VANCOUVER, May 12, 2017 /CNW/ - Dominion Lending Centres President and Chief Executive Officer, Gary Mauris, has elaborated on his previous statement regarding the recent developments surrounding Home Capital Group:
"As Canada's number one mortgage originator, with 700 offices across Canada and $38 Billion in mortgage loan volume in the past year, the Dominion Lending Centres Group of Companies has worked, since 2006, with most of Canada's largest banks, trust companies and credit unions - including numerous alternative lending companies like Home Capital Group - in order to provide custom mortgage solutions for our clients.
Home Capital Group has been a valuable partner to Dominion Lending Centres Group of Companies, and we originate more than 4,000 mortgage loans each year with the company. Home Capital and other alternative lenders such as Equitable Bank provide a valuable solution for many Canadian families seeking mortgage financing. The vast majority of these loans are of high quality, and made for people that just miss the qualifying thresholds of Canada's largest lenders, often self employed individuals and families. Home Capital Group's average loan to value in their portfolio is under 75%, and their average Beacon score on their portfolio is in the area of 675.
Home Capital underwriting standard continue to be prudent and thorough, and our experience is that their mortgage portfolio's continue to perform well, as evidenced by their low defaults and 90 day arrears.
Given the recent news that Home Capital Group will be implementing significant policy changes to ensure even more strict lending criteria, Dominion Lending Centres is standing by Home Capital, and will continue to recommend their mortgage solutions to our clients.
We will continue to work with them as they navigate these challenges and we are particularly pleased to see recent changes to the Board of Directors of Home Capital Group. We have full confidence that under new leadership, Home Capital Group will develop additional sources of funding and will continue serving Canadians with unique mortgage solutions."
