Calling Mortgage Agent 2.25%...Getting help finding the right mortgage for you...

When it comes to buying a new home there is a lot more to the process than simply deciding to buy a home and going out and purchasing one. The purchasing of a home is one of the biggest financial decisions and commitments that a person can make. There are many options out there in regards to mortgage providers, mortgage rates, type of mortgage, and on and on. Sometimes the information and terms involved can be overwhelming and/or confusing for some. However, there is help out there. Help in the form of a mortgage agent.

When it comes to investing your money in stocks, bonds, GICs, etc. would you simply trust yourself to make all of your investment decisions? Almost all of you would say no.

Or would you simply throw money into an investment without any research? Again, “no” would be the answer.

So than why do people make mortgage decisions without even consulting another party? Making one of the biggest decisions of ones life without taking the time to really figure out the best options? It doesn’t make sense does it, does it?

Well the ironic thing is that most people will spend many hours and every possible available resource including the internet, business magazines, business people, stock brokers, etc. to get any kind of good information or great edge to be able to make the smartest investment possible. So when it comes to choosing a mortgage, and considering what is mentioned above, the least one should do is talk to someone and do their homework in regards to mortgages. And a mortgage agent is the right person to contact for all of ones mortgage needs.

If scanning the internet for the best mortgage deals out there does not strike you as a good use of your time. Or if you are the type of person who simply prefers to trust others to cover these sorts of tasks for you; than when it comes to your mortgage you should seek the help of one of a local mortgage agent. Mortgage agents or mortgage brokers as they are often referred to are mortgage professionals and experts ready to help you find the right mortgage for you.

This could be the best decision you make when it comes to your mortgage. And in turn the mortgage choice you make can have a very large financial impact over the span of your lifetime.

As we all know many Canadians have help when it comes to sorting through their investment choices and decisions in the form of investment advisors. The reason people use advisors is because they recognize that when it comes to investing their money that often there are people out there who might know more than they do and that this might help them when it comes to making decisions.

And more and more Canadians are starting to realize that mortgage agents…aka mortgage brokers…can help them to make the best mortgage decisions. This is something that Americans have realized for quite some while, with more than seventy percent of mortgages for properties being arranged by mortgage agents.

Re: Time to get rich in real estate? - [quote="OmnivoreInk":397sdq49]Another thing I'd do if I had a million bucks...or more... would be to start buying up distressed real estate.

I would never want an adjustable mortgage - even before these latest problems, the financial system is unpredictable. Things can change A LOT in 30 years - look what happened in 4 or 5 years. Chris

How Can I Make Money Out of This Need? - I came across an interesting piece of news while surfing the web today. A site called Mortgage Loan Place had this paragrpah: If you bought your home after Sept. 1, 1983 with a FHA loan, chances are you had to purchase mortgage insurance. The FHA was supposed to refund that insurance back to you if you made all of your payments and have paid off your mortgage. The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) says that approximately 30 percent of those refunds never get claimed. $450 million waiting to be claimed And there is a search box there where you input a last name, and a list of all the people with that last name who are owed money by the FHA comes up. Most of those people seem to be owed only a couple of hundred dollars, but some are owed over a thousand dollars. And the records cover everybody from 1983 onward... So I'm wondering... is there any point in contacting these people (their addresses are given), telling them that they've forgotten to claim this refund? The thing is... that would be the good samaritan thing to do... but I'm wondering if there's any way to monetize the service. All I can do is tell the people they're due a refund - they just have to apply for it, so it's not like I'd actually be providing any kind of service, except one of information dissemination. Anyone have any thoughts?
Re: Meltdown in the Financial Markets - This is all just a big mess. And I hope that the CEOs of every single mortgage lender and bank that has been taken over, does [i:mioxwjfq]not [/i:mioxwjfq]get to take a Golden Parachute with them. If t hey must be paid, let them be paid in now worthless stock. See how they like it! As for people with mortgages... don't ever stop paying your mortgage, no matter what anybody tells you! Some people who are late on one payment and need help, have some bright bulb telling them, "Well, we can't help you until you're 90 days late, so stop making your mortgage payments for 90 days, then call us back." Except after 90 days, the home goes into foreclosure, and the amount of money it'll take to get it out of foreclosure is twice as much as you'd be paying otherwise. (I know this because I do some work for a loss mitigation company. (Those are people who make you pay them the equivalent of two of your monthly mortgage payments, in advance, for them to negotiate with your lender to not foreclose on your home. My own opinion is, if you can afford to give [i:mioxwjfq]them [/i:mioxwjfq] the equivalent of two of your monthly mortgage payments up front, why not just pay your mortgage with it and do the dealing with your lender yourself?)
