Former Bank Director (Mortgage Compliance & Principal Broker)

I enjoy family & home life: growing food, gardening, reading, home renovations, cottage time up north in summers as well as travelling and spending time with my best friend (my wife Irene).
Every day includes espresso and great food made with the most important ingredient…
How my story started...looking after family.
When my mother-in-law was 91 she was still driving, and living in her own home when she suffered a stroke. We insisted she move in with us and learned very quickly how challenging it can be to look after the needs of the elderly, in the dignified manner they deserve, and still keep the wheels of life moving.
At that time I was a Director of Mortgages at one of the 'Big Banks' and quite frankly unhealthy, overworked and most definitely under-appreciated. l left that job. Then my wife and I set out to figuring out how to care for my mother-in-law (and ourselves) and arrange for help to look after her properly.
We had visited care homes in the past and were appalled. Not only were they expensive ($5000-7000/mo.), but sometimes the elderly would only see another human being a few brief times a day. I believe one can literally die of loneliness there. We weren't going to do that to her. We chose the more challenging path and it was worth the effort.
It's a statistical fact that seniors that live in their own home near or with family, friends and familiar places live longer, healthier and happier lives. They deserve that.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Reverse Mortgage?
Reverse Mortgages allow Canadian homeowners to convert a portion of their home's value into tax-free cash, with no regular mortgage payments until they move or sell or the last homeowner passes away.
Unlike regular mortgages or even Home Equity Lines of Credit where you must normally qualify on a higher income and credit threshold, with reverse mortgages qualifying is more straightforward, making it a more accessible option for older homeowners. Generally, you need to show that you can keep up with property taxes, condo fees and home insurance.
Are there any costs for a reverse mortgage?
The expenses associated with a reverse mortgage depend on its type. These may involve lender fees, charges for independent legal advice, and the cost of a home appraisal.
We do not charge fees. The brokerage is paid by the lender just like any other commissioned salesperson. The benefit of using our brokerage is that we help you choose the best lender and the right product from the numerous products available in Canada today.
What are the interest rates for a Reverse Mortgage in Canada?
Rates vary based on the product you choose and your qualifying lender. For example, if you want more money upfront the rate might be different than if you want money spread out each month over time.
During the approval process a Mortgage Specialist will fully explain interest rates, fees ensuring transparency & no hidden costs. For a quick overview, fill in your contact information and you can normally be provided with a quote within 24 hours.
How old do I have to be for a Reverse Mortgage in Canada?
To qualify for a reverse mortgage in Canada, factors considered include your age, being a Canadian homeowner, the location and type of home, the appraised value, the home's condition, and the amount of home equity.

When and how do I repay my Reverse Mortgage?

Repayment, including the borrowed amount & accrued interest, can be done at any time, potentially incurring a prepayment charge. Typically, customers use proceeds from selling their homes to settle the reverse mortgage.
