A mortgage is not set-and-forget. Life changes, and so do your options. A quick review now and then helps make sure your mortgage still fits where you are and where you are headed. Here are the signs it may be worth a look, and what a checkup covers.
Every approval is a photograph of one moment. Your income then, that property then, those rates then. It is a reading taken on a particular day, and that day becomes the fixed point everything else gets built on. Then life keeps moving and the photograph goes out of date. That gap is exactly what a renewal conversation is for.
Your term ends within the next year.
Income, family, or goals have shifted.
Higher-interest balances sitting elsewhere.
Your value or paydown has increased.
A renovation, purchase, or investment in mind.
We look at your rate type and term, your payments and prepayment room, your remaining amortization (the time left to pay it off), and when your mortgage comes up for renewal.
Then we look at whether the structure still fits your plans, and options such as consolidating debt, accessing equity, or adjusting payments as your goals change.
Not sure where your mortgage stands? Reach out and we will review it with you in plain language, so you know whether it still fits your plans. A licensed member of our team will follow up.
