Whether you’re helping a client purchase a home in Calgary or refinance in Edmonton, understanding the property and borrower behind the application can help you provide better advice and a smoother experience.
That’s why having access to local property intelligence matters. Before submitting a deal, it’s important to understand as much as possible about the property and its history.
With PurView, Alberta mortgage brokers can access valuable information including:
- Ownership details
- Sales history
- Estimated property values
- Assessment information
- Comparable sales
- Neighbourhood trends
- Structural property details
- Title information*
- Registered mortgages*
*Available with a full Alberta Title Search
Having this information available early in the process can help validate key details, uncover potential issues, and support more informed conversations with clients.
For brokers who require a deeper level of due diligence, a British Columbia Title Search can be purchased as an add-on to a PurView Property Report.
What is an Alberta Title Search?
A Title Search is an official record of property ownership that provides additional insight into the legal interests registered against a property’s title.
Reviewing title information early in the process can help reduce surprises, support smoother transactions, and provide greater confidence for both brokers and their clients.
Clients rely on mortgage brokers to help them navigate important financial decisions. Taking the time to verify ownership information, review a property’s history, and identify potential red flags demonstrates your commitment to protecting their interests. It can also help reduce unexpected surprises later in the process and provide greater confidence for everyone involved in the transaction.
Local expertise starts with local insights
Alberta brokers understand the communities they serve. Having access to accurate property and title information allows you to combine that local expertise with the data needed to make informed decisions and deliver exceptional service.
Property intelligence can also create opportunities long after a deal has closed. Changes in estimated property value, growing equity positions, and upcoming renewal opportunities can all serve as reasons to reconnect with past clients. These conversations allow brokers to stay top of mind, strengthen relationships, and continue providing value long after the initial transaction.
