OUR REVIEWS

Organic Body Shop

Great service. I got a bank rate better than td was offering through here. I referred them to a friend in financial trouble. She got a private mortgage and even though it cost a lot in fees. It prevented to foreclosure to allow my friend to sell on his own terms. All fees are upfront. Everything goes through lawyers.

Frank Mueller

Trillium was able to help place a difficult mortgage for me when other brokers turned me away. I know based on initial discussions with other brokers that I ended up paying less in brokerage fees than I would have through Trillium. All in all, I felt I was treated fairly and received transparent communication from Frank.

Justyna Marzec

Mr. Frank Manzo is and always has been straight forward. He did not hide any information or mislead me in anyway, everything was communicated in a way that made sense to me. He helped me acquire a mortgage on a property with very little time left in the clause, even asked for an extension for me. I have all the time in the world for Frank and do not ever hesitate recommending him to any one who is looking for a mortgage. Thank You for everything Frank.

Can I get a mortgage in Ontario with bad credit?

Yes. Even with poor credit or collections, you can qualify through private mortgage lenders who base approvals on your home equity, not your credit score. These lenders focus on property value and location instead of your credit history.

Can I refinance my home if I have mortgage arrears or unpaid taxes?

Yes. A refinance or home equity take-out can pay off arrears, CRA debts, or property taxes and stop a power of sale before it progresses.

What’s the difference between a private lender and a bank?

Banks rely on strict credit and income criteria. Private lenders use equity-based lending, focusing on property value, location, and loan-to-value ratio, allowing flexible approvals when banks say no.

Can I get approved for a mortgage in Ontario with bad credit or self-employed income?

Yes. Private and alternative lenders use equity-based lending, meaning your approval depends on your property’s value and available equity rather than your credit score or income verification.
👉 Get Started with a Free Consultation

What documents are needed for an equity-based mortgage?

You’ll typically need property details, recent mortgage statement, property tax bill, and valid ID. Income proof is optional — your property’s equity determines approval.

How does a HELOC differ from a refinance?

A Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) gives you revolving access to funds, while a refinance provides a single lump-sum payment from your home’s equity.
👉 Get Started with a Free Consultation

Can a private mortgage stop a power of sale?

Yes. A private refinance can immediately pay arrears and stop a power of sale or foreclosure, preserving your ownership before the process completes.

How do private construction or renovation mortgages work?

These progress-draw loans release funds in stages as work is completed. Private lenders simplify approvals and financing for custom builds or major renovations.
