Why Homeowners Use Power of Sale Solutions in Ontario

1

Review the Lender Payout

Determine the amount required to address or refinance the existing mortgage, including applicable arrears and costs.

2

Access Available Equity

Private mortgage financing may use available property equity when conventional refinancing is no longer available.

3

Act Before the Property Is Sold

The further enforcement progresses, the less time remains to complete appraisal, underwriting and legal work.

What Is Power of Sale in Ontario?

Power of Sale is a mortgage-enforcement remedy that can allow a lender to sell mortgaged property after default when the applicable mortgage terms and legal requirements have been satisfied. Ontario's Mortgages Act requires notice before a lender exercises a power of sale.

A Power of Sale situation is therefore different from simply being behind on payments. If formal lender enforcement has already started, the file should be reviewed promptly with your lawyer and mortgage professional.

Top Power of Sale questions answered

Potentially. The ability to refinance depends on the stage of enforcement, lender payout amount, available equity, title and time required to complete the transaction.

Credit challenges and arrears do not automatically prevent private mortgage financing. Property value, equity, mortgage position, timing and the proposed exit strategy are important considerations.
