"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.

Relationship protection

How we protect your client relationship.

🤝

Your client stays your client

We broker mortgages — nothing else. No investments, no insurance, no competing services. Every file comes back to you stronger.

🔍

You stay in the loop

With client consent, you see the proposed structure before it's submitted — leverage, rate, term, and exit — at whatever level of detail you choose.

📋

Documentation done properly

Files built to be defensible — complete, consistent, and explainable to a lender, CRA, or a court if it ever comes to that.

Process

What a referral looks like.

1

Intro call (15 min)

You outline the situation — no names needed. We tell you honestly whether we can add value and what the structure could look like.

2

Client conversation

We meet your client, gather documents, and keep you copied at the level of detail you choose.

3

Structure review

Before submission you see the proposed structure and can flag legal, tax, or timing implications we should route around.

4

Funding & handback

The deal funds, you receive a closing summary for your file, and the client returns to you for everything else.

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.

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.
