There are few Canadians who don't dream of owning a home - and who don't dream of owning a home mortgage-free the moment they do. Irene Strong leaped at the chance to buy her first home a few months after graduating from university, even selling her car to be able to make payments. With her husband, she went on to buy three more condos and a house in the hottest real estate market in Canada, using nothing but average incomes and know-how. Along the way, she became a mortgage broker, inspired to help her clients access similar opportunities. Irene believes that mortgages are the single most powerful wealth-building tool available to Canadians, and Own Your Piece of the Earth is her way of putting that tool in your hands. She provides the insider perspective you need to qualify for a mortgage, find the best products for your situation to save interest over the long term - and most importantly, build your wealth.
