On today’s show we talk with mortgage agents Michael Smele and Bev Gay about whether it's possible to get a mortgage to buy a house after, or even during, a personal bankruptcy or consumer proposal. They each give their opinion about who can qualify for a mortgage and what options are available to individuals with poor credit. The biggest take-away from our conversation is that when considering buying a house, saving up the biggest down payment possible will not only reduce your monthly payments, but it could also mean that CMHC insurnace fees will not be included in those monthly payments.
