Durham Region Real Estate Blog

Sometimes I think people are just too negative. Renting when they should be owning.  There are several great mortgage brokers out there who would love to see if you could qualify to purchase your own home.  How often do we just assume the worst or think it’s too embarrassing to ask?  It is my opinion that you should ask whenever you are not sure of your situation.  Those of us in the real estate business just deal in the facts.  We just want to know if you can or cannot afford to purchase a home.   If you do qualify, I’m happy to find the perfect $100,000 or $1,000,000 home for you.  Finding a great house, within a comfortable price range for my buyers is the part of the business that I like the best.   And the mortgage brokers that I know and recommend, feel the same way.  Usually  they can let you know within 10 minutes, whether or not they can help you get a mortgage.  If they can help, their next step will be finding the best rates and terms for you.  If the answer is no, you will get some free, fantastic advice how to get a Yes! answer the next time you ask.  What if the hole you’ve dug for yourself really isn’t as deep as you thought it would be.  Finances are often very misunderstood.  We all think the rich have it so easy, but actually having a secure future is something reserved for those who are best at living within their means, spending and saving wisely.

If you think you can’t afford to buy a house but haven’t checked with a good mortgage broker, send me a quick note and I’ll get you contact information for a couple of great brokers who will have your best interest at heart.
