Today I'm thrilled to host Dr. Kyle Fortinsky, an early to mid-career gastroenterologist in Ontario.

Renewing a mortgage is more than just re-signing with your existing lender. Today I sit down with Elan Weintraub to discuss everything related to mortgages and renewals. Treat it like a financial checkpoint that aligns with your career, family plans, and cash flow, not just a headline rate. 

We dig into the real levers you control, and uncover key questions you should ask:

Why is a 30 year amortization often a good idea?

Considerations for paying down the mortgage faster

Why every 4% rate isn't the same (interest can compound too)

What do I need to know about adjustable vs variable rate mortgages?

What are the range of prepayment options?

Are tax strategies real or overhyped?

What are the pros and cons of mortgage laddering?

If you’ve got a renewal coming up or want to future-proof your financing, this is a concise masterclass on what actually moves the needle. 

If this helped you, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a colleague who’s staring at a renewal letter right now.

There are 2 questions I have become truly fascinated with and aim to answer in this episode:

- why do some people truly enjoy their work, while others don't?

- how do we go about finding more joy at work?

I've spent a lot of time reading around this topic and picking the brains of my fellow colleagues. Today I share what I've learned and the things I'm working on.

There are likely several nuggets you can take away and incorporate into your work.
