Waterloo Mortgage FAQ

Have questions about Waterloo home financing? Text Amit anytime.

Why use an independent mortgage agent in Waterloo instead of a bank branch?

A bank representative can only sell you their branch's proprietary rates. Amit compares 40+ lenders across Canada (TD, Scotiabank, First National, MCAP, and regional credit unions) to find the lowest rate and friendliest prepayment terms with zero agent fees on standard residential mortgages.

How do tech stock options (RSUs) and bonuses factor into mortgage qualification?

Many Waterloo buyers work in tech (Google Waterloo, OpenText, startups) with compensation structures including RSUs and performance bonuses. While some traditional banks discount these earnings, Amit works with specific institutional lenders who recognize a 2-year average of restricted stock and bonuses to maximize your borrowing power.

Can I switch lenders at renewal in Waterloo without re-qualifying?

Yes. Under the new Canadian OSFI mortgage regulations, straight switches at renewal (same balance and amortization) do not require passing the stress test again when moving to a new insured lender.

Do you finance student rental properties or duplexes in Waterloo?

Yes. Waterloo has a vibrant student rental and multi-unit market near the universities. Amit works with lenders who specialize in rental property financing, rental offset calculations, and investment purchases.
