  • Fixed Rate Mortgages

    Build Wealth Canada is a very informative Canadian podcast that touches on important financial aspects for Canadians. I’ve been a mortgage lender with BMO for over 20yrs and clients have the ability to blend and extend their fixed rate mortgages with no penalty and should they wish to refinance prior to their term maturity there are no penalties if a blended rate is exercised.

  • Tough to listen to

    I wanted to like this podcast but the repetition is overkill.

    Saying the same phrases or pieces of information more than 2x is just not fun to listen to.
