Mortgage Renewal
Homeowners should never accept the first rate offer from their existing lender. Without any negotiation, simply signing up for the market rate on a renewal is unnecessarily costing the homeowner a lot of money on their mortgage.
Generally, it is a good idea to start shopping for a new term between four and six months before your current mortgage term expires. Many lenders send out your renewal letter very close to the time that your term expires and this does not give you ample time to arrange for a mortgage term through a different lender. This means that you need to be tracking your own mortgage term timeframe and know when it is time to start shopping for a good mortgage renewal rate.
Before you ever hear from your lender about renewing your mortgage term, have a licensed mortgage professional shop around for you, you will be amazed at what they can accomplish on your behalf!
Your mortgage is one of your biggest expenses. For this reason, it is imperative to find the best interest rates and mortgage terms you possibly can. By shopping around at renewal time you can save substantial amounts of money over the life of your mortgage loan. Don’t be one of the 60% who just simply sign their renewal letter and send it back. Use the services of a licensed Attakora Enterprise mortgage professional to ensure the lenders compete for your business.
Mortgage Refinance
Canadians today face many reasons to refinance their mortgage. For example, you may have been working at improving your credit score and now qualify for a new mortgage with a better discount, or you may want to stabilize your payments by changing from a variable rate mortgage to a fixed-rate.
Refinancing is also a good option to pull out equity for consolidating debt, home improvements, investments, college expenses, and more.
Debt Consolidation
With the significant appreciation in housing prices over the past decade, many Canadians are taking advantage of low interest rates and lender refinance programs.
Although debt consolidation is not a suitable option for everyone, you may want to carefully consider whether refinancing your home to pay off credit card debt, loans or line of credit would make sense in your circumstances. You may be surprised by the amount of money you can save.
Benefits include:
- a single monthly payment rather than multiple payments
- lower interest rates
- money left over to invest
