Most Canadians who explore a reverse mortgage only ever see one lender's numbers. This report shows you all lenders — rates, costs, renewal structure, draw options, and a projected equity analysis based on your specific home type and area.
It's free. It's written. And it's the starting point for making a decision with the full picture in front of you.
- What you'll receive -
01
All lenders compared
Rates, costs, terms, and conditions side by side. No lender is favoured — the right one depends on your file.
02
Renewal rate structure
The question most borrowers never ask — and the one that determines long-term cost more than any other. Shown clearly for every product.
03
Draw options compared
Lump sum, monthly deposits, charge card draws. Which lenders offer which structures, and which fits your intended use.
04
Equity projection
Your opening equity after the mortgage, projected forward at a conservative 3.5% compounded annual growth rate — or the actual historical rate for your specific property type and area, if lower. Remaining equity shown at Year 5, Year 10, Year 15, Year 20.
05
Historical CAGR for your area
We pull the compounded annual growth rate for your specific property type and neighbourhood — so the projection is grounded in what your home has actually done, not a national average.
06
A clear recommendation
Which lender and product structure best fits your situation — and why. Or, where relevant, an honest explanation of why a different path may serve you better.
"If a reverse mortgage isn't right for your situation, we will say so. That's happened more than once. We'd rather tell you upfront than have you proceed with something that doesn't serve you."
