So, time to start shopping around.

Any of you fine guys/gals in the business?? Know someone who is??

I hear, as with most things, it's worth it to shop around. Any help would be appreciated.

My wife and I just bought a house and used our mortgage broker. She was quite a bit better than us going direct to the bank. We were able to get 2.25% 5 yr closed variable on 525K. Pretty cheap to borrow money right now. That is thru ATB.

Are mortgages usually on 5 year terms?

Val has been sending clients to Stephanie and she has really helped people with purchasing homes or renewing mortgages.

Just let Stephanie know Val Senio sent you.

Im a broker with Dominion lending. Five year fixed rates are 2.59% and variable at P - .65...so 2.2%.

Unbelievably cheap money right now.

Diana Lee was absolutely amazing to deal with for me. I did my entire mortgage via text message, fax and the odd phone call. Never even met her until after the deal was all done. For me, that was exactly what I like.

Feel free to give her a call or text. Let her know that Chris from Robin's Automotive sent you her way.

Thanks for the input fellas.

Sounds like we are going to be needing a builders mortgage, so I'm told variable is all that's available to start.

Let the shopping begin.

Unless of course I can borrow some of FS's dusty ol money :)

I can't take it with me so maybe we could set something up? Interest would be a little high though.....................................I'm a tight SOB.
