Kootenay Mortgages: 101 – A Free Live Webinar (Now Available to Watch)

Are you thinking about buying a home in the Kootenays—or somewhere with a similar rural lifestyle? Whether you’re just starting out or feeling overwhelmed by the mortgage process, our recent webinar helped demystify it all and offered a clear path forward.

At StellerVista Credit Union, we understand that life out here looks different—and so does getting a mortgage. From city properties and self-built cabins to non-traditional income and off-grid living, we know the realities because we live them too. Our local lending experts don’t just check boxes—they blaze trails, and they’ve helped thousands of people bank like they live here.

In this session, Yetunde, our lead Lending Guide, walked through the key things every rural and Kootenay homebuyer needs to know. Kimberli followed with a live Q&A, answering everything from foundational basics to more complex lending questions. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, planning a move, or just curious about how it all works, this session was packed with honest insights and practical advice tailored to our communities.
