Why Homeowners Use Home Equity Loans in Ontario
Access Equity Without Selling
Use the equity built into your Ontario property to access funds without having to sell your home.
Flexible Qualification
Property value and available equity are important considerations, including when credit or traditional income requirements are challenging.
Use Funds Where Needed
Home equity financing can help with debt consolidation, renovations, tax obligations, business needs or other major expenses.
How Much Home Equity Can You Access?
The amount you may be able to borrow depends on your property's value, existing mortgage balances and acceptable loan-to-value. Available equity does not necessarily mean the entire amount can be borrowed.
Estimated Property Value
$1,000,000
Existing Mortgage
$550,000
Proposed Home Equity Financing
$150,000
Total Financing
$700,000
Estimated Loan-to-Value
70%
In this example, the proposed total mortgage financing represents 70% of the property's estimated value. Actual financing depends on the property, location, existing mortgages and overall lending structure.
Home Equity Loan, Second Mortgage or HELOC?
| Option | How It Works | Best Suited For |
|---|---|---|
| Home Equity Loan | Access a lump sum secured against available property equity | Major expenses or debt consolidation |
| Second Mortgage | Additional mortgage registered behind your first mortgage | Keeping an existing first mortgage in place |
| HELOC | Revolving access to available equity, where offered and qualified | Ongoing or flexible borrowing |
The appropriate structure depends on your existing mortgage, required amount, available equity, financing costs and how you intend to repay the funds.
