Often during your mortgage journey, you will run into bank specialists and other mortgage agents or brokers that will tell you what you want to hear, so you give them the documents required to get your approval. While we understand you as a client want to hear you will get the lowest rate, please be aware that unless any mortgage broker or bank specialist has been given all the required documents and has fully underwritten your file, any rates offered are just quotes and not firm approval. Many times we find clients have been told what they want to hear because either the client has forced the mortgage broker or bank specialist to say to them the lowest rate, or they have just been told that to try and make the deal more effortless, but only to get to closing day to have the lender pull out of the deal!
Imagine you are at the lawyers to find out your deal was not approved because of something they found in your file; this happens often. This is why we ask for all the required documents upfront at Citadel Mortgages to ensure things like this do not happen at closing. We understand not all clients want to follow our award-winning process, which is OK with us; it just means we can not work together.
As an award-winning national brokerage across Canada, we have been featured in the National Post, Financial Post, Toronto Sun, Ottawa Citizen, CMP Mortgage and many more.

A Good Credit Score: You will generally need a 600 to 720 Credit score or above. Any co-borrowers, on your mortgage application, will also need good credit. Like anything else, there are exceptions to this. But the more exceptions you require, the lower your chances of getting the best rate.
Employment Tenure: If you just started your job, you may not qualify with some of the mortgage lenders. Many mortgage lenders prefer to see at least a one-year job history if you’re salaried.
Clean Credit: Lenders want to see no derogatory items on your credit report. You want to make sure that no missed mortgage payments show on your credit report as lenders will not be comfortable lending at the best mortgage rates if this is an issue on your credit report. Also one missed payment in three years might be okay; five missed payments are not, especially if they went to collections.
Provable Income: A lender will usually ask you to prove your full income with tax documents and/or employer pay stubs. This is important you make think your income is fine, but you will need a two-year history of any bonus income, commissions, tips income or part-time income in order to be able to use it as part of your mortgage application.
Reasonable Debt Ratios: If your monthly housing and payment obligations are more than 44% of your gross monthly income, you’ll seldom get the best rates. It is important to note that, your monthly housing costs (mortgage payment, property taxes, heat, and half your condo fees) cannot be more than 39% of your gross monthly income. That 39% limit usualy requires a 680+ credit score.
To qualify for the lowest mortgage rates, you’ll have to pass the federal government’s mortgage stress test. All that means is that the lender will calculate your debt ratios using an inflated interest rate. If the lender is offering you a 3.25% rate, for example, it might stress test you to see if you can afford payments at a 5.25% rate.
