How it works

We begin by developing a clear picture of your project goals, business vision and ambitions. Our team of analysts then does a deep dive into project economics to build proforma financial projections and validate budgets – work that is essential to a successful insured underwriting. Using our extensive knowledge of CMHC’s qualification requirements, we select the appropriate program for your mortgage, liaise with the National Housing Agency through to approval, fund the mortgage and provide lifecycle asset management services to ensure you meet loan requirements, including those related to affordable housing initiatives.

Why it's better

No one understands and appreciates CMHC’s programs and approval processes better than our team. As a full-service lender, we arrange billions of dollars worth of multi-unit residential financings every year. These experiences, combined with our intimate knowledge of every multi-unit residential real estate market in Canada, enable us to direct you to the best insurance program, expertly address CMHC’s due diligence needs and quickly position you for a First National financing that achieves the highest practical loan amount and best features. Speak to your First National advisor for details.

Where it applies

First National Insured Lending Solutions works well on all forms of multi-unit residential real estate – rental apartments, seniors’ residences, retirement properties and student housing. And, it is equally valuable for construction projects and term mortgages for periods of 10 or five years.
