How our home equity loans work

In Vancouver, you can borrow up to 80% of your home’s value if it exists as equity.

Here’s an example for illustrative purposes only.

If your home was worth $500,000, and what was left in your mortgage was $100,000, your home equity in total would be $400,000. According to federal regulations, you are allowed to borrow $400,000, since it falls within the 80% limit.

Once we have determined your available equity, you’ll receive an application within 24 hours. One reason we move so quickly compared to other lenders is that we are not concerned about your credit score.

What we care about is the available equity in your home and whether it’s enough to meet your needs. On approval, the funds will be deposited directly into your account. Repayments are made in instalments, the same as mortgage payments.
