EQ Bank Presents –
The Reverse Mortgage Revolution
The "Reverse Mortgage Revolution" panel, presented by Equitable Bank (EQ Bank) at the 3rd Annual Ascend Mortgage Summit on January 22, 2026, is a 45-minute live session designed to demystify and supercharge reverse mortgages as a high-growth niche for Canadian brokers. As one of only two major banks offering reverse mortgages in Canada (alongside HomeEquity Bank), EQ Bank positions this segment as a "revolution" by highlighting how evolving market dynamics—like rising living costs, an aging population, and untapped home equity (averaging $300,000+ for seniors)—are turning reverse mortgages into a $5B+ annual opportunity for brokers.
The panel features EQ Bank's senior lending experts alongside a live on-stage discussion with A Better Way Mortgage Group's (ABW) top-performing reverse mortgage brokers, whose identities will be revealed closer to the event (expect 3–4 high-volume producers who've closed 50+ deals each in 2025). This isn't a dry seminar; it's a fast-paced, broker-to-broker breakdown packed with actionable tactics, real-file case studies, and EQ Bank's latest product updates to help attendees explode their 2026 pipelines.
