In the 15 years that I have been brokering mortgages it has never been harder or more expensive to get mortgage financing for consumers who are even slightly on the fringe of being classified an “A” Borrower. Who falls into this category? As long as it isn’t you or I, who cares, right? But wait, it is me, and it might be you too!
The number of people who now find themselves sideways in a mortgage market that once showered them with low cost money will surprise you. Unless it already has. Do you know if you qualify with the new income requirements that have been set? Are you one of the Canadians with slightly less than perfect credit who slid through with an “A” rate mortgage in the past? Could you be one of the homeowners in Toronto who bought a new house with the hopes of selling their old home in a market that no longer exists? Maybe you’re one of the folks who thought that the mortgage approval from their bank meant their mortgage was approved? Or in response to a great investment opportunity maybe you tried to access some of the equity in your home only to find out that you can’t because your friendly bank can no longer accommodate you.
