Welcome to our latest episode of Make Money Count from Cannect Home Financing, where we unravel eye-opening insights from a 2006 report by the Bank of Canada. This report sheds light on compelling reasons why Canadians should turn to mortgage brokers for their housing finance needs. Prepare to be surprised as we explore how loyalty may not always be rewarded when dealing with traditional banks and why having a mortgage broker in your corner can make a significant difference.
The Bank of Canada’s Revelation:
In 2006, the Bank of Canada produced a report that serves as a valuable resource for understanding the dynamics of mortgage lending in Canada. Our latest episode delves into the key findings of this report, revealing surprising facts that challenge common perceptions about mortgage financing. One standout revelation is the discriminatory practices based on loyalty that some traditional banks engage in—a compelling reason to consider alternative options like mortgage brokers.
Discrimination Based on Loyalty:
Did you know that some banks discriminate based on loyalty? The episode explores this startling reality, highlighting instances where loyalty to a specific financial institution might not necessarily result in the best mortgage terms. Tune in to discover more about these practices and gain a deeper understanding of how loyalty might impact your mortgage journey.
The Role of Mortgage Brokers:
At Cannect, we believe in demystifying the role of mortgage brokers. Contrary to misconceptions, mortgage brokers are not just third-party entities tacked onto your transaction. One of the key takeaways from the Bank of Canada’s report is that mortgage brokers play a crucial role in providing unbiased advice and ensuring that borrowers secure the best possible mortgage tailored to their goals and needs.
Dispelling Myths about Commissions:
One common misconception about mortgage brokers is that their commissions come directly from the borrower’s rate savings. In reality, mortgage brokers are compensated by the lender of your mortgage, not by you. This means that the unbiased advice and support you receive from our agents come free of charge. Furthermore, if a deal doesn’t proceed, you owe us nothing. Our commitment is solely to your best interests.
Your Ally in Mortgage Renegotiation:
Ultimately, the multitude of benefits associated with using a mortgage broker can be distilled to having a dedicated ally when it’s time to renegotiate your mortgage. Our team at Cannect is here to ensure that you have the support and guidance needed to navigate the complexities of mortgage renegotiation successfully.
