Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Mortgage

1. Before getting a mortgage determine if you really need it, and if you do, write down exactly how much of a mortgage you need. It is important that you don't overdue it when it comes to picking a mortgage amount.

2. Call your Credit Union and see if they offer mortgages. Because you are a current customer with them, they may extend some benefits to you to get a better mortgage.

3. Call your Bank and see if they offer mortgages. Most mortgages are done through banks, and mortgage brokers because they are typically more reliable and can offer more money.

4. Compare mortgage rates from different sources and find the lowest mortgage rates among them.

5. Call the place you'd like to get a mortgage from and see if they can match the rate of their competitor. If the mortgage rate is reasonable and you have an established record with them, there's a chance they may give you a mortgage at the lower rate.
