A typical Ontario home — Behind on Your Mortgage Payments

What's going on

Falling behind on your mortgage payments is one of the most stressful things a homeowner can go through. The letters start arriving, the phone calls come, and it can feel like there's no way out. But you do have options, and the earlier you act, the more of them there tend to be.

This page is general information, not legal or financial advice. Please speak with your lender and a lawyer or licensed insolvency trustee about your specific situation. Here's how a direct sale might fit.

Your options

Selling to us is only one path. Here are the options most homeowners consider in this situation.

Talk to your lender early

Lenders would usually rather work with you than force a sale. Ask about a payment deferral, a skip-a-payment option, or adding the missed payments to the end of the mortgage. The earlier you call, the more flexible they tend to be.

Refinance or consolidate

If you have enough equity, refinancing or consolidating other debts into your mortgage can lower your monthly costs. A mortgage broker can help you see what's possible.

Sell the house

If the payments simply aren't sustainable, selling may be the calmer path. A direct sale to us can close in as little as 7 days, or on the date you choose, and you walk away with no further mortgage payments.

How we can help

  • We can buy your house as-is — no repairs, no cleaning, no showings.
  • We can close in as little as 7 days, or on the date you choose, which can matter a lot when you're behind.
  • There's no cost and no obligation to get an offer, so you can weigh it against your other options.
  • We'll be honest if we think working with your lender or a professional is the better first step for you.
