Are The New Mortgage Rules a Good or Bad Thing for First-Time Home Buyers?
Some of you may know that in July of this year major changes to the rules regarding Canadian mortgages were put into effect by the Canadian government. These new policies included a decrease in the maximum amortization period from 30 years to 25 years for mortgages insured by the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, that lenders could allow home equity loans for up to 80% of a property’s value (reduced from 85% previously) and that homes worth more than 1 million dollars were no longer eligible for government insured (CMHC) mortgages (for example, anyone wanting to buy a home worth more than $1 million must now have a down payment of at least $200,000).
For first-time buyers the biggest change was the shortening of the maximum amortization period from 30 to 25 years. Now, is that necessarily a bad thing? Perhaps not as this will force borrowers to pay back their debt sooner, thereby ultimately reducing the amount of interest they'll pay over the life of the loan, saving them thousands of dollars in interest costs over the life of the mortgage. However, the flip side of the coin is that the borrower’s mortgage payments will be larger as more debt gets paid back with each payment.
Some experts say that the new rules may help prevent first-time buyers from stretching themselves too thin, will allow them to build equity in their home faster and become mortgage-free sooner.
There is a great article in The Star which addresses the pros and cons of the new mortgage rules in Canada for first-time home buyers, to read the article click here.
Hope all of you first-time buyers find this article interesting and informative. If you have any questions about how the new rules may affect your new home purchase, please don’t hesitate to give us a call – we are here to help!

Good Mortgage Advice: Planning Ahead
Do you ever think about things you can do now to help protect yourself against the inability to pay your mortgage in case of financial issues in the future? The CMHC (Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation) has posted an article on their website entitled “Mortgage Planning Tips” giving some great information about how you can be proactive now to possibly prevent damaging financial hardship in the future.
It is always wise not to borrow the maximum amount you have been approved for when it comes to a mortgage. Borrowing the maximum amount you can afford now may not allow you to comfortably cope with unexpected changes in your income or unforeseen expenses in the future.
It is a great idea to sit down with your financial lender to calculate how your monthly mortgage payment would change if the interest rates were to increase (even 1 - 2%) - Could you still comfortably pay your monthly mortgage if this increase should occur? – a very good question to ask yourself BEFORE “signing on the dotted line”.
There are ways to pay off your mortgage sooner in order to have more financial freedom in the future – this could include making weekly or biweekly payments, saving to make a lump sum payment toward the principle and/or increasing your payment a little bit every month. Talk with your financial lender about the options they offer to pay off your mortgage faster.
If you reach a point that you are unable to make your monthly mortgage payments, speak with you lender – they may be able to help you as they may offer ways to help you deal with temporary financial obstacles – Remember, the worst thing you can do is sit back and not do anything and just hope the problem will go away!
