Hi Everyone!
I currently have a deal on the table where the owner is willing to do a VTB to cover the downpayment for me on a multi residential building. The property is in Ontario. I'm hoping to get some advice from here on how I could close this deal with a 1st mortgage and have a 2nd on it as the downpayment.
Has anyone here done this in Canada before on a commercial property?
Thank you and really appreciate this community!

I did this on a Multi-residential property (5 Plex). The owner did a VTB for 20% and the mortgage company approved the first at 80% with the VTB as a 2nd.
