Canadian Private Lenders

Canadian private lenders provide loans and mortgages where most Canadian banks will not. The banks avoid any type of risk associated with loans and mortgages (that is how they make so much money). Canadian private lenders take a more personal approach to making a loan, they usually only lend in a small geographic area and want to meet the borrower before making the loan. By understanding the borrower private lenders in Canada can reduce the risk and provide to borrower with the required funds at a competitive interest rate. If you have been turned down by the banks the private lenders in Canada may be the answer to your financial concerns.

Canadian private lenders provide loans for first mortgages, second mortgages and third mortgages for homes across Canada. First mortgages are the most secure since they have first priority when the house is sold. Second mortgages and third mortgages carry a higher level of risk and therefore they also have a higher rate of interest. Canadian private lenders also can provide money for refinancing your existing mortgage even if you have been turned down by a bank. Canadian private lenders can also replace existing first and second mortgages with a new first mortgage, in most cases the new combined mortgage will result in lower overall interest payments.
