"Can I keep the house?" deserves a real answer, early.

Half the fights in a separation are about the home — and most settle faster once someone runs the actual numbers. We tell your client early whether keeping the house is financeable, then structure the buyout with discretion and clean paper.

The files we take off your desk

Complex files, handled properly.

🏠

Spousal buyouts to 95% LTV

The insured spousal-buyout program treats the buyout as a purchase, not a refinance — letting one spouse finance up to 95% of the home's value to pay out the other.

⚖️

Equalization payout refinance

Equity take-outs that fund equalization payments without forcing a sale — keeping kids in the home and the settlement moving.

🌉

Bridge before the final agreement

Interim private or alternative financing when funds are needed before the separation agreement is finalized — with a defined exit at settlement.

📋

Feasibility answers up front

Before positions harden, we tell your client in writing what they can actually qualify for — so negotiations run on numbers, not hopes.

🔐

Discretion as default

One point of contact, communication routed the way you direct, and no file details shared beyond who you authorize.

📈

Post-separation rebuild

For the spouse who can't qualify today: a mapped lane from alternative lending back to prime as support income seasons and credit recovers.

Partner FAQ

Questions partners actually ask.

How does the 95% spousal buyout actually work?+

Insurers treat a matrimonial-home buyout under a written separation agreement as a purchase, so the staying spouse can finance up to 95% of appraised value — enough to pay out the departing spouse's equity in most files. Both spouses must currently be on title and the agreement must document the buyout amount.

Can support income be used to qualify?+

Yes — child and spousal support count with a written agreement and evidence of receipt (typically 3–6 months, lender-dependent). We'll tell you exactly what documentation makes the income usable before it becomes a negotiation point.

Can you go through our existing client base to find missed opportunities?+

Yes — data mining an established partner's book is one of the most productive things we do together. With client consent and your privacy obligations fully respected, we review your existing files through a financing lens: the deal declined two years ago that places today, the equity position that unlocks a next move, the renewal nobody is watching. Missed files become closed deals — for you and for us — everyone involved looks like a complete professional, and the biggest winner is the client who was told it couldn't be done.

Do you pay referral fees?+

Where regulations allow and with full disclosure to the client, referral arrangements are available — though many of our partners decline them to preserve independence. Either way works, and the client is told either way.

Can you work with clients outside BC and Alberta?+

Our licences cover BC and Alberta. Files in Ontario and other provinces run through our national access desk and underwriting partners — one point of contact, same standards.
