When it comes to making changes to the way people perceive mortgages and wealth, we work with many of them to avoid making mistakes that could cost and impact them for the rest of their lives. When it comes to getting a mortgage, you want to make sure the people you are working with understand who you are, what your wealth goals are, and what the most appropriate mortgage is for your situation. Many think using a mortgage broker costs them money when in fact, in most instances, it costs nothing with only some special situations, where paying a commission is required. When borrowers don’t work with a mortgage broker, what they end up discovering is that they have cost themselves more in the long run because they did not have someone who clearly understood their situation. That is someone with knowledge and information that could guide them to the best mortgage for their needs.

Keith Uthe Demystifying Mortgages wishes you all the best for the Holiday Season! May your time with family and friends be filled with joy, love, and happiness. We are looking forward to a new normal in 2022, full of growth and abundance for everyone!

For the second time since the beginning of the pandemic, the Bank of Canada has lowered the benchmark qualifying rate a further .15% to 4.79%. For a buyer with an annual income of $80,000 that is approximately $6,300 of additional mortgage space compared to the previous qualifying rate of 4.94% and approximately $11,000 more than the qualifying rate of 5.04% that was in place at the beginning of the pandemic.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and in an attempt to protect the economic future of Canadians, the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) announced in early June that it would be tightening its qualification rules for mortgage insurance from July 1, 2020.  Fortunately, they are two other mortgage insurers: Genworth and Canada Guarantee and neither of them are changing their qualification rules.
