What are mortgage arrears solutions?

For owners in Toronto and across the Greater Toronto Area, addressing missed mortgage payments with a documented plan may be considered when conventional financing does not fit the timing, property or borrower circumstances. A private lender reviews the property, registered charges, requested amount, intended use and a practical repayment route. This is not automatic approval, and available equity alone does not settle every underwriting question. An initial review can clarify the amount needed, timing, ownership and documents before a formal application proceeds.

Ontario transactions require careful review of title, property value and the obligations that would remain after closing. The lender may require an appraisal, payout statements, insurance confirmation and legal review. For tax or municipal balances, confirm the current amount directly with the relevant authority; MPAC assesses value for assessment purposes, while municipalities administer property tax accounts. FSRA regulates mortgage brokerages and agents in Ontario, and borrowers should receive clear explanations of terms and costs.

Private financing is generally a short term measure rather than a guaranteed long term solution. Terms are usually 6 to 24 months, subject to lender approval, and some files may fund in as little as a few business days when documentation and closing conditions are ready.

All mortgages are subject to lender approval and property qualification. Rates, terms, and fees vary by lender and are disclosed in writing before you sign.

Costs to expect

  • Lender charges and broker compensation where applicable should be disclosed.
  • An appraisal or other property valuation may be required at the borrower expense.
  • Ontario legal fees, title searches and registration or discharge charges may apply.
  • Interest and administration costs depend on the signed loan terms.

Documents needed

  • Government issued identification for each borrower and owner.
  • Recent mortgage statements and payout statements for registered charges.
  • Property address, tax information, insurance details and ownership records.
  • Current title information and details of liens, judgments or claims.
  • Income, asset and liability information available to support underwriting.
  • Documents explaining the financing purpose and repayment plan.

Exit strategy

Before closing, set out a practical repayment strategy based on the expected timing and available funds. Identify what must happen to qualify for a refinance or complete a sale, and allow for delays, transaction costs and changing lender requirements related to addressing missed mortgage payments with a documented plan.

Review progress well before maturity with the mortgage professional and lawyer. A refinance is not guaranteed. If the original plan becomes unsuitable, discuss alternatives early rather than waiting until a payment or maturity date is missed.

Mortgage Arrears Solutions FAQ

Who may qualify for this financing?

A lender may consider the property, equity, title, requested amount, borrower circumstances and repayment plan. Eligibility varies by transaction and lender, so neither property ownership nor a particular credit score guarantees approval. A complete review of the specific Ontario property and obligations is needed before any terms can be confirmed.

How quickly can funds be available?

Timing depends on appraisal availability, title complexity, payout statements, legal work and lender conditions. Some straightforward files may fund in as little as a few business days, but this is not assured. Begin early and do not rely on funds until the lender and closing lawyer confirm all conditions are satisfied.

What will a lender review?

Review can include property value, existing charges, ownership, title registrations, purpose and a credible repayment route. The lender may request statements, identification, income or asset information and a valuation. Requirements vary, and any tax, municipal or creditor payout should be verified with the organization that holds the account.

What costs should I budget for?

Potential costs include lender charges, broker compensation where applicable, appraisal, legal work, title searches, registration or discharge charges and interest. Exact amounts depend on the transaction and should be provided in writing. Review the net amount advanced and total repayment obligation, including fees that may be deducted or added.

Is this a long term solution?

Private mortgages are usually temporary financing, with terms usually 6 to 24 months. Plan a sale, refinance or other reliable payout before maturity. A future lender will reassess the application and property, so renewal or conventional approval is never guaranteed. Discuss alternatives well before the due date.

What documents should I prepare?

Prepare identification, property and tax details, current mortgage statements, payout figures, ownership records and information about debts or liens. Include documents that support the financing purpose and exit plan. Depending on the file, the lender may also require an appraisal, insurance details, income records or correspondence with creditors.
