But here’s what most banks won’t tell you: Power of Sale can be stopped — even at the last minute — if you act fast and work with a lender who can step in immediately.

If you’re behind on mortgage payments…

If you received a Notice of Sale…

If lawyers are already involved…

If your home is about to be listed without your consent…

You still have options — and Lendworth specializes in stopping Power of Sale same day.

What Is a Power of Sale (And Why It Moves So Fast)?

In Ontario, a Power of Sale allows your lender to take control of your property and sell it to recover what’s owed.

Unlike foreclosure, the bank doesn’t need to take ownership — meaning the process is much faster, often just 35–45 days from the first notice.

Once it starts:

  • Legal fees stack up

  • Missed payments get added to your balance

  • Your equity gets eaten away

  • Your home can be listed and sold before you even realize how fast the timeline moves

This is why immediate action is critical.

How Lendworth Stops a Power of Sale (Step-by-Step)

1. Rapid Home Equity Assessment

We calculate available equity using your property value, location, and remaining mortgage balances.

2. Immediate Payoff Strategy

We create a plan to pay off arrears, legal fees, taxes, or penalties — whatever is required to stop the process.

3. Same-Day Commitment Letter

If approved, we issue a legally binding commitment your lawyer can use to delay pending actions.

4. 24-Hour Funding

Your new mortgage replaces the current lender, stopping Power of Sale instantly.

5. Stabilization & Exit Strategy

We help set you up to refinance back to a bank later at lower rates.

Signs You’re at Risk of Power of Sale

If you’ve experienced any of the following, call Lendworth immediately:

  • Missed 2 or more mortgage payments

  • Received a Notice of Sale or Demand Letter

  • Property tax arrears

  • CRA liens

  • Judgments or collections

  • Your lender refuses a payment plan

  • Your file has already been sent to lawyers

The earlier you act, the more equity you protect.

Real Talk: Waiting Will Cost You Thousands

Every day the Power of Sale moves forward, you’re being charged for:

  • Legal fees

  • Statement of claim fees

  • Administrative charges

  • Default interest

  • Property management fees

  • Realtor commissions (when your lender lists your home)

A $10,000 arrears problem can become $40,000+ in weeks.
