When you see the notification "Your client's mortgage has matured", it means the client's mortgage has reached the end of its term.

To continue monitoring their mortgage - whether they've renewed with their existing lender or moved to a new one - we strongly recommend updating their mortgage details in Ownwell. This ensures you can continue providing them with valuable insights through the Ownwell report.

Resolution

  1. Obtain the New Mortgage Details: Ideally, get this information from the client’s new mortgage agreement or a similar document.

  2. Update the Mortgage Information in Ownwell: Navigate to the "Original Mortgage" tab in Ownwell and update the following fields with the new details:

    • Closing Date

    • Term Start Date (or Interest Adjustment Date): This, along with the Term field, determines the new maturity date.

    • Mortgage Amount: The total amount of the new mortgage.

    • Mortgage Property Value: This is the property value used by the lender to determine the mortgage terms - an estimate is fine.

      Note: This value is used for setting up the Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio at the time of the mortgage. It does not affect the current estimated property value but helps track changes in LTV over time.

    • Rate

    • Rate Type

    • Payment Frequency

    • Amortization Period

    • Term: The length of the new mortgage term.

By keeping these details up-to-date, you’ll ensure the most accurate tracking and insights for your clients.
