Whether you’re helping a client purchase a home in Vancouver or refinancing their mortgage in Kelowna, 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, BC mortgage brokers can access PurView Property Reports to gain valuable information including:
- Ownership details
- Title checks
- Sales history
- Estimated property values
- Assessment information
- Comparable property data
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 a British Columbia Title Search?
A Title Search is an official report containing title data from the Land Title and Survey Authority (LTSA) of British Columbia. It provides additional insight into the legal interests registered against a property’s title and can help you gain a more complete understanding of a property’s history.
A Title Search may include information such as:
- Ownership information
- Registered mortgages
- Liens and encumbrances
- Title details and legal descriptions
- Other interests registered on title
Local expertise starts with local insights
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.
