Overview

The CMLS Alternative Solutions provides a flexible approach to lending, offering a lower cost alternative to ‘full private’ lenders for borrowers that don’t quite qualify for ‘b’ mortgage lenders. It allows fully self-declared income, requiring only reasonable proof like recent bank statements, but not tax documents. Offering flexibility, it features options like interest-only payments or up to 40-year amortization. The process is efficient, with a possibility of closing in as quick as 5 business days.
