I think we are on the leading edge of unknown economic impacts from the Covid-19 virus.
I wanted to get this information into your hands sooner, rather than later.
Here’s what I have for you:
1. Mortgage payment deferral program.
2. Mortgage lender customer service lines.
Mortgage Payment Deferral Program:
Mortgage lenders and I have confirmed that all Mortgage default insurance companies are offering help to those struggling during these tough times with up to 6-months payment deferral/capitalization as well as other solutions.
This can mean:
- Offering a temporary short-term payment deferral.
- Extending the original repayment period (amortization) in order to lower your monthly Mortgage payments.
- Adding any missed payments (arrears) to the Mortgage balance and spreading them over the remaining Mortgage repayment period.
- Offering a special arrangement unique to your particular financial situation (Government imposed work stoppage due to Covid-19 might apply).
NOTE: The above information is from CMHC’s website and for general information illustration purposes.
That said, please take action if there is a possibility of missing a Mortgage payment(s).
In times of financial difficulty, please do the very best one can to preserve credit. Please explore all available options that might help you. I am here to help you, reach out.
