Calgary Mortgage Information Site HomeMortgagesCalgary.ca Launched

Alberta, Canada - January 29, 2009 - Calgary residents now have another real estate resource and financial tool to use when looking for a home mortgage in Calgary with the launch of HomeMortgagesCalgary.ca.

The new site, launched by First Foundation Residential Mortgages, is the latest addition to the company's web portfolio.

"We launched the dedicated Calgary mortgage information site to better serve our home mortgage customers in Calgary," said Gordon McCallum, First Foundation President. "Our approach is to provide solid home mortgage and real estate information specific to the Calgary real estate market."

The site officially launched for public viewing on January 28. The site has a regular blog, in depth articles on home mortgages and related topics, up to date mortgage rates as well as a simple mortgage calculator. Home buyers are also able to fill out an online mortgage application for requesting a pre-approval, purchase, refinance, renewal or second mortgage.

"With all of the turmoil in the mortgage market, it is comforting to have a solid source of information and experienced mortgage experts to help guide home buyers through the mortgage process," said McCallum.

"Our headquarters is in Alberta, we really have a solid handle on what's happening in the Alberta real estate market. We have the experience to guide Calgary residents through the mortgage approval process no matter whether they're first-time home buyers or real estate investors."
McCallum added that despite the downturn in the economy elsewhere, the Calgary housing market has remained comparatively healthy. Sales are down and inventory is up, creating a positive situation for Calgary real estate buyers.
