will a bank finance a house with only wood heat.

My house is presently on the market in BC. My home only has a wood stove as the source of heat. My agent says that the banks will not finance the purchase of my house because of this. Is this true or not?

Cheers
Adam

Not only that, how about trying to get insurance.
