Payment Shock Concerns?

General Angela Calla 24 Jul

Are you a homeowner in BC worried about payment shock at renewal? You are not alone and it’s important to look at the whole financial picture.

Click on the image below to watch Angela Calla break down for Global News the key strategies to manage your mortgage.

1. Adjust amortization – extending your amortization out to the maximum 30 years could significantly reduce your monthly payments.  You don’t have to renew at the same amortization schedule that was set at your previous term.

2. Consolidate outside debt – rolling in high-interest debts such as personal lines of credit, credit cards and car loans can free up monthly cash flow by having one lower payment.

3. The right payment strategy, terms and rate choice – selecting the right payment options for your lifestyle can help pay off your mortgage faster.

While we briefly touch on this in the clip, the best advice is unique to your financial goals.
