Are you thinking of going to apply for a mortgage or a loan? The banks have tightened up their policy in the last while, due to the ecomomy and some of the lessons learned in the sub-prime lending market.
The five C’s that the lender is looking for are:

Character…..Yours. Are you of strong moral character and are you deemed to be a good risk.
Collateral……Is the house you are purchasing worth the money you are asking for?
Capitol……..How much money are you personally willing to invest in the purchase, the down payment.
Credit………What is your credit score? Does your credit history indicate you will pay back the loan?
Capacity…..Do you have the capacity to pay back the loan? so things like steady job, debt ratio, are considered. Continue reading »

Here is some information that you may find useful if you are a recent newcomer to Canada or are thinking about coming to Canada.

In order to get a mortgage in Canada with a 5% down payment, you must have received your Permanent Resident Status, have been in Canada for at least one year and you must have an established record of credit and savings.

If you are a new arrival and do not have Permanent Resident Status, you will need 10% down payment to purchase a property and a source of regular income that can be proven.

If you have a down payment of 25% to 35%, the requirements are less strict and each individual will be assessed individually.

If you are considering a move to Canada, please obtain letters of reference from the bank you deal with in your country. This letter should be dated within 30 days and will greatly speed up the lending process in Canada.

1. Determine how much you can afford. Talk to a mortgage broker or your own banker, but get pre-approved for an amount you can afford.

2. Team up with a real estate agent. You are looking for someone who is a combination of personal adviser, consultant and negotiator. You want someone who will show you homes that match your criteria and guide you through the buying process. Call Frankie Gillespie at 476-2155 Continue reading »

All the predictions, if the economists and financial folks can be believed, are that 2009 will be a slow year in real estate. This information will translate into a “buy” signal for many, that is, they will interpret that as a “buyers market”. This does not mean it is a bad time to sell, it just means you have to be more aggressive, more in tune with the market you are in, and it is important to have the right “team” to effectively sell your house.

Secondly, because of the economic downturn globally, mortgage rates have dropped. Prime will be at 3.5% effective January 1st. 2009. Mortgage rates for a 5 year term are at less than 5%. Buyers will be getting locked in with a good rate early in 2009 and proceed to buy their dream home, will yours be on the market? Continue reading »
