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.
