Are you thinking about purchasing a home? Whether you are purchasing your first home or wanting to make a move to another home, you will need to do 4 key things to Get Mortgage Ready:

1) Assess your financial situation. Take a look at the amount of income you have coming in each month compared to the total expenses you have to pay out on a monthly basis;

2) Collect financial documentation to support your mortgage application. You will have to provide written verification of your income, assets, liabilities, and credit history during the application process;

3) Set goals with respect to the type of mortgage you can afford. Make sure you account for all of your monthly expenses when determining your mortgage plan. Lenders will only look at certain things when qualifying you, but there are many day to day expenses we all have that should be factored into your plan too. Not sure about this step? Ask about my Real Debt to Service Ratio Formula (RDSR), a proprietary formula I created to take you through this process; Real Debt to Service Ratio

4) Commit to a realistic financial plan that includes making mortgage payments and maintaining your desired lifestyle. It’s one thing to think you can afford your mortgage payments, but it’s quite another to know you’ve done your homework to make sure you are taking on a mortgage that you can afford. In some cases buying your dream home means making some small sacrifices to make it happen. If you plan properly you will prevent unnecessary financial stress down the road. If you commit to your plan you will better protect the lifestyle you want for your family.

“My goal is to work with you to make your dream of owning a home a ‘manageable’ reality”.

Here is a tip from our recent round table, we asked...

“What’s the best business advice you’ve received that actually changed how you operate?”
#5. "Balance working ON business rather than IN the business."
When new entrepreneurs try to cover all aspects of the business themselves, they may become their company’s best employee; but who’s running things and focusing on growth?

An entrepreneur’s job is executive in nature. Yet, as anyone who has tried to launch a business knows, the line between working on the business and working in the business is blurry and hard to keep top of mind. Wearing every hat by doing all of the tasks that must happen in the business can bite into the time an entrepreneur has available to work on the bigger picture. Consequently, missed growth opportunities can have a devastating effect.

The London Valley Consistory Club is happy to loan out mobility equipment and health care items, free of charge, for as long as they are needed. We have literally thousands of pieces of equipment out for loan, worth many thousands of dollars. We only ask that it be returned when it is no longer needed.
Unfortunately there is a small group of people who want to abuse our program, who seem to think this is a quick way to rip us off and make a buck by selling our equipment. We know this is not the case for most of our borrowers.
We are now going to ask everyone to show us a piece of identification, to confirm who is borrowing our equipment. If you are borrowing equipment for someone else you are still certainly welcome to do so, but we will ask you for ID too.
Hopefully this will discourage any unscrupulous people from borrowing our equipment. It is unfortunate that the actions of a few (fill in the pejorative of your choice) have made this necessary. Thank you for your understanding and support.
