How many residential mortgages can I have?

The number of mortgages you can have is unlimited. Rather, people are constrained by their capacity to manage several mortgages or their financial status. First and second mortgages are two mortgages that are typically held concurrently on a same property.

What is a second mortgage Canada?

Second mortgage is a second loan or funding you take on your residential property. Interest rates on second mortgages are usually higher than first mortgages and you need to pay both your mortgages at the same time.

What is a conventional mortgage Canada?

A conventional mortgage in Canada is a loan where the down payment is at least 20% of the property's purchase price. This means that the loan amount is 80% or less of the property's value.

How long can you mortgage a home in Canada?

In Canada, you can mortgage a home for 25 years. If you are a first-time buyer or purchasing a new build you can mortgage it for 30 years. These rules took effect on December 15, 2024.

Can I buy a home with less than a 20% down payment?

The minimum amount you need for your down payment depends on the purchase price of the home. If your down payment is less than 20% of the price of your home, you'll typically need to buy mortgage loan insurance. If you're self-employed or have a poor credit history, your lender may require a larger down payment.

Should I choose a fixed rate or variable rate mortgage?

Interest rates either rise or fall. But a study suggests that homeowners with a variable mortgage fair better than a fixed rate one.

Professional and efficient service from Satbir. I previously made face to face appointments to discuss mortgage details but given the time constraints was recommended to sort via telephone consultations. No regrets and easier all round. Thanks Satbir.
