Staying Informed: Real Estate, Mortgages, during COVID-19
In these unprecedented and uncertain times, we know many of our clients, family and friends are all wondering how they will get by.
We invited Katherine McKenzie of Hillcrest & Co. and Hillcrest Mortgages to chat with us.
Listen in as Brett asks the following questions to get a better understanding of all these different scenarios:
- Probably the pressing question – how does a mortgage deferral work? What about income interruption
- Things to prepare as isolation and work stoppage continue
- Government assistance – benefits, deferral of utilities, property taxes
- What else can an individual do to get through these times?
- It would be great to talk about income interruption during a real estate transaction.
Here are some of the links and resources shared by Katherine
