Mortgage decisions are easy to rush and hard to undo.

Buying a home involves financing decisions that can quietly limit flexibility or cost you later, often before you realize what’s happening.

Where buyers get caught off guard

Many buyers assume that once they’re “approved,” the hard part is over.

In reality, some of the most costly mortgage issues don’t come from bad decisions, they come from decisions made without full context.

Things like releasing financing conditions too early, choosing mortgage structures that reduce flexibility later, misunderstanding how self-employed income is assessed, or focusing on the interest rate without understanding the trade-offs.

The Mortgage Readiness Check is a short, educational walkthrough designed to highlight areas that are commonly misunderstood and explain why they matter, so you’re better informed before you commit.

The woman has long brown hair and is holding a mug, the man has short black hair and glasses, and the young boy in a red shirt is reaching up towards the man. The room has a beige couch, a white table with toys, and a black storage bin on the hardwood floor.

What a mortgage broker actually does

A mortgage broker acts as an intermediary between you and multiple lenders, helping compare options and guide you through the mortgage process. Rather than offering products from a single bank, brokers access multiple lenders and help explain requirements, trade-offs, and mortgage structures.

In most cases, this support is provided without an additional fee. They help you:

  • Navigate lender requirements

  • Structure and package your application effectively

  • Understand trade-offs between mortgage options

  • Move forward with clarity and informed decisions
