Where do you fit?
First home
Buying a first property in Sept-Îles, or anywhere in Côte-Nord: what you can borrow, what the down payment has to be, and the transfer duty the city charges.
Buying a first homeRenewal
Your lender’s renewal letter is an offer, not the offer. I compare it against what other lenders will do on your balance.
Compare my renewalRefinancing
Pulling equity out of a Sept-Îles property to consolidate debt or fund renovations, with the penalty and the closing costs on the table before you commit.
Frame a refinancingPlex and rental
Two units or more in Sept-Îles or elsewhere in the Sept-Rivières MRC: the down payment rises, leases are required, and only part of the rent counts toward your capacity.
Rental property fileSelf-employed
Self-employed in Côte-Nord: two years of notices of assessment, and lenders that know how to read a T2125.
Self-employed income
What the lender asks for, by property type.
- Recent developmentIncome, assets, debts. The simple case.
- PlexLeases, rental income statement, higher down payment from two units up.
- Well and septicWater potability test, septic compliance. What most often holds these files up.
How it works in Sept-Îles.
- 01The callFifteen to thirty minutes, by phone or video. You describe the Sept-Îles project and the date that matters. No document needed yet.
- 02The fileI gather your records and calculate your ratios before your name goes anywhere. A refused application leaves a mark on your credit file.
- 03The shoppingYour file goes to the lenders whose criteria fit, in parallel. You see every offer compared on the same basis.
- 04The decisionYours, with each offer’s rate, penalty, prepayment privileges and portability side by side.
- 05ClosingAt your notary in Sept-Îles. I follow the lender conditions through to funding.
Before you call.
- My bank already gave me a rate.Good, bring it. A posted rate is a starting point, and your bank shows you its own products only. If it is still the best offer after comparison, stay: the numbers will tell you.
- You have no office in Sept-Îles.No, and it changes nothing about lender access. Call, video, documents online, signature at your notary. The lenders read a file, not a postal code.
- Will this hurt my credit score?I calculate your ratios before submitting anything, so a refusal does not land on your file. One application, to the lenders whose criteria fit.
- I am just starting to look.That is the right time. A pre-approval costs nothing, commits you to nothing, and tells you your real ceiling before you fall in love with a property above it.
What I cost you.
On an ordinary residential mortgage in Sept-Îles (purchase, renewal, refinancing, one to four units), the lender that funds the mortgage pays me. You get no invoice for the meetings, the file, the comparisons or the follow-ups. The amount can vary from one lender or product to another; I disclose what applies to your file before you accept an offer. How I am paid, in detail
Run your own numbers first.
Transfer duty in Sept-Îles
- $350,000 purchase≈ $3,360
- $500,000 purchase≈ $5,610
In Sept-Îles, the transfer duty, the “welcome tax”, is calculated in brackets on the higher of the price paid and the standardized municipal assessment. With Quebec’s base schedule for 2026 (0.5% up to $62,900, 1% up to $315,000, 1.5% above), a $350,000 purchase comes to about $3,360 and a $500,000 purchase to about $5,610. Some cities add higher brackets above $500,000: check Sept-Îles’s schedule before setting your reserve.
The bill arrives by mail weeks or months after closing. It does not go through the notary and cannot be financed in the mortgage: keep the amount in your reserve after the purchase. For your price, use the purchase costs tool.
Sept-Îles: common questions
How do we work together if you’re not based in Sept-Îles?
The same way I work with clients anywhere in Quebec: remotely, with documents online and the signature at your own notary. Reach me through the contact page.
Should I keep the financing condition in my offer?
Yes, until final approval is in writing. It’s your only way out if the lender comes back with a no, or with conditions you can’t meet.
Am I obliged to renew with my current lender?
No. A renewal is a negotiating moment, not a formality. The letter you receive is one proposal among several that are possible.
What should I do first?
Gather your income proof and three months of bank statements. Then we talk: that’s where the file takes shape.
How long does it take?
A pre-approval can happen within days if your documents are ready. Final approval depends on the lender and the appraisal, and has to be confirmed file by file.
Does a pre-approval protect me?
Partly. It locks a rate for a set period and confirms an order of magnitude, but the building you choose still has to clear the lender’s review.
