A typical Ontario home — Job Loss or Illness

What's going on

A job loss or a serious illness can upend your finances almost overnight. The income drops, the bills keep coming, and the mortgage that was manageable suddenly isn't. On top of the stress of the situation itself, the house becomes a worry.

This page is general information, not financial advice. Please speak with your lender about hardship options and a licensed professional if debt is mounting. Here's how a direct sale can help.

Your options

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

Talk to your lender about hardship

Many lenders offer hardship options — a temporary deferral, interest-only payments, or a payment plan — if you've lost a job or faced illness. Ask early.

Refinance or modify

If your situation is temporary, refinancing or modifying the mortgage can lower the payments until you're back on your feet.

Sell and reset

If the situation is longer-term, selling can pay off the mortgage and give you a fresh start without the monthly burden. We can close in as little as 7 days, or on the date you choose.

How we can help

  • We buy the house as-is — no repairs or cleaning while you're dealing with bigger things.
  • We can close in as little as 7 days, or on the date you choose.
  • There's no cost and no obligation to get an offer, so you can weigh it against hardship options.
  • We'll be honest about whether working with your lender first makes more sense for you.
