When you have your mortgage approval, you will be sent the legal agreement to read. It is imperative that you read it over and are comfortable with it. This also gives you an opportunity to run it by the lawyer if you have any questions or concerns.
Beacon Law has created the agreements and are available for a consultation. Visit the Beacon Law website to check them out. Contact Del Elgersma (elgersma@beaconlaw.ca).
