At EquityRich, we are aware that a customized financing solution is necessary for a successful real estate investment in the vibrant Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Our specialty is offering strong, equity-based mortgage options that give you the confidence to take advantage of opportunities and grow your real estate holdings.
A property investment mortgage is a type of financial instrument intended for the purpose of purchasing homes or businesses for capital gains or rental income. These loans, which differ from standard residential mortgages, are designed to take into account the particular financial characteristics of investment properties, including potential rental income and property value appreciation.
Getting the right investment property can be crucial to reaching your financial goals in the quickly changing Canadian real estate market, especially in the Greater Toronto Area. With a thriving market with steady demand and rising values, you can increase your presence in this profitable industry by using your current equity or obtaining alternative financing through a well-structured mortgage for investment property.
Real estate investors and homeowners in the GTA who want to expand their property portfolio. Whether you’re purchasing your first investment property or adding to an existing portfolio, our equity-based approach makes it possible regardless of your income or credit history.
We evaluate the possible investment property and your overall financial situation when you submit your application, which starts the process. EquityRich prioritizes the equity in your property over strict income or credit score requirements, in contrast to traditional lenders. A greater variety of investors in the Greater Toronto Area can now access the market thanks to this innovative strategy.
Equity-based lending is our main area of interest. We assess the equity that currently exists in your property or the property you plan to purchase. This gives us a major edge in the private lending market by enabling us to provide competitive mortgage rates on investment properties and loan-to-value (LTV) ratios of up to 70-75%.
We create a personalized investment property mortgage loan that fits your investment objectives based on our equity assessment. We provide first and second position mortgages, giving you the freedom to efficiently use the value of your property as leverage. This customized strategy sets us apart from traditional lenders.
Our dedication to reducing conventional borrowing barriers is one of EquityRich's primary differentiators. Unlike reverse mortgages, we don't have minimum age restrictions, minimum income, or credit score requirements. Getting a property for an investment is easier and more effective with this simplified process.
The money is released after approval, allowing you to finish buying the property. In the competitive GTA market, our streamlined procedure guarantees that you can act swiftly on investment opportunities, enabling you to profit from timely real estate endeavours.
Selecting EquityRich for your Greater Toronto Area property investment entails working with an expert who is knowledgeable about the ins and outs of real estate investing and the equity value of your property. We are a committed private/alternative mortgage lender that is in a unique position to provide solutions where traditional institutions might not be able to. We are not a traditional bank. Our strength is our equity-based lending model, which enables us to approve financing solutions by considering your asset’s actual value rather than just your financial history. In a dynamic market where quick access to capital is essential, this strategy is especially beneficial.
Unmatched flexibility in funding your real estate goals is offered by our dedication to high loan-to-value ratios and our capacity to obtain both first and second position mortgages. By removing typical obstacles like age limitations, minimum credit scores, and income verification, we enable a wider range of investors to invest in real estate. EquityRich offers the strategic financial leverage you require to grow your portfolio and optimize your returns, regardless of your level of experience as an investor or your desire to purchase your first investment property in Canada.
Property prices have done one useful thing for owners: they have built real equity. If you already own a home in the GTA, that equity can fund your next rental without you having to pass a bank’s income test. A property investment mortgage in Toronto from EquityRich is approved mainly on the equity sitting in your property, which is why self-employed owners, retirees, and investors with several mortgages already on the books can still move on a deal.
We lend directly on residential investment property, and where a partner lender offers a better rate or a structure we cannot fund in-house, we can place the deal as a brokerage. Either way, the starting question is the same: how much equity do you have, and what do you want to do with it.
Most investors who come to us are doing one of two things. The first is a straight buy-and-hold rental, a condo near a transit line, a semi in Scarborough, a duplex in the east end, where the rent covers the carrying costs and the property appreciates over time.
The second is the BRRRR approach: buy, renovate, rent, refinance, repeat. The hard part of BRRRR is the refinance step, because banks want two years of tax returns and a clean debt-service ratio before they will pull your renovation cash back out. Equity-based lending solves that. Once the unit is rented and the value has gone up, we can refinance against the new appraised value so your capital is freed to buy the next property. Investors building a portfolio of secondary suites and small multi-unit buildings use this to keep moving without waiting on bank timelines.
Loan-to-value (LTV) is the size of the mortgage compared with the property’s appraised value. On Toronto investment property we generally work within roughly 75% to 80% LTV in a first mortgage position, and equity permitting we can sit in a second position behind an existing lender. A property worth $1,000,000 with 75 percent available LTV supports about $750,000 in total mortgage financing; subtract any existing balance to see what is left to access.
The exact ceiling depends on the property type, location, condition, and whether it is owner-occupied or fully tenanted. Toronto values being what they are, a long-held home or rental often carries more usable equity than the owner expects, which is the whole point of looking at the deal on equity rather than income. For a residential cash-out specifically, our investment property financing through home equity options can stack alongside or behind your current mortgage.
Once you move into larger apartment buildings, mixed-use, retail, or industrial property, the underwriting changes and so does the product. For those purchases see our commercial mortgage page, and if you are weighing a multi-unit building it is worth knowing how to evaluate multi-unit family properties for financing in Toronto before you write an offer.

Yes. Bank declines usually come down to income documentation or having too many properties already financed. We look at the equity in the property you are buying or refinancing first, so a bank's no is not the end of the conversation.
Less than a bank would require. Because approval leads with equity, we can work with self-employed, retired, or portfolio borrowers who struggle to document income in the traditional way. Rental income still helps the file, it just is not the gatekeeper.
For a purchase, your equity contribution generally needs to put the deal inside our LTV range, often around 20 to 25 percent down on Toronto residential investment property. If you are refinancing, the equity already in the property does that job.
Equity-based files move faster than conventional applications because there is less income paperwork to verify. Once we have an appraisal and the property details, funding is typically arranged in days rather than weeks, which matters in a competitive market.
Yes, and it is one of the most common requests. We refinance against the current appraised value so you can pull equity out for the next purchase, a renovation, or to consolidate debt, then keep the property in your portfolio.
No credit check. No income verification. Our team is ready to help you unlock the value of your home.
