Welcome to the Yukon Mortgage & Lifestyle Blog.

Written By Geoff Styba

Hi there, and thanks for stopping by.

This blog is a little corner of the internet where you'll find real, helpful guidance on all things mortgage-related in the Yukon and beyond. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer in Whitehorse, planning a cabin near Dawson City, or renewing your mortgage from your off-grid spot in Haines Junction, I’m glad you’re here.

I started this blog because I know that buying or refinancing a home isn’t just about numbers. It’s about your future, your lifestyle, and the place you want to build memories. And in the Yukon, we do things a little differently. The pace is slower, the winters are longer, and the dreams are just as big as the skies.

Here, I’ll be sharing:

  • Seasonal tips for homeowners in the North

  • Mortgage guidance tailored to Yukoners

  • Answers to the questions I hear most often

  • Real stories from real clients (with permission, of course)

  • A bit of Northern heart and practical advice, every step of the way

Whether you're just starting to dream about homeownership or you're knee-deep in rates and renewal letters, this space is here to support you. No pressure, no sales pitch. Just a local voice you can trust.

So go ahead, pour yourself a cup of coffee, let the dogs out, and stay awhile.

Warmly,
