Hello. Our mortgage is coming up for renewal with CIBC in about 6 months. What I am afraid of is not being able to renew. My wife and I are both working full time. We currently make approx $112,000 between the two of us per year. When the time come up for renewal our monthly expenses (credit cards/line of credit/car leases/condo fees/heating) will be at approx $2600 per month. Our gross income per month is $9300. The mortgage amount will be for $228,000. The total outstanding credit card/line or credit debt will be at about $95K. We are able to make our payments just fine right now and the bills are coming down every month. Do you see an issue with the renewal?? Here is another wrinkle. Living outside Vancouver, our real estate is starting to stink. We paid $268,000 3 years ago and come renewal our value will probably only be about $245,000. Please let me know. Thank you.
