Mortgage qualifier
How much can I borrow?
A quick estimate using Canada's stress test and lender debt limits. I can give you an exact answer.
Estimate only, not a mortgage approval. Stress test at the higher of 5.25% or your rate plus 2%, debt limits of 39% and 44%, and about $100 a month for heating. Lenders also look at credit, income proof and the property.
Less than 20% down?
CMHC mortgage insurance calculator
With under 20% down, your mortgage needs default insurance from CMHC, Sagen or Canada Guaranty. See the minimum down payment and what the premium adds to your mortgage.
Estimate using CMHC's standard premium rates (4.00% at 5-9.99% down, 3.10% at 10-14.99%, 2.80% at 15-19.99%, plus 0.20% for a 30-year amortization). Insured mortgages are available on homes under $1.5 million. BC charges no PST on the premium.
