Private Mortgages in Milton
Yes, we lend in Milton. First and second mortgages on houses, townhomes and condos, decided on the equity in the property and a clear exit — not on a credit score or a paystub.
Stonefield Capital is an FSRA-licensed private mortgage lender providing first and second mortgages on residential property in Milton, Ontario. Approval is based on the equity in the property and a clear exit strategy rather than credit score or income documents. Most files close without a formal appraisal, commitments are issued the same day, and funding can happen in as little as 48 hours. Borrowers are matched with a Stonefield-approved mortgage broker; brokers submit deals directly.
How a private mortgage works in Milton
A private mortgage is a short-term loan secured against your property, funded by a private lender instead of a bank. It exists for the situations a bank's checklist can't handle: a closing date the bank won't meet, income that doesn't fit the form, a credit score that slipped, a property the bank won't touch, or a power of sale that has to be stopped this month. The loan is a bridge, typically 1 to 12 months, interest-only, with a planned way out.
Stonefield underwrites three things: the equity in the property, whether it can be sold in the Milton market if it came to that, and the exit — a refinance back to a bank, a sale, or a defined payout. We run our own comparable-sales analysis rather than waiting for an appraisal, so a Milton file usually gets a commitment the same day it arrives, and if an appraisal is ever needed you hear it in the first response, never at closing.
Pricing is set by loan-to-value and lien position. First mortgages currently start from 7.99% and second mortgages from 9.49%; the full ladder is on our rate page and it updates whenever our pricing does.
The Milton picture
Milton grew faster than almost any town in Canada over the last twenty years, so most of its housing is newer detached and townhouse stock in Dempsey, Beaty, Clarke, Scott and Willmott, around a historic Old Milton core. Equity has built quickly for owners who bought early.
Milton files are often young families consolidating debt, self-employed borrowers, and bridge loans for a move within Halton.
Milton is inside the GTA
In the GTA we lend up to 70% loan-to-value on residential property, and our sharpest-priced programme, Stonefield Ace, applies to first mortgages here: GTA-only, first mortgages from $200,000, priced below our Flex ladder for files with an approved appraisal and a 600+ beacon. Everything that doesn't fit Ace goes through Stonefield Flex: firsts and seconds, no minimum credit score, usually no appraisal.
Second mortgages in Milton
A second mortgage sits behind your existing first mortgage and lets you borrow against the equity you've built without breaking the first. In Milton this is the most common way homeowners consolidate high-interest debt, clear CRA or property-tax arrears, fund renovations, or pull working capital out of the house. The first mortgage stays exactly as it is.
We fund seconds in Milton the same way we fund firsts: on combined loan-to-value and a credible exit. A bank decline for credit or income reasons doesn't stop a second mortgage here, because we aren't underwriting your credit. If the combined LTV runs high, a second Ontario property can be added as collateral to bring it into range.

What we lend on in Milton
Equity and exit, not credit score
No minimum beacon. Approval turns on the equity available and a realistic exit. A Notice of Assessment is always requested to confirm there are no CRA arrears ahead of the mortgage.
Usually no appraisal
We run comparable sales in Milton ourselves at submission, saving the fee and several days. If a report is needed, you hear it in the first response.
Same-day commitments
A commitment the day the file arrives in most cases, and funding in as little as 48 hours once a lawyer is ready. Legal preparation, not underwriting, is the usual bottleneck.
