How fast can I close after being declined?

Private and second mortgages can close in as fast as 5–7 business days. B-lender refinances typically take 2–3 weeks.

I've been declined by two banks already — is that a dealbreaker?

Not at all. Most of my clients come to me after a decline. Banks decline for narrow reasons; alternative and private lenders look at the full picture.

What if I have no traditional proof of income?

Stated-income and equity-based programs exist specifically for self-employed, commission-based, and cash-flow-heavy borrowers. That's one of my specialties.

When the bank says no

Your bank said no. That's not the end of the story.

Banks decline for one reason — you didn't fit their narrow box. I work with 70+ Ontario lenders who actually want your file: purchase, refinance, second mortgage, private, self-employed, bruised credit. There's almost always a path.

What happened with your bank?

The 3 most common reasons

Why banks say no — and why I say yes.

Self-employed or commission income

Banks want two years of clean T4s. I have stated-income and alt-A programs built for entrepreneurs.

This is exactly what I solve.

Bruised or thin credit

One missed payment shouldn't kill your file. B-lenders and private lenders weigh the story, not just the score.

This is exactly what I solve.

Too much debt / stress test failure

If GDS/TDS killed your bank application, a refinance-to-consolidate plan often fixes it in one move.

This is exactly what I solve.

Bank Said No FAQ

Straight answers.

Everything most people want to know before picking up the phone.

No. There is no credit pull to get a quote. A credit check only happens once you're ready to formally apply and you give consent.
