B-Lending Can Help When The Bank Turns You Down

10/28/2020

There’s nothing more discouraging than being declined for financing by a bank, especially when you have people counting on you at home. We’ve all been there, one minute you’ve got everything under control, next minute you’ve got a pile of overdue bills and a steep mortgage payment with no solution in sight. If you’re in this situation, don’t panic, there is a solution, it’s called B-Lending. Here’s what you need to know about the benefits of B-Lending and how it can help you climb out of a very dark hole with your pride intact.  

B-Lending 101

When you’re stressed out and you've just been declined by a bank, you might find yourself willing to try anything to fix the problem. At this point some people start making bad decisions like seeking money from a short-term lend or applying for a payday loan. These types of loans can be ruinous and most of them are designed to make things even worse. The risk, like the interest rate, is exceptionally high. 

B-Lending on the other hand, is comparatively less risky and more advantageous. It’s the perfect balance between the bank loans that you can’t get and the short-term loans that you shouldn’t get. B-Lending refers to subprime loans which are loans that you can qualify for even if you have bad credit. This is your way out, B-Lending can give you the big break that you’ve been looking for and help you take control of your life.  


Mortgage Lending Vs. Borrowing From a Bank
People living in Greater Vancouver and the Lower Mainland that need access to funds for any reason from financing renovations, a large or unexpected expense, purchasing a second property, consolidating debt, for emergency purposes, etc. can benefit from private mortgage lending.
Compared to a financier that offers private mortgage and home equity loan
s, banks are much more strict. A bank’s qualification requirements are comparatively much more rigorous and people who are already struggling financially are typically denied access to additional funding.  
Overall, there are some pretty spectacular advantages to private mortgage lending, especially for borrowers that are self-employed, have bad credit, or both. Let’s take a look at some of the most popular and advantageous finance options that mortgage lending makes possible for the people that banks have unceremoniously turned away. 


The Advantages of Home Equity Loans
When you can’t make the payments on multiple debts and the walls are closing in, a home equity loan can be your new best friend. These loans can be used to free up cash that’s tied up in the value of your home. That’s cash that you can use to dig your way out, not to mention, you’ll get a substantially better interest rate! 
For example, say you’re self-employed with an auto loan and a few credit cards. Due to a family emergency you run up the balance on your credit cards until you’re overextended, then business slows down, you’re not taking as much money in as usual and the bank is itching to take both your home and your vehicle away from you in one fell swoop. 


Now you’ve got a right financial mess with multiple payments and no money to pay them. What do you do? The smart thing to do in this situation is to apply for a home equity loan from Silver Hill Mortgage. 

A home equity loan works like this - you borrow money against the value of your property and use it to consolidate all of your outstanding debts into one neat little loan with a better interest rate. You’ll have one loan, one payment, and a lower interest rate, it’s that simple! 
​
How Second Mortgage Loans Can Save Your Skin
For folks who've got their backs pressed up against the wall and are struggling to keep up with the high payments on their mortgage and other debts, a second mortgage just might be the solution you’ve been looking for. 

A second mortgage is kept separate from your original mortgage as an independent loan. You can leverage a second mortgage to access up to 75% of the value of your home. People who are struggling to keep up with their mortgage payment and are facing the brink of foreclosure can solve all of their problems at once with a second mortgage from Silver Hill Mortgage. 

Taking out a second mortgage can help you avoid defaulting on your original mortgage and subsequently skirt the blood-curdling penalty fee. If you’re self-employed, odds are you’ve had trouble getting approved for any additional financing from a bank. They tend to be rather stingy that way. Mortgage lenders like Silver Hill Mortgage aren’t so stingy, we value your business and we work with people that are self-employed or have bad credit.

Welcome to Silver Hill Mortgage, Where Your Financial Needs Are Met
Silver Hill Mortgage Corp. provides private and institutional mortgages for distressed homeowners who have been declined by a bank. These loans can be issued for virtually any purpose, circumstance, or property type.

Private Mortgage Financing During COVID-19

Picture
With the ongoing COVID-19 crisis, many Canadians have been greatly impacted by the financial stresses it has caused. As you know, many jobs have been lost and, in some cases, businesses have been completely erased. Financial setbacks and ruin are so common and such a reality each day, and sometimes banks and financial institutions only have so much wiggle room to assist. If you try and get their help, it is a pressing uphill battle to meet their requirements. The loan qualification process through a bank is tough enough on the best of days, but with COVID-19 compounding problems, one can only imagine how much more difficult the process has become. As a result, in many cases they might not be able to help as quickly as needed.

Homeowners in the Lower Mainland presently are finding it extremely challenging trying to get mortgage financing through banks and other various institutions. Trying to refinance your existing mortgage or getting a new mortgage altogether seems almost impossible. The banks have tightened the rules and use overkill scrutiny with each loan application. Any little blemish on your credit report can spell certain rejection. Your Income amount, type of employment and time at your job will also greatly impact your chances of getting the loan. With the unemployment numbers rising, lenders are getting extremely concerned about repayment ability. As you can see, sadly the current situation is a mess for all parties involved.
Picture
There are options out there for homeowners needing help but cannot qualify for bank mortgage. Various B lenders and private sources are available. Many of these lenders are open for business and have flexible mortgage terms. They are ready, willing to engage and help with most home equity loan requests. They are easy to deal with and very receptive to connect and build a relationship with the client. These lenders use a make sense approach with each mortgage request. They are equity lenders for the most part - so they allocate more value and merit in your available home equity, unlike the banks. They place far more of their mortgage approval decision on your available equity. Income and perhaps credit will factor in on a far smaller scale, but they are necessary components to help with the lenders mortgage approval.

Here are some of the benefits in considering alternative mortgage financing, such as home equity loans funded by private mortgage firms and investors.


Easy to Qualify – So easy.  In most cases, your available property equity will dictate the terms of the loan.  If you have equity, the private lender can help. The basic requirements are a completed application form, appraisal report of the property, title inspection, credit bureau review and a comfort level with the borrower’s ability to repay.  
Flexibility – The private lender will review the application personally and can tailor the loan to the specifications for the borrower or their situation. The lender will work with the borrower to try and best satisfy the loan request.
They lend on all property types regardless of location. – They will lend on houses, condos, farms, raw land, commercial properties, recreational properties, leasehold properties, remiated marijuana grow-operations, bridge loans… just about anything.
They finance those with credit and income issues – bad credit or no credit, little to no income, a mortgage loan solution is still an option. 
They finance all loan request types; construction loans, partial interest ownership, education /medical expenses, debt consolidation, renovations, anything important to you.
Quick Fundings – They have the ability to fund loans in a short period of time without hesitation.  They can adjust the timeline to processing the mortgage loan request and ultimately getting funds.  They have the ability to control the entire loan process from start to finish,
Emergency help – they are able to act quickly in times of despair.  

If you are experiencing difficulties pursuing a home equity loan during this pandemic and need help or some direction, you should contact a mortgage broker.  The mortgage broker will review your situation, lay out the potential options and secure you the help you need.

Thinking About Buying A Rental Property? Here's What You Need To Know About Loans

8/11/2020

Picture
Thinking of buying a rental property? Congratulations on discovering the best way for smart investors to secure and grow their money. Rental properties represent an avenue to invest in a long-term asset, allowing you to generate monthly income. It has many advantages over stocks, gold, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. It is tangible and resilient against a lot of the shocks that stocks and mutual funds are vulnerable to. At the same time, however, investing in real estate is not a walk in the park.
There are potential pitfalls that first-time property investors need to be aware of if they are to make the most of their investments. And one of the most challenging areas for would-be real estate investors is financing. Getting a mortgage for a primary residence is very different from a mortgage for a rental property. Today we will dive into helping you understand the key things you need to know when applying for an investment property loan.
​
Picture
Do you qualify?
What do traditional lenders look at before they decide to approve or to decline a loan application? They look at a combination of the person's financial capacity and their money management abilities. The factors they may consider include:

  • Credit score: ​The general standard credit score to get approved for a mortgage is 640. But when applying for a rental property mortgage, it is usually higher.
  • History of late payments: In addition to good credit score and despite it, some lenders check for a history of debt repayment problems.
  • Gross Debt Service Ratio (GDS): This is the percentage of the applicant's after-tax monthly income required to cover the costs associated with owning the property. The ratio should not exceed 32%.
  • Total Debt Service Ratio (TDS): This measures the percentage of the individual's monthly income needed to cover all their monthly debt obligations. The desirable ratio is 40% or less.
  • Stress test: The person must keep up with mortgage payments even if interest rates increase in the future.
  • Other things: Other factors are the individual's income, employment records, general expenses, current debts, how much they want to borrow and the amortization period
​
Picture










​


​Financing Options

Along with conventional mortgage loans, investors have other options for financing the purchase of their second property:
​
  • Hard Money Loans: These loans are issued by private lenders. They are often used by investors who employ a short-term investment strategy, as the interest rate is slightly higher, but the applicant's credit score is not a huge factor in determining approval.
  • Private Money Lenders: These are loans made by people in the investor's personal network. It is an excellent option for people who do not qualify for a traditional mortgage.
  • Home Equity Loans: Borrowers can use the equity on an existing home to finance their investment property. With a home equity loan, you may be able to borrow up to 75% of your home's value. Your credit score is not a big factor in this case.

Picture
Types of Investment Properties
In addition to the qualification criteria listed above, the type of investment property an investor is planning to purchase is essential as it determines what their financing will look like. There are two types of investment properties:
​
  • Residential buildings: Buildings that have 1-4 living units are deemed as residential. The qualification criteria for these investment properties are slightly different from mortgage criteria for a primary residence. Furthermore, if the owner plans to live in one of the units, the property is classified as owner-occupier, which further softens the mortgage terms. If the owner will not live in the property, it is non-owner-occupier, and the loan terms are different.
  • Commercial buildings: Any building with 5 living units or more is zoned as a commercial property. Commercial properties require a commercial mortgage, and the qualification criteria for these property types are often tougher.

Down payment
Since 2010, the down payment required for investing in a rental property in Canada is 20%. For owner-occupied properties with 3-4 living units, the accepted down payment may be as low as 10%. If the home has only two units, the down-payment for owner-occupied homes goes down to 5%. But if a property is non-owner-occupied, regardless of whether it has 2 or 4 units, the down-payment is 20%. Additionally, non-owner-occupied homes have a maximum loan-to-value (LTV) ratio of 80%, versus 90%-95% for owner-occupied properties.

Amortization periods
Investors who make a down payment of less than 20% can expect an amortization period of 25 years. But if they down put 25% of the property value or more, they qualify for an amortization period of 30-35 years. This is regardless of whether the property is owner-occupied or not. More extended amortization periods mean lower monthly payments, but more interest is paid over the loan's lifetime. But a more extended amortization period is a plus for rental property owners because interest payments are tax-deductible, and it lowers the monthly carrying costs on the property.

Finally, one of the best things you can do for yourself, as a first-time rental property investor, is to find a mortgage broker who has experience with investment properties. An experienced broker will help you navigate the inroads of investment property financing and ensure you get the best rates available in the market.

Know Your Costs: A Home Equity Loan Breakdown

3/17/2020

0 Comments

 
Picture
​Home equity loans allow homeowners in Metro Vancouver and the Lower Mainland access funds for any reason, quickly and easily. In fact, it is a fast and simple way to access a large sum of cash to help with:
 
* Consolidating Your Debts
* Paying outstanding property / income taxes
* Home Renovations
* Business Capital
* Unexpected Expenses
 
A home equity loan is a loan secured against your property, behind your first mortgage. It represents an additional loan which is usually smaller than your first mortgage and based on your available equity. A home equity loan will permit you to borrow against the property’s value, less any mortgage owing on the property. The equity in your property is the difference between the current property value less the balance of your first mortgage. Of the available equity, only a certain percentage may be utilized for an equity loan. In most urban areas, you may obtain an equity loan up to potentially 75% of the value of the property. 
 
Since many home equity loans are offered by Private or a B-Type of Lender, there will be costs to the borrower for getting the loan.  Unlike the banks who typically absorb many of the mortgage setup costs for the customer, the private lender industry does not. There are far more costs associated with a home equity loan passed on to the borrower, however this also means that you can access funds quickly and easily.
Picture
The typical costs you may anticipate with your home equity loan are as follows:
 
Appraisal Fee:
This is the cost of having your home evaluated by a certified property appraiser. The lender needs to know the current market value of your home. It is the duty of the mortgage broker to order the report, and that cost is the responsibility of the borrower. Once the appraisal is ordered, the firm will reach out to the borrower and arrange for an appointment and payment.  The appraisal is usually the one up front expense to the borrower. The appraisal may take up to a week to complete or sooner, in most cases. Once complete and the payment has cleared, the finished report is released to the lender for review. An average home appraisal costs around CAD $275-$450 + tax in most urban areas like Vancouver, Surrey, Burnaby, and the tri-cities.  The fee is determined by the property type such as strata, rental, single family, high-end home…
 
Lender Fee: 
In some cases, the lender may charge a lender fee in addition to the interest on the loan. The lender fee is used to offset any administrative costs of the lender. The lender fee may be used by the lender to compensate the mortgage broker for the loan application. The lender fee may also be used to gross up the lenders yield on the loan investment. In other words, the lender may offer a very low rate to the borrower, then charge a lender fee to make up for his desired return on investment. When a lender fee is warranted, it is negotiated upfront and disclosed to the borrower. The lender fee is added, or “grossed up” onto the desired net loan amount for the borrower. The lender fee is deducted from the total gross loan at funding and submitted to the lender.
 
Mortgage Broker Fee: 
When a lender does not compensate the mortgage broker, the broker will then charge a fee for the work they put into the file. This fee represents payment for all of the time, efforts and legwork of the broker. From start to finish, the broker processes the application, hunts for the perfect lender and streamlines the entire process for the borrower, up to funding. The mortgage broker negotiates on the borrower’s behalf with the lender, coordinates the loan documents between lawyers and maintains government compliance as a licensed mortgage broker. When a broker fee is warranted, it is negotiated upfront and disclosed to the borrower.  The mortgage broker fee is added, or “grossed up” onto the desired net loan amount for the borrower. It is eventually deducted from the total gross loan at funding and submitted to the mortgage broker.
 
Lender Legal Fee:  
The borrower is also responsible for the costs associated with preparing the mortgage documents. The lender’s lawyer will prepare and legally execute the mortgage papers, at the cost of the borrower. The lawyer fees are passed on to the borrower are also deducted from the gross loan.  These fees are disclosed up front to the borrower for review along with the other loan costs. The average lender legal fee can range from CAD $750 - $2,000+, although these figures are approximate. The nature of the loan and subject property will determine the true lender legal cost.
 
Borrower Legal Fee: 
The borrower will need a legal representative to review the loan papers and give their opinion and independent legal advice about entering into the loan agreement. Therefore, the services of a lawyer or notary are required, another cost to the borrower. It is important to have a professional to protect your best interests. The average lender legal fee can range from CAD $250 - $450+, approximately.
 
Application Fee: 
There are a few private mortgage companies who will charge an application fee as one of the loan set-up costs. The application fee may cost CAD $200-$300 and is meant to offset any administrative expenses of the lender. These costs would include requesting documents from the land titles office, reviewing application details, processing and preparing approval papers.  The application fee is disclosed to the borrower up front, and is added to the net loan, such as the lender and mortgage broker fees.
 
Commitment Fee: 
Many private lenders will also ask for an upfront setup or commitment fee from the borrower.  Once the loan offer is disclosed to the borrower and they are happy with the terms, an up-front commitment fee is usually asked for from the borrower.  The lender will want to ensure the borrower is committed to moving ahead with the loan.  The commitment fee will be applied towards the preparation of loan papers by the lenders lawyer.  This amount will be credited towards the total lender legal fees, which the borrower is responsible for.  The average commitment fee can range from CAD $500 - $2,000+ approximately. The nature of the loan and subject property will determine the true lender legal cost.
 
Default Payment Fee: 
In the event the borrower misses a mortgage payment, there will be an NSF administrative penalty cost. The missed payment fee is noted in the mortgage documentation.
 
Cancellation of Home Insurance Policy Fee:
If the borrower cancels the home insurance policy on the subject property, the private lender may charge a fee to ensure the insurance is reinstated. The cancellation of home insurance fee is noted in the mortgage documentation.
 
Mortgage Discharge Fee: 
This is the small cost the borrower pays when the mortgage is paid out and discharged off of the title. This fee is paid to the Land Titles Office so they remove the loan off of your property title. In some cases, there may be a small fee charged by the lenders lawyer for processing the mortgage discharge.
 
Renewal Fee: 
Many private lenders will charge a renewal fee when the mortgage comes up for maturity.  This fee covers any administrative costs in processing the renewal. The renewal fees can range from a set fixed dollar amount or a certain percentage of the outstanding balance at the time of maturity.  The percentage range can be anywhere from .50% - 2.25% of the outstanding balance at maturity.  The renewal terms will be disclosed and note in the loan paperwork.
 
Please note that the above represents some of the fees and costs which apply to home equity loans & private mortgages. It’s important to ensure you have full disclosure and understanding of the costs associated with your loan. These are the reasons the services of an experienced mortgage broker should be used. They will walk you through the entire loan process safeguarding your best financial interests.

How To Borrow Against Your Home Equity: Things To Know

2/17/2020

0 Comments

 
How to Borrow Using Your Home Equity in Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, Delta, Langley, Victoria, Abbotsford, Kelowna.
Needing a home equity loan in Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, or elsewhere in the Lower Mainland? Renovating your home in Kelowna, but needing the funds to begin? Whether it's consolidating your debt or expanding your business, applying for a loan against your home equity can provide so many benefits. Home equity loans can be secured easily and quickly to help you with the following:
 
+ Consolidating Your Debts
+ Paying Property or Income Taxes
+ Home Renovations
+ Expanding Your Business
+ Anything You Need or is Unexpected!
 
What exactly is an equity loan, and how do I get one in Vancouver (or elsewhere in B.C.)?
An equity loan is typically a loan secured against your property, behind your first mortgage. It represents an additional loan which is smaller than your first mortgage and based on your available equity.  An equity loan will permit you to borrow against the property value, less any mortgage owing on the property. The equity in your property is the difference between the current property value, less the balance of your first mortgage. 
 
Example:
 
Property Value:           $500,000.00 

less 

1st Mortgage:               
$300,000.00
                                       
Equity:                        = $200,000.00 
 

Of the available equity, only a certain percentage may be utilized for an equity loan.  In most urban areas, you may obtain an equity loan up to 80% of the value of the property. This percentage of the value of the property is called the “loan to value – LTV” ratio. It is a number that lenders use to determine the level of risk they are taking on when lending on a secured loan.
 
Example:
 
Property Value: $500,000.00 x 80% (LTV Ratio) =        $400,000.00
 
less
 
1st Mortgage Balance:                                                         $300,000.00
 
=
 
Maximum Equity Loan Available:                                    $100,000.00
 
For existing property owners in Vancouver, Burnaby, or other cities in B.C., the equity lenders' LTV ratio will vary depending on the following factors:
Picture
Location of the Property 
As the property location becomes more rural, the LTV ratio is reduced accordingly. The more remote the property, the smaller equity loan. 
​

Picture
Property Type 
Depending on whether the property is residential, owner-occupied, rental, commercial, or recreational will also influence the LTV ratio.
​

Picture
Current Mortgage Details 
Equity lenders will request to confirm what is currently owed, to whom, and under what conditions. Equity lenders are more inclined to lend in behind an institutional 1st mortgage, as opposed to a private or non-traditional 1st mortgage.  This seems to be an industry standard and may affect your chances of getting a second mortgage.  Equity lenders simply do not like to park their loans behind other equity lenders. 
 
Provided you have the available equity on your property in B.C., the process of getting an equity loan is not too difficult.  Equity lenders have a way to manage their risk when your property is securing the loan.  Even with poor credit and low income, your chances of being approved for an equity loan are good, provided you have the equity. An equity loan is easier to qualify for than other types of loans because you are putting your property up as collateral. 
 
Typical Documents Required for An Equity Loan
 
All mortgage lenders require certain documents when processing a request for financing.  The typical documents required will include the following:
 
Completed Application Form 
This will offer the lender an overall snapshot of you and your current financial situation.  You should complete the application fully with as many details as you can offer.  The more information you can share, the better the potential terms of the equity loan.

Credit Check 
The lender will obtain your permission and access your credit bureau as part of the process. This will offer insight into your credit repayment history. Pledging your equity certainly helps, but lenders must assess the loan request with the level of risk. The lender simply wants to minimize any potential losses regarding his loan. Equity loans are easier to qualify for if you have bad credit, but a credit check is still necessary.

Income & Employment Information 
The equity lender may ask for basic employment and income information, such as tax returns, a pay stub, or a job verification letter. This demonstrates the borrower’s ability to repay the loan. The income verification process through an equity lender is far less rigorous than that of a typical bank.  The equity lender may exercise far more flexibility regarding the income information, but like the banks, they must verify that you have proof of income and the ability to repay the loan.
 
Appraisal Report
The lender will require a current appraisal of the subject property which will reflect the fair market value.  This will help the lender calculate the loan to value ratio when determining the loan details.  The appraisal report will offer the lender a detailed analysis of the property including the value, interior and exterior photos, and how it compares to similar properties.

Additional Documents & Information 
Additional paperwork required by the lender may include:
1. Copy of Home Insurance Policy – the equity lender must ensure you have adequate insurance coverage over the subject property.  They want to be certain the house or structure is insured fully in case of a disaster.
2. Copy of Current 1st mortgage Statement – the lender will need to confirm the loan amount(s) current owing and secured against your property. This again will assist the equity lender in calculating the overall loan to value ratio.

3. Contact Details of Lawyer/Notary – the borrower will need the services of a lawyer/notary who will review all loan documents and provide the borrower with independent legal advice.  Prior to entering into a loan agreement, the borrow must consult a legal representative, who will review the loan papers and give their professional opinion of the nature of the loan.

4. Void Cheque or Pre-Authorized Debit Form – the equity lender will collect either a void cheque (in some very rare cases, postdated cheques) or a pre-authorized debit form for your bank.  This will allow the equity lender to collect the monthly loan payment from the borrower on a regular basis.
 
The process of getting an equity loan whether you're in Vancouver, Burnaby, Victoria, Kelowna, Langley, or anywhere else in B.C. can be rather simple and quick. As you can see, there are certain documents which are required, however they are not scrutinized like the banks.  Equity lenders are far more flexible and take a make-sense approach towards the loan approval.  It is best to shop around and look for the best loan offer which meets your situation. Finding the best equity loan will help save you money and much more.

You might want to connect your personal credit along with your ambition of striking it rich in 2020. This is the very best time to consider the New Year resolutions you want to make about your personal credit. Here are a few ideas you might want to seriously consider to ring in the New Year:
​

1. Order a copy of your own credit report, and read it from front to back, thoroughly. 
​Have you even seen a copy of your credit report, ever?  You can obtain a free copy through any one of the two credit reporting agencies in Canada.  You may contact either Equifax.ca and/or TransUnion.ca, to request and obtain a free copy of your credit report.  The free report will detail your creditors, your credit activities, credit details for each account…. The free report unfortunately excludes the beacon score, but for a small fee, either agency will send you a credit report and your beacon score.  Once you take delivery of the report, take some time to read through it and ensure the information is correct and accurate.  The information in the report is arranged similarly by each agency, and it is more or less straight forward to understand. You will also have a guide to help interpret all components of the report.  This is a great to start the credit resolution.


2. Ensure there are no discrepancies or issues in your Credit Report.
As you read through your credit report, it is extremely important to take note of any errors, discrepancies and unusual activities/notes/dates.  You want to ensure all of the information about you and your credit is correct, accurate and current.  The next creditor to access your report will then have the most recent & correct information about you, which will help with their decision in granting you credit.  Also, you want to be certain there are no suspicious activities and your identity has not been compromised.  Identity theft is a very big problem and can claim anyone of us at any time.  It is best to be proactive and focus on protecting your credit and your identity, because if stolen and ruined, it will take years and thousands of dollars to claim back your innocence.  Contact the credit agencies directly if you notice any issues with your credit report.

 
3. Bring all of your accounts up to date.
Hit that reset button by paying all accounts that are slightly behind, in arrears or in collections, up to date.  Do whatever it takes to get the funds necessary to do this.  It is critical to eliminate any items which are showing derogatory or in collections, in your credit report.  This will kill any chances of getting any credit down the road.  Derogatory credit and collections are a black eye, and creditors will steer clear of you.  Try and bring your accounts up to being current and start your new year.  You must commit consistently on a monthly basis, make payments on time, even if the very minimum payment at least.  Further, then try and chip away at the balances each month until they are all paid in full.  Only use credit when absolutely necessary.
 
4. Set your limits and ground rules. 
It is a great idea to set the ground rules to using credit.  You might want to reflect on the types of situations where you might have foolishly used credit and regretted it.  Try and focus on how you will manage your purchases down the road. The best way to create focus is to ask yourself questions. Do I really need this? What alternatives do I have?...  It is easy to buy now and pay later, and so many get stuck in this patter.  In the end, credit runs out and all we have is a large bill staring right at us.  Some rules you may want to adopt may include:
 
  • Always budget yourself and know your limits!
  • Do not take on any payments you cannot afford!
  • Do not use credit cards / credit lines to substitute the payments you cannot make!
  • If you do not have the cash to buy, then don’t buy it!
  • Only borrow what you can afford!
  • Pay all bills on time!
  • Review your credit report a minimum of once a year.
 
Remember, your credit should be protected and treated with the highest regard. Credit is important and allows us to maintain a certain standard of life, especially with the uncertainty we can find ourselves in very quickly. Credit also offers us the ability to take advantage of potential opportunities we make come across but do not have the funds to pursue. The list can go on. As one can see, the benefits of having and maintaining credit are numerous and critical to maneuvering through this financially complex world.
 
Create rules for yourself and how you manage your credit. Have a game plan, set your limits and you will see amazing results.

Interesting Facts About Your Credit Report

11/18/2019

0 Comments

 
Picture
Most of us have applied for credit at one time or another. There are 2 main credit bureau agencies in Canada - Equifax and TransUnion. They collect and administer your personal credit information in the form of a credit report, which can be requested by your lenders, employers, and landlords.
 
Credit reports contain multiple pieces of personal and financial information, which are systematically organized and neatly presented into a report for easy review.
 
What Information Is Collected About Me?
 
Your credit bureau collects plenty of information related to you. The information related to you will include confidential details which are both personal and financial.  
 
The personal information in your credit report will include:
* your legal name and all other know names you use or may have used previously
* your date of birth
* your social insurance number in some cases
* your current and previous addresses
* your current and previous employers
* your credit score
* any current or past accounts in collections for debt recovery
* information which is of public record, such as foreclosure, bankruptcy, consumer proposal, tax liens and repossessions
* a list of all credit inquiries made about you in the past 6 years, for all of the credit you have applied for previously
 
The financial information in your credit report will include:
* who your current & previous creditors are
* the date you opened each credit account
* the current outstanding balance of each active account and the minimum payment due for each, as applicable
* the credit limit of each account
* the details of each account – whether it is a personal loan, mortgage, car loan, credit card
* the payment history of each account for a period of 6 years

Where is My Information Collected From?
 
All of the information contained in your credit report is provided by your creditors, financial institutions, other businesses, public records or third parties such as collection agencies. These parties report your account activities to a credit reporting agency periodically. This is information is kept in your personal credit file and is maintained for a period of 6 years.  
 
Every time you fill in an application for credit, some of the application information will recorded and noted in your credit bureau. This information would include a current address, length of time at current residence & employment details. Such information is offered up by the credit provider to the credit reporting companies in order to keep your personal information current. Your financial account details are also provided by your creditors. These include payment history, balances outstanding, credit type, and credit limits.
 
It is good practise to review your own credit report each year to ensure it is accurate and there are no discrepancies.
 
Who Will Need My Credit Report?
 
You may be asked for a copy of your credit bureau for a number of reasons.  The report will offer up extensive details about you and how you manage your credit and the responsibility associated with it. It provides a track record of your repayment habits and how you manage your financial obligations. It is an indicator of one’s character relating to credit worthiness & trust. Parties who would request to review a copy of your credit report would include:
 
* Banks / Credit Unions
* Credit Card providers
* Insurance Companies
* Employers
* Auto Dealerships (car loans)
* Landlords
* Department Store Accounts
 
A credit report will be required in almost all cases when applying for credit or services of a certain description.
 
What if the information in my report is wrong?

 
It is not uncommon to have errors in a credit report. There are so many bits of personal and financial information being updated and newly created periodically in a credit report all of the time. Due to all of the moving parts, there is a chance that some information may be inaccurate. Or even worst, what if your identity was compromised and your credit stolen and ruined?
 
Never take your credit for granted and ensure you inspect your report at least once a year. You may request a free copy of your credit report through Equifax & TransUnion, and they will forward you a copy by mail. If you notice any irregularities or errors in your credit report, you must contact the creditor or lender. You may also dispute them by contacting the credit bureau agency. You will be required to outline the dispute, and the agency will investigate the situation and make any necessary changes. This process may take a long while in some cases such as stolen identity and fraud, as this type of investigation is conducted very thoroughly.  
 
You may also add notes and comments into your credit report, in an attempt to explain certain occurrences noted in your report. For example, if your report shows you had gone previously bankrupt, you may offer up an explanation as to why bankruptcy was the only option you had at that certain time in your life. The notes & comments offer up a story for the creditor to read and take into consideration for future reference.
 
Where do I get a free copy of my credit report?


You may obtain a free copy of your credit report in Canada through two main agencies who are Equifax & TransUnion. For a free copy of your credit report, you may contact either agency online or by:
 
* phone
* mail/fax
* in person
 
Their websites contain all of the information and direction you will need regarding any questions and to get that free credit report.
 
TransUnion – www.transunion.ca
 
Equifax – consumer.equifax.ca/personal/

 
You will be asked for some personal information from either agency, and they will prepare and send to you a copy of your credit report. It may take up to 10 days to receive the report in the mail. Requesting your own credit report does not reflect negatively in your report or in any manner. You may obtain a free copy of your credit report without any delay or issue.
Picture
What does my Credit Score mean and how is it calculated?
 
Your credit score is a grade of your credit worthiness, based on a numeric score range. Credit scores range from a low of 300 to a high score of 850.  The higher your score, the better is your credit worthiness.
 
The main factors which impact your credit score are:
 

1) Payment History – your payment track record is the most important item which will impact your credit rating.  Approximately, 35% of your credit score is determined by your payment history.  It is critical to make all payments on time and to void missing or being late with payments.

2) Use of Credit – your use of credit, by keeping current balances on your accounts will have a negative effect on your rating. Approximately, 30% of your score is affected by your credit utilization.  It is best o keep your outstanding credit balances at a minimum or to pay in full when you can.

3) Length of Credit History – the length of time you have had an active credit account will also impact your credit score.  Approximately, 15% of your score is affected by the active life span of each creditor account of yours.

4) New Credit & Number of Inquires – Approximately, 10% of your score is affected by you opening a new account and having new inquiry registered on your report as a result.  The more inquiries reported in your credit report may result in a lower credit score.

5) Type of Credit – the type of credit will also impact your credit score – Approximately, 10% of your score is determined by the types of credit accounts you keep.  The various accounts may include credit cards, car loans/leases, mortgage, lines of credit, etc. The more various types of credit you can manage well, will reflect positively and help raise your credit score.
 
It is important to learn how to read your credit report so you can understand the mechanics, spot any issues and ensure the information is accurate.  It is recommended that you request a copy of your personal credit report and review it in detail at least once a year.

Understanding Your Credit: The Complete Guide

10/30/2019

1 Comment

 
Picture

​I cannot stress enough the importance of maintaining good credit. Your credit and its rating will impact so many different aspects of your life – probably more than you know.  Because of this, it is critical to protect it and always keep it in good standing.

To shed some light on this - I wanted to share with you a detailed informative breakdown as to what your credit rating represents, and the many factors influenced by it.


Credit Score? What’s that?
Credit scores in Canada generally range anywhere from 300 to 900 points, with a score of about 650 being an ideal middle number. A score above 650, according to TransUnion, will generally help you qualify for most loans while a score below that may make it a bit more difficult.

Interested in learning more about your credit? You may order a credit report from either credit reporting agencies in Canada (Equifax, TransUnion), or both, for free via mail or over the phone. This should be done at least once a year to stay on top of things.
Picture
Wait.. what’s in my credit report?
Your credit report comprises of all information related to your credit accounts, both active and closed. This includes the following:


  • Name
  • Address
  • Age
  • SIN
  • account balances
  • Credit limits
  • Payment history
  • Employment History

How Bad Credit Affects You
Credit scores are used in various aspects of life to determine your overall creditworthiness. This rating is sometimes used by your mortgage lenders, insurance companies, and even employers and landlords before offering you a job or rental contract.

a) Potential Loans
Whether it’s applying for a line of credit, a mortgage with the bank, or even a personal credit card, your credit score may affect your overall eligibility and whether or not your application gets approved. If approved, a lower credit score may also affect key terms of your loan, including your credit limit, as well as the interest rate provided.

b) New Job
Applying for a new job? Potential employers, depending on the company and role, may require permission to check your credit score as a part of their background check. Having a poor credit score may impact their hiring decision - which could ultimately cost you the job.

c) Car Rental
s
As part of the application process for many car rental companies, a check on your credit history may be required to determine their overall risk with regards to your rental. Again, a low credit score may impact your ability to rent if there is a minimum credit score in place.

d) Hou
sing
Prior to renting a house or apartment, your landlord may ask for your credit score in the application process. A lower credit score may prove the difference in selecting a candidate with a better credit history to become a tenant instead of you.

How long does my information stay on my credit file?
 Actual inquiries made by credit grantors | min. 3 years
 Credit history & banking information  | 6 years from the last activity date
 Bankruptcies | 6 years from the date of discharge 
 Judgments, foreclosures, garnishments | 6 years from the date filed
 Collections  | 6 years from the date of last activity
 Secured loans | 6 years from the date filed

What information is used to calculate my credit score? 
Here is a list of the main factors which affect your credit score:

1. Payment History
Paying late, missing a payment, or having your account sent to a collections agency can significantly affect your credit score.

2. Delinquencies
Bankruptcies, charge-offs and collections can all negatively affect your score.

3. Balance-to-Limit Ratio
Ideally, credit cards should be paid in full at the end of each month. If this is not possible, keeping your balance below 30% of your limit may help your score. Balances above 50% carried over each month may impact your score negatively.

4. Recent Inquiries
Only apply for credit you really need. Applying for too many forms of credit at once may pull several hard checks on your credit file that remains noted. Every time a hard check is made, your score may be lowered a few points. The key to this is applying for credit in moderation, when needed.

5. Length/history of Accounts
Having a longer history of accounts can definitely help your score. Even if you don’t use that old credit card as often, keeping the account open may appear more favourable than closing multiple old accounts.

6. Variety of Credit Accounts
Keeping your credit diversified (credit card, car loan, student loan, etc) versus having only one type of credit may ultimately help your score.

7. Too many accounts
Having too many credit accounts with outstanding balances may be a red flag for lenders, so definitely ensure to keep them in good standing.
Picture
How to Raise Your Credit Score
  1. Order your credit file at least once per year and correct / report any errors.
  2. Keep your balances below 50% of your limits. If they are above, make a plan to reduce these levels of debt.
  3. Pay your bills on time and don't miss a payment - automated payments may help which you can easily set up.
  4. No credit history? Need to rebuild your credit? Opening a secured credit card can help as you pay a deposit (essentially the limit of your card), and use it like a regular credit card. Your payment habits are then reported to the credit bureaus, which can help you get more credit points by keeping your account in good standing.

Remember - your credit score isn't a measure of your self-worth. Sometimes it might be high, and sometimes it might be low.

Top 5 Reasons Your Mortgage Loan Got Declined

9/25/2019

0 Comments

 
Picture
Mortgage loans can become cause for confusion, anxiety, and stress. With lots of questions, terms, and factors coming into play, people often wonder how to tackle the issue of getting declined by the bank. As part of this series, we would like to shed light on how to avoid the chances of getting declined for a mortgage, and the proactive efforts you can make to avoid this from occurring.
 
Just to quickly recap, we pinpointed 5 typical reasons a mortgage application is likely to be declined. These 5 areas seem to be the most common challenges facing many applicants:
 
1) Your Credit Rating & Report
2) Your Earnings and the Type of Income You Have
3) Ability to Meet the Industry Required Debt to Income Ratios & Stress Text Criteria
4) The Type of Property
5) Setting Expectations Incorrectly

 
There may be other situations, however, the five noted above seem to encompass the majority of issues faced by potential borrowers. Let’s take a deeper look:
Picture
1) Your Credit Rating & Credit Report
 
The very best advice I can give is simply “pay your bills”.  It is so important to ensure that you make all credit payments on time.  The reason is that sometimes we mis-calculate our timing and can easily overlook the payment due date. This missed payment will be noted in your credit report and will be a black mark on your record for up to 7 years. This will lower your credit score and present a strike against your credit worthiness – not something you want!  Keep an eye on your payment due dates and try to pay well before the due date to ensure no issues arise. Additionally, you should try and pay your credit balances in full, when and if possible. This will also help improve your credit by improving your utilization ratio. If you make only the minimum payment and keep a credit balance outstanding, this can actually hurt your credit score in the long run. Keep your credit balances at or close to zero if you can - it is best to have a little debt as possible showing on your credit report. This shows the creditor that you are responsible and able to manage your obligations, and not an ultimate risk to them. If you cannot afford it, then don’t buy it. Ensure you have the cash to cover the credit purchase you make. Avoid trying to apply for many forms of credit and be careful as to the type of credit you are applying for. The number of times you apply for credit is recorded in your report and may reflect negatively on you, as you may be viewed as a desperate credit seeker. Stay away from certain creditors such as Payday Loans, because lenders may think that you cannot maintain finances and the responsibility of a loan. A damaged credit report is not easy to repair and takes a long time to do so, so ensure you protect and keep it up to date.
Picture
2) Your Earnings & Type of Income 
 
Lenders look very closely at income and the type of employment.  If you are salaried, the income confirmation is relatively straight forward.  But if you are a contract worker, paid by the hour with plenty of overtime or self-employed, the loan approval income confirmation will vary.  Lenders look for consistent income and length of time at the job or in your particular career.  Income is usually consistent with those on a salary, but this may not be the case for contract workers and those who are self-employed.  If you are salaried, the basic income confirmation information required would be:
 
  • copy of a current paystub
  • job letter
  • most recent T4 Slip
  • copy of the most recent Notice of Income Tax Assessment

Lenders will use more scrutiny for those on contract or are self-employed.  The reason is that self-employed income is not consistent nor guaranteed unlike a salary.  They will require a track record from the applicant, usually a 2-3 year period, which will show a steady income pattern for the lender to rely on for the approval.  The lender wants to ensure that commission or self-employed earnings are consistent year after year.  The typical documents a commissioned or self-employed individual will have to supply to the lender are:
 
  • last 2-3 years of Notice of Income Tax Assessments (personal & corporate)
  • last 2-3 years Formal Income Tax Returns (personal & corporate)
  • personal & corporate financial statements
  • any other personal or corporate tax declarations or financials as deemed necessary by the lender
 
This is quite a compelling list, with no guarantee of approval from the lender.  Ensure you are prepared for whatever income requirements fit your situation.  Best advice is to speak with a mortgage professional and know your options and the requirements beforehand.  This will save you time and potential let down.
 
Picture
3) Ability to Meet the Industry Required Debt to Income Ratios & Stress Text Criteria
 
Servicing debt ratios are used by many institutional mortgage lenders, and they are a key indicator as to affordability of the loan for the customer.  They will assess your income as highlighted above, and then offset it against proportional expenses to determine how much you can afford to borrow.  The 2 main ratios used by institutional lenders are the Gross Debt Service Ratio (GDSR) & Total Debt Service Ratio (TDSR).  In a nutshell, the two ratios represent the following:
 
(GDSR) – The Gross Debt Service Ratio ensures that no more than 32% of your gross monthly household income is used to cover the following monthly expenses:
 
  • monthly mortgage payment
  • monthly property tax amount
  • 50% of the monthly strata fees (if applicable)
  • monthly heating expense
 
(TDSR) – The Total Debt Service Ratio ensures that no more than 40% of a gross household income can be used to cover the items noted with the GDSR, in addition to the following monthly credit obligations:
 
  • any outstanding credit card monthly payments
  • any outstanding personal loan monthly payments
  • any outstanding credit line monthly payments
  • any outstanding car loan payments
  • any other debt outstanding payments
 
These two ratios will set the ceiling as to the maximum amount you can borrow, based on your income and overall monthly expenses.  However, there are various lenders in the market, those who are more flexible, and their mortgage approval ratio percentages are higher.  This may result in you qualifying for a higher mortgage loan amount, but the costs and interest rate may differ compared to those of a bank.
 
The loan ratio calculations may seem confusing, and that is why you should contact a mortgage professional, so the process is explained and easier to understand.
 
Above and beyond the ratios noted above, the Government of Canada has also implemented a financial stress test for mortgage loan approvals.  “The so-called stress test is a financial bar that any Canadian looking to take out a mortgage must pass to be approved for one…. The idea is to save the borrowers from biting off more debt than they can chew and ensure they have financial wiggle room if rates rise.”  A mortgage professional will help you maneuver through the ratio calculations and stress test requirement and streamline the mortgage approval process for you.
Picture
4) Type of Property
 
The type of property being mortgaged will also impact the loan approval.  Owner-occupied properties typically get the best mortgage rates and options associated with them.  Lenders favour owner-occupied properties, because they tend to be less of a riskier situation for the lender.  Homeowners typically have pride in home ownership, and so in most cases will maintain their financial responsibilities regarding their home. 
 
On the other hand, rental properties usually warrant higher interest rates in some situations and may have additional costs associated with the loan set-up.  Being a revenue property, the loan amount you qualify for will also be impacted by the rental income and all fixed costs associated with the rental property.  Far more scrutiny is applied by lenders towards rental properties, because the calculated risk is higher for them.
 
Vacation or recreational properties also fall under a different category regarding the mortgage approval process.  They are also subject to typically higher interest rates & costs in some cases, since they are not a primary residence and tend to be in rural areas. 
 
It is best to speak with a mortgage professional to know your options when considering the purchase of any type property.  
Picture
5) Setting Expectations Incorrectly
 
Most of us want to embrace the unreal feeling of the “Pride of Homeownership”, yet we tend to forget the fact that the responsibilities can be tremendous.  Owning a home and paying a mortgage is not the same as simply paying rent.  It is far from it.  The additional responsibilities of owning a property are many.  In addition to your monthly mortgage payment, you can anticipate the following expenses:
 
  • property taxes
  • monthly strata fees
  • heating expense
  • water & hydro
  • garbage collection / municipal costs
  • property maintenance & repairs
  • gardening expenses
  • interest & opportunity cost
  • potential special assessment expense (strata properties) – this could result in tens of thousands of dollars
  • unexpected costs
 
It is best to have a game plan in place, prior to jumping right in and rushing to buy, refinance or take out equity of a property.  Ensure you know what lies ahead and what options fit your situation.  Contact a mortgage profession, who will coach and guide your through this process effectively. This will greatly improve your chances of getting your mortgage approved and avoid being let down and discouraged.
