Mortgage Refinancing
If you have a mortgage that has a high interest rate, it may benefit you to do a refinance. Refinancing means that you get a new mortgage with a different lender that replaces your existing mortgage. Refinancing can also be done to take cash out of your home or change the terms of your mortgage, for example in the case of divorce, inheritance, or buying out partners in a real estate project.
We can help you get the refinancing you need, even if you are self-employed.
Basic refinancing information for business owners & self-employed professionals
Different mortgage programs have different qualification requirements. As a general guideline, in order to qualify for a refinance as a self-employed borrower, you will need:
a home equity of at least 20%
a credit score of 660 or more
a debt-to-income ratio of 43% or less (this is the ratio between your monthly income and your monthly debt servicing payments)
at least four months worth of your full mortgage payment as a reserve in your bank account

When to do a refinance
Refinancing is often done when general interest rates in the market have gone down, allowing you to swap out your current mortgage for a new mortgage with a better rate. It can also be done because you want to take cash out of your property, or because you want to improve your cash flow by lowering your mortgage payments. A refinance may also be necessary in the case of inheritance, divorce, or buying out partners in a real estate project.
There are many options available, and we can let you know about these during a Free Brainstorming consultation.
