Any advice on what to look for when shopping around for home equity loans?

Are there referral commissions?

I have a couple of individuals looking for a home equity loan … I told them I’d look into it for them. I’d like to find a quality vendor, but if referrals commissions are paid out, I’d like to negotiate for that too.

How do I figure out what is a “great deal”?

PS. I’ll happily take general replies but this would be specific to Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

Can you answer E S’s question about Equity?:

I hear too often that if my home has equity then thats great when it comes time to sell. The way I see it is that If I own a home free and clear then selling the home will allow me to keep all the money. If I still owe 20000 on my home and it has equity of 400k If I sell it for 400k then I simply pay off the balance of my mortgage (20k). Am I missing something here?

Private Equity Investment

Can you answer IQ’s question about Equity?:

I co-own a house with one other person (not a spouse). I want to sell the house and move away, but she doesn’t. Legally I can’t force her to sell, but I’ve heard I can sell my portion of the equity to someone else so they will become part owner instead. Can this be done? What sorts of people/organizations would make such an investment? How big a discount would I have to give the buyer off of the equity?
