Private Mortgage

private mortgage is an alternative loan source for when the bank says no. If you are unable to qualify for a mortgage, or need access to your money sooner than the traditional wait period of two or three weeks, a private lender can help meet your needs. Keep in mind, a private lender will not lend above 75% of the appraised value of the property.

Normally, private commercial mortgages are secured by larger, well established, companies that lend money as a way of doing business. The people who run these companies have expertise in quickly determining credit worthiness, which can help you get approved sooner. We know several private commercial mortgage lenders, in the $250 Million range and can get your mortgage approved quickly.

We Can Access the Top Private Lenders in Canada

Most private lenders offer first and second mortgages. The rates on first mortgages can start as low as 5.99% and go as high as 12% depending on the risk involved including your personal credit history. Second mortgages are considered higher risk and therefore will normally start at 12% interest, going as high as 22% (depending again on risk). Not unlike CMHC, your private lender will charge a fee which, along with broker commissions, will be deducted from your loan.

Most companies that lend for private mortgages get their money from MIC’s or mortgage investment corporations. These are funds that have been established as an investment tool and are regulated by the provincial securities commissions.
