We know hard times sometimes fall on homeowners. MCAP Payment Assistance can help you get through them.

Flexible options to help you make your mortgage payments

MCAP offers short-term assistance to help our homeowners weather challenging financial times. There is no expectation to pay back funds provided by MCAP for payment assistance immediately and payment assistance won't affect your credit score. Different situations require different solutions. That’s why we’ve come up with various assistance options to suit your needs.

Please note the below options are subject to qualification and approval.

Interest Only Payments

Reduce your payments by paying just the interest portion of your mortgage payment along with any tax, Home Warranty or Mortgage Life/ Disability insurance amounts.

Things to keep in mind:

  • You will not be paying down the principal portion of your mortgage
  • As such, the amortization period remaining on your mortgage will increase

Increased Amortization

The amortization of your mortgage is the length of time it will take you pay off your mortgage in full. By increasing it, the principal portion of your mortgage decreases accordingly, reducing your mortgage payments over a certain period of time.

Things to keep in mind:

  • By increasing the amortization period remaining on your mortgage, you will be increasing your timeline to pay it off in full

Mortgage Deferral

A mortgage deferral is when you opt to defer the principal and interest portion of your regular mortgage payment. Any property taxes and payments for other products would still be collected.

Things to keep in mind:

  • The interest you would have paid during the deferral period will be added to your outstanding mortgage balance
  • The principal amount of your outstanding balance remains the same
