As a realtor, you will shine above the rest if you know the important conversation points on mortgages beyond mortgages 101. In this episode of mortgages 102, I speak to the Dream Maker team in Toronto about why alternative lenders can make more sense than prime lenders for many self-employed clients who have money tied up in investments. There are also alternative lenders with 40-year amortizations and no stress test which boosts affordability by $200,000-$400,000. With the recent appreciation of home value, there is a lot of home equity that can be tapped into with refinancing to pay off debt or put some a new down payment for an investment property.
