them. Why not a broker? Brokers don't have any affiliation with a particular lending institution. That means that once they've found your mortgager, they're out of the picture. Because we maintain a long-term relationship with each TD Canada Trust branch in the area, continuity and follow-up is assured. We're also very knowledgeable about all the options and features available to you. All that means you come out ahead. How much can I afford?That's a question we get very often. We suggest you start by doing some general calculations with our easy-to-use online calculators. Then call us and we'll sit down with you to determine with much greater detail what you can and should be aiming for in a property. What's a pre-qualification? A pre-qualification is a certificate that proves that you're approved for a given mortgage amount. That means that when it comes down to making an offer, you might be able to edge out a competing buyer who still needs approval.
