What do I need to know about purchasing a home?

Mortgage Options

There are two options that lenders use to calculate interest rates, Fixed and Variable.

Fixed Rates work by keeping the interest rate the same for a period of time. These are best if you want certainty over how much your mortgage is likely cost every month.

Variable Rates fluctuate depending on what’s happening with the economy, as they generally move up and down based on the Bank of Canada Policy Rate. When rates go up your monthly payments rise accordingly, while if they fall your mortgage gets cheaper.

Amortization and Mortgage Terms

Amortization is the length of time it takes for you to pay off the full amount of your mortgage.

In order to pay off your mortgage, you must agree on what are called Mortgage Terms. Everything your mortgage contract outlines, including rates, type and payments, make up your Mortgage Terms.

These terms need to be renewed, so it usually takes multiple terms to fulfill your amortization agreement.

Mortgage Types

There are two types of mortgages that you can get – Open and Closed.

With an Open mortgage, you can pay extra money (without any penalties) in order to pay off the balance of your mortgage quicker, as well as the ability to renegotiate your Term before it is up.

A Closed mortgage limits the amount of extra money you can pay on top of your usual payments (without a penalty) but is great for budgeting. Your payment never changes, and it is usually at a better interest rate than an Open mortgage.

If this sounds complicated don’t worry, the experts at Canadalend can explain it all – in simple and clear terms – over a free consultation.

Down Payment and Other Costs

To avoid extra insurance costs from the CMHC, one should have a down-payment of at least 20% of the appraised value of the home. Not only will the mortgage amount be smaller, but your terms tend to be more favorable as well.

It might take a little longer to save, but in the end, you will save thousands of dollars. These savings can put towards covering the Closing Costs as well as the Land Transfer Tax that is necessary to finalize your home purchase.
