I'm based in Powell River, the northern end of this coast, so I don't need ferry schedules explained to me. From Gibsons to Lund, I help coast buyers and owners finance properties that big-city lenders find confusing, and I do it all by phone and e-sign.
A 15-minute call, a text thread, or email. Whatever fits your day, no office visit required.
Secure uploads and e-signatures for everything. The only in-person step is signing with a lawyer or notary near you.
One application, compared across 50+ lenders. Lender-paid, so my service costs you nothing.
Coast properties are wonderful and slightly weird on paper. The difference between an approval and a headache is usually presenting these quirks to the right lender the right way.
A lot of the coast north of Sechelt runs on wells and septic systems. Some lenders hesitate; others just want a water potability test and a septic inspection. I know which is which before we apply.
Smaller, ferry-linked markets mean fewer comparable sales, which can make appraisals conservative. I prepare files for that reality so a low comp count doesn't sink a good purchase.
Wartime houses, hand-built cabins, homes with a woodstove as primary heat. These need lenders comfortable with character, and an honest conversation about insurance first.
Cabins and getaways are financed differently than principal residences: different down payment rules, different lender appetite. I'll map the real options before you fall in love with a listing.
Contractors, trades, and business owners. I read tax returns the way lenders do.
