Mortgage for Pilots

Mortgage for Pilots and Airline Staff

Mortgage for Pilots Airline Staff Penticton Kelowna BC

The Penticton Airport is home to two flight training schools that offer programs for both fixed wing and helicopter students. Kelowna boasts the Southern Interior Flight Centre’s Pilot License and Rating Programs, while in the same area is the Okanagan College Commercial Aviation program. Meanwhile, between Penticton Airport (YYF) and Kelowna International Airport (YLW) there are approximately 65 daily non-stop commercial flights with seven airlines.

The point here, is that a disproportionately large number of pilots are trained in the Okanagan Valley, and return often as established aviators. In having vast experience with the BC Southern Interior (the best place to get a mortgage in BC) pilots are looking to invest in a home in the area. Even if not one’s primary residence it makes sense to have it for those extended layovers in this neck of the province, and then leverage it on the short term rental (STR) market for when not occupied. It will also provide the ultimate retirement property for them the time comes to hang up those wings. In fact, the same is also true for airline staff who have fallen in love with the Okanagan.

Logically, the next step is to connect to a mortgage broker. You’ve landed in the right place. Let’s review.

Penticton Mortgage Rates Update - April 2022

In last month’s Penticton mortgage rates update we detailed the recent (at the time) Bank of Canada announcement regarding the Policy rate. In March they increased the rate from .25% to .5%. We predicted that the Bank would once again raise the cost of borrowing incrementally through the months ahead, with another projected this very month (April). This morning (April 13) they did just that, with a move that the Financial Post and others are calling a super-sized rate hike. Is mainstream media being dramatic? More importantly, should new buyers reconsider getting a mortgage through the remainder of the spring and summer of 2022? Let’s review.
