Missed Mortgage Payments
Ethan and Daisy, both in their forties, live in a condo townhome in Oakville with their three children. When Ethan lost his job as an IT professional, they quickly burned through their savings and fell behind on their bills. After missing their $2,640 mortgage payment for the third time, they received a legal notice warning of the Power of Sale process.
They were also behind on property taxes, maintenance fees, and credit card payments. With nowhere else to turn, they applied for help at their bank, only to be declined due to their mortgage default. They were terrified they’d lose their home, unsure of the legal rights and remedies for homeowners in Ontario, or how to stop Power of Sale from proceeding.
How to Avoid Mortgage Default with Home Equity:
After reviewing their situation, we confirmed the family’s total arrears: three missed mortgage payments, unpaid property taxes, condo fees, and unsecured debt. Since they were already in default, refinancing was not an option. We explained the differences between Power of Sale and foreclosure, and how a second mortgage from an alternative lender could prevent or stop Power of Sale before their lender took legal action.
We ordered a rush appraisal to confirm their home’s market value and equity position. The numbers worked. Because they had enough equity, we could proceed with a tailored rescue plan that prioritized speed and flexibility—key when legal deadlines are in motion.
Our team structured a solution using a second mortgage to cover all arrears, legal fees, and even future costs. This gave them immediate mortgage relief while Ethan searched for new employment. The loan was designed as a form of mortgage forbearance, with prepaid interest so they wouldn’t have to make monthly payments for 12 months.
Results
Ethan and Daisy were able to stop the legal process and avoid losing their home. Their late mortgage payments and other debts were brought up to date, and the additional funds gave them a financial buffer while Ethan re-entered the workforce. This case shows how homeowners who can’t afford their mortgage still have options—especially when they act early. With the right strategy, it’s possible to stop legal action, protect your home, and buy time to recover from financial hardship.
