Your Path to a Private Mortgage in Pickering
Pickering's Seaton growth corridor, its nuclear and light-manufacturing employment base, and a steady stream of commuter investors mean many deals fall outside conventional lending boxes. That's exactly the deal flow BNQ was built to underwrite.
Connect with a Licensed Agent
We work exclusively with FSRA-licensed agents whose brokerage is registered with BNQ Financial. They know our products, our process, and how to structure your file right. No broker yet? We'll connect you with one.
Share Your Scenario — No Judgment
Your agent gathers the details — the property, the financing need, your exit plan. We look at the full picture, not just a credit score.
Receive Your Term Sheet — Within 24–48 Hours
BNQ reviews and responds with a clear term sheet. No moving goalposts. If we say yes, it's funded.
Close With Certainty
Your agent coordinates closing alongside our team — straightforward documentation, FSRA-compliant, accountable to the finish line.
What are You Looking to Fund?
Our core product. First-position private lending for borrowers who need a lender that looks past the checklist.
For clients who don't qualify at an A or B lender — self-employed borrowers, those navigating a credit event, non-traditional income, or time-sensitive situations — BNQ Financial provides first-position private mortgages with speed and certainty. Open, closed, and partially open term options available.
IDEAL SCENARIOS
- Self-employed borrowers with non-T4 income
- Recent credit events or bruised credit history
- Clients in financial transition — divorce, estate, career change
- Urgent closings — declined elsewhere, firm timeline
Open terms, closed terms, and partially open terms available. 1- and 2-year terms.
Access equity without disturbing your existing mortgage. Fast approval, clear terms.
Second-position private mortgages for borrowers who need to access built-up equity without refinancing their existing first mortgage. BNQ Financial moves quickly and structures second mortgages around the borrower's exit strategy — not around a one-size-fits-all policy.
IDEAL SCENARIOS
- Debt consolidation without refinancing the first mortgage
- Home renovation — accessing built equity
- Business capital or investment needs
- Down payment assistance for an investment property purchase
Open, closed, and partially open 1-year terms. Metropolitan, urban, and suburban Ontario. Minimum and maximum loan amounts apply.
Short-term financing so your client can move forward without losing the deal.
Bridge financing covers the gap between buying a new property and selling an existing one. BNQ Financial provides fast-approval bridge loans designed for time-sensitive situations — so clients can act with confidence in a competitive market without waiting for sale proceeds.
IDEAL SCENARIOS
- Client has an accepted offer but existing property not yet sold
- Firm closing date with no room to wait
- Competitive market conditions requiring fast action
- Delayed sale proceeds on an existing property
Fast approvals. Interest-only payments during the bridge period. Flexible exit strategy structuring.
Access capital from your home — without qualifying at a bank.
For clients who have built significant home equity but cannot access a conventional refinance, BNQ Financial provides lump-sum equity release in either first or second position. No income qualification restrictions. Interest-only payment options available.
IDEAL SCENARIOS
- Debt consolidation — paying down high-interest obligations
- Home renovation and improvement financing
- Business investment or working capital
- Tax obligations — CRA payments or other time-sensitive liabilities
First or second position depending on scenario. Lump-sum capital release. Interest-only payment options.
Scale your portfolio beyond what banks will allow. No property count caps.
Banks limit how many properties they will mortgage for a single investor — typically cutting off at five or six. BNQ Financial doesn’t impose portfolio caps. For real estate investors building or refinancing a portfolio of 1–4 unit residential rental properties, we assess each property on its own merits: the asset, the rental income, and the equity position. First and second position available.
IDEAL SCENARIOS
- Investor has reached the bank’s property count limit and needs to keep growing
- Refinancing a rental to pull equity for the next acquisition
- Self-employed investors with non-traditional income documentation
- Adding a property to a portfolio while existing rentals are already mortgaged at institutional lenders
1–4 unit residential rental properties across Ontario. First and second position available.
