Why Sliding Scales are used by banks for homes over a million dollars
Sliding scales are used by banks to help mitigate their exposure on high end homes over $750,000. Since Vancouver BC offers some of the highest home prices in areas like Point Grey, West Vancouver, Kitsilano, Whistler and White Rock, when the real estate market has a corrections these home values pose a greater risk to banks do to marketability in downward markets. -
How sliding scale works
Different banks offer up different ranges for their sliding scales and dealing with a mortgage broker who can access and understand these different ranges will go a long way to helping you find the best sliding scale for your mortgage financing. One of the highest levels achieved by Sliding Scales is 80% of $750,000 and 60% of the remaining split. This is where for example you have a home worth $2,000,000 the bank will lend 80% X $750,000=$600,000 & 60% X $1,250,000=$750,000. The total mortgage amount a well qualified home buyer will qualify for is $1,350,000 meaning the down payment on a $2,000,000 home is $650,000. A client may qualify to top up the difference of the sliding scale by way of 2nd Second Mortgage. The rates are going to be higher than your 1st mortgage and the terms will be more restrictive. -
Do all Banks offer Sliding Scales?
Not all banks offer sliding scales or even lend on homes over a million dollars yet there are lenders that do not have a maximum mortgage amount. Some banks will only lend on 80% of $500,000 and others will require hiratio insurance no matter what size of mortgage it is. Your best bet is to have your Vancouver BC Mortgage Broker process your application for best results.
