taking back control of your expenses

Struggling with loans?

Get a fresh start with assisted sales. We can help you sell your home or vehicle at the best possible price on the market.

Benefits of Assisted Sales

 

  • You get the best possible price on the market.
  • We will help you deal with any shortfall through a manageable repayment plan. 

 

Drawbacks of Assisted Sales

 

  • You may have to pay a shortfall if you could not sell your vehicle or property at a price that is enough to settle your loan. By extending your repayment term, you will pay more interest in the long run. But remember: you can always pay extra in future when your finances are back on track

  • We will appoint the transfer attorneys and manage the transfer and conveyancing process on your behalf. Should an offer price be agreed on, you will be liable for these costs.
  • At our discretion, we offer debt relief on your shortfall amount to help you with a fresh start. We will forgive 50% of any shortfall that exists after the sale of your home. The remaining 50%  can be paid off interest-free over 5 to 10 years.

Process after we've received your email

 

We will compare the offers that you have received with the expected selling price of the vehicle on a public auction as well as historical assisted sales. This is to ensure that the offers are in line with what the vehicle could sell for at a public auction. 

  • If we believe that the vehicle may sell for significantly more at a public auction, we may recommend that you bring the vehicle to us to be placed on auction (a higher auction price is not guaranteed). 
  • We will inform you and the dealer or buyer once we have finalised and approved the offer. 
  • You can then make arrangements for the delivery of the vehicle to the dealer or buyer and the payment of the offer to MFC.

The entire assisted-sales approval process usually takes between 7 and 10 working days

For your security we recommend that if you are selling the vehicle to a private buyer or non-MFC approved dealer, make sure that we have received the payment before you release the vehicle.
