It’s Time for Your Annual Mortgage Review
Rita Cousins Senior Mortgage Advisor • May 13, 2020
There are many reasons to use a mortgage broker but one key reason is having peace of mind knowing our services don’t end after your deal is closed. Access to your broker for trusted advice lasts beyond the duration of your mortgage term.
There is no reason to wait until your mortgage renewal date to consult your broker.
Take advantage of an Annual Mortgage Review to assess your options and plan your next steps.
Here are a few reasons why:
Discuss your financial situation
and home ownership goals to
make sure you are on track.
You can make changes to your
mortgage (payment frequency
and payment amount) if they
will better help you achieve your
home ownership goals.
Consolidate your high interest
debts by rolling them into your
mortgage and using your savings
to increase your cash flow or put
towards another need.

If you’re selling, pricing for today’s reality — not last year’s memory — is key. After seven months of price declines, the market is recalibrating — not crashing. With realistic pricing and a clear plan, opportunities are still out there.
