In today’s market, a Canadian home seller may offer a take-back mortgage to help a potential buyer qualify for the purchase. In most cases, a take-back is used by a motivated vendor to ‘sweeten the deal’ in a slow housing market.
Basically, a take-back mortgage means that the vendor lends the buyer some of the equity in the home to help with the purchase. It is much like a second mortgage.
But if a take-back is offered, should you take it? As a vendor, should you consider it?
The answer is yes, but only if you are convinced that the deal makes good solid sense.
