Self-Employed Mortgages in Canada

In this video I will explain how we help self employed Canadians obtain the best mortgages at the lowest rates.  So, let me tell you about a client named William. William is self-employed electrician and runs his own business. Like many people who are self-employed , William faced a challenge when it came to getting a mortgage with his bank.


Here’s the thing: Williams’s bank only looked at his personal income. And as with many business owners, he showed far less income on paper for tax purposes than his gross business income. William hit a dead-end with his bank since their pre-approval amount was far too low, but that’s when William turned to us at Red Key Mortgage. With access to specialized programs, we were able to ‘state’ his earnings to the lenders which better reflected his true borrowing power.


Whether you run a corporation, like William, or operate as a sole proprietor, we have tailored mortgage solutions to fit your needs. Our approach takes into account the nuances of your business and personal finances to ensure you’re eligible for the right mortgage.


In the end, we helped William secure his dream home by qualifying for over ¼ millions dollar more than his bank offered. If you’re self-employed and navigating the mortgage process, don’t let tax planning stand in the way of homeownership. Mortgages are simple for us, let us make them simple for you.

At Red Key Mortgage, we’re committed to openly discussing the pros and cons of each lending option, so you can make an informed decision about which lender is worthy of your business.
