How Mortgage Brokers & Mortgage Providers Can Help Their Clients with Debt & Credit
As a mortgage broker it can be difficult to help a client who is struggling with debt problems or bad credit. Sometimes a client needs to improve their situation before a mortgage professional is able to help them.
There is no way to fix bad credit fast, so credit counselling is a great way to help clients who:
- Need to pay off debt before considering additional borrowing options
- Are living pay cheque to pay cheque and can’t afford to buy or re-finance
- Need to develop a realistic budget and position themselves to get into the market
- Depend on credit to pay for their daily living expenses
- Need to improve their credit rating and get their payments back on track
