Mortgage Minutes

We believe the best way to introduce a complex idea is in the most matter of fact way possible - and in under a minute. 

Our residential mortgage team is educating audiences across Canada about different products and features of mortgages through a series that has launched on our social platforms called the KV Capital Mortgage Minute.

Apply

Our one-step online application is secure and takes less than one minute to complete.

Processing

After your application is received, we'll contact you to discuss your needs and specific goals. Next, we’ll prepare and send your application to one or more of our lenders for a rate hold (if you are looking for a new home or additional property) or a rate approval (if you already own or have an accepted offer on a property).

Funding and your closing appointment

Your mortgage is now ready to be registered and signed. This can be done by making an appointment with your lawyer or facilitating company—we'll let you know the process in advance. The mortgage funds are then transferred to the seller (purchases) or to a lender (existing mortgages).

Acceptance

Once your loan application is approved, you will be sent a Mortgage Commitment which you’ll need to sign and return along with any other requested documentation. Once these final documents have been approved by the lender, your loan will be instructed to your lawyers office.

Beyond funding

Our job isn’t done just because the funding is—we’re with you for the life of your mortgage. We can conduct a review when your term comes to an end, refinance your existing mortgage, assist with the purchase of an additional property, right through to the moment you become mortgage free!

Builder perks

Our builder perks program rewards clients who choose to obtain a mortgage through our home builder partners with exclusive perks including:

  • Proactive approval: obtain full approval and lock in your rate for 12 months as long as the purchase price, your employment and/or credit does not change. Carry your discounted rate forward or choose a lower rate if available, up to 3 months before possession.
  • Flexibility: move from a variable to a fixed rate mortgage at any time during your term. The new term must exceed the remaining term of the variable mortgage.
  • Fixed monthly payments: enjoy a lower variable rate mortgage with the comfort of knowing that your monthly payments will remain fixed for the term of your mortgage.
  • 12-month rate hold: secure your rate hold of Prime – 0.9% for up to 12 months. 90 days prior to possession, we’ll help you find the best rate and terms available at that time.

What is a mortgage agent?

KV Capital’s mortgage agents work with a number of different lenders to help find a mortgage to suit your specific needs. If you meet standard guidelines, working with us is typically free. In situations where a fee is incurred, rest assured that it will be communicated to you and documented up front.

What are the costs of obtaining a mortgage?

Some costs associated with a mortgage include legal fees, appraisals, home inspections, and utility hook-ups.

What is the difference between an insured and uninsured mortgage?

If your down payment is less than 20%, your mortgage will be insured by CMHC; lenders cannot lend more than 80% of the value of a home unless it is protected. When your down payment is 20% or more, it is considered a non-insured mortgage.

Why is getting pre-approved for a mortgage so important?

Getting a mortgage pre-approval is important for a few reasons. A pre-approval will let you see what you can comfortably afford (mortgage, taxes, utilities, etc.) and it will allow you to stay within your means, which; can mitigate potential problems before you start the house hunt.

Once I am pre-approved for a mortgage, will I have any issues obtaining a mortgage?

Once a pre-approval is issued, you are officially qualified as an applicant. At this point, we can verify your income, credit history, and down payment. We cannot, however, pre-approve a home purchase; this is subject to lender or insurer approval.

What happens when I find a home?

Once you find a home you love, the fun begins. Your offer to purchase is accepted, the mortgage is approved by the lender or insurer, conditions are removed (i.e., subject to financing), lawyers will sign off on legal paperwork, you will need to pay the remaining down-payment and closing costs, and now - you've officially purchased a house!
