The Truth About Mortgages: How to Make the Most of Your Borrowing Power

Whether you are a first-time homeowner or in the market for a new house or condo, negotiating a mortgage is one of the biggest challenges you face. In The Truth About Mortgages, two of Canada’s leading experts on mortgages and personal loans discuss what type of mortgage is right for you, what your “comfort zone” is in terms of borrowing, and then offer the most up-to-date insider information to guide you through the maze of options available in Canada today. Armed with this handbook, you’ll enter into the process of taking on a mortgage with the confidence you need to get the best deal.

Illustrated with three real-life case studies: a young woman who rents an apartment and dreams of buying a condo, a couple in their early 30s with three young children who recently moved to a larger home in the suburbs, and an older couple with grown children who want to move out of their townhouse and plan for retirement. Includes a glossary of terms and a website resource listing.
