Is simply finding a private lending solution the answer?
More and more Canadians have sought mortgages from alternative lenders for various reasons. According to Statistics Canada, the value of non-bank mortgages increased more than 10 fold between 2007 and 2018 — growing to $86.7 billion in 2018 from $8.5 billion in 2007.
Private lenders, including mortgage investment corporations (MICs) and other private lenders, are not subject to the same rules as financial institutions or mortgage finance corporations.
And as a result, MICs have also seen double-digit growth annually on average for the past 10 years. Statistics Canada says the total financial assets of MICs reached $32.3 billion in 2020, up from $11.4 billion in 2008.
Reasons to use Private Lenders are many.
When a borrower needed money desperately, his circumstances were typical for needing a private lending solution (low income, low credit score, bills to pay, and a collections agency after him). The borrower seems to have relied heavily upon the lender to treat him fairly.
Private Lenders funding your mortgage have a lending fee, legal fees, interest rates, and sometimes even application fees. Some lenders want to get the most out of their investment, just like everybody would do investing in high-risk ventures.
