Is Mandate National Mortgage a good fit for your file?
Honest take from thousands of funded files. We send the right file to the right lender — not the loudest one.
Strong fit for
- ✓Short-term bridge (6-18 months) while we map an A or alt-A exit
- ✓CRA debt / writ / lien that must be paid before a bank will fund
- ✓Power-of-sale rescues with equity but no income proof
- ✓Equity take-out where banks decline due to credit or income
Probably not the right fit if
- !Borrowers without a clear exit plan to A or alt-A
- !Files where the equity cushion is thin (under 25% home equity)
- !Long-term holds — private is bridge debt, not a 5-year solution
