Case Study
Refinancing a Commercial Property in Ontario
The Goal
A commercial property owner in Vaughan wanted to refinance their retail plaza, valued at $4,200,000, to access equity for renovations and future investments. They had an existing mortgage of $2,500,000 but wanted to increase their financing to $3,150,000, keeping the Loan-to-Value (LTV) under 75%.
The Challenges
High-Interest Existing Loan → Current mortgage at 7.25% with a private lender
Cash Flow Strain → Monthly payments were limiting reinvestment into the property
Debt Service Ratios → Required a lender that accepted rental income projections for qualification
Credit Scores → Primary applicant: 710, Co-applicant: 675


The Solution
Secured a refinanced commercial mortgage at 6.10% (5-year fixed) with a 25-year amortization
Increased loan amount to $3,150,000, freeing up $650,000 in equity
Used projected rental income ($290K/year) to qualify for better terms
Reduced monthly mortgage payments by $2,800 to improve cash flow
The Outcome
New Mortgage Amount:
$3,150,000 @ 6.10% (5-year fixed)
New Monthly Payment:
~$19,700 (vs. $22,500 previously)
LTV After Refinancing:
75%
Approved in 4 weeks
