Feeling Concerned about the New Mortgage Rules in
Canada? Know How to Proceed!
  • Do Not Leave Other Debts Hanging
  • In the light of new mortgage rules, you should
    never try to file your application for a home
    loan unless you have cleared all your other
    loans. The stress test is surely going to derail
    your plans if there are other outstanding loans
    showing in your report. Understand that any debt
    you already have will have a direct impact on how
    much mortgage you can get. So, be sure to check
    any outstanding loan or unpaid credit card before
    you decide to apply for a mortgage.
  • Never go ahead without checking the fine print
  • It has never been this important to check the
    fine print before finalizing your decision to
    obtain a mortgage from a lender. Do not just fall
    prey to those fascinating offers created by
    lenders in the industry. For instance, some would
    ask you to get preapproved first and then buy a
    property within 120 days of getting pre-approved
    to become 'immune' to the effects of the new
    stress test. Therefore, it is important to pay
    attention to the complete picture, especially if
    you are a move-up or repeat buyer interested in
    buying a bigger home than what you currently
    have.
  • Do Not Be Afraid of Making Adjustments
  • With new rules now in effect, you should consider
    working with a right broker and be willing to
    make certain adjustments to your plans. A good
    idea would be to delay buying for a while until
    you can build up a better down payment. If you
    cannot wait, you may have to stay content with
    whatever you can afford at the moment, which is
    likely to be less than what you might have
    obtained last year.

Tips to Remember to Help You Find the Right
Mortgage Deal in Canada
  • Do not fall prey to the offers claiming that you
    are going to get the best five-year rate. The
    reason is that after the new rules mortgage
    pricing is no longer based on the best rate quote
    only. Many other factors will now play a role
    here. Your personal situation matters the most.
    Therefore, you may want to work with the company
    that performs an in-depth assessment of your
    current circumstances and then select the best
    products for you.
  • Going long and variable is likely to help you
    over an extended period. People with over 20
    equity should consider a 30-year amortization
    mortgage to enjoy some amazing benefits. Such
    deals would have the benefits, like easier
    mortgage qualifying, more purchasing power, and
    lower payments to increase cash flow. You can
    also use this option to divert cash and use it
    for investing. However, it makes sense to work
    with an experienced mortgage broker to discuss if
    these strategies are really going to prove
    effective considering your unique circumstances.
  • Be sure to check all the details before signing
    the dotted line. In many cases, you will be able
    to save thousands ensuring that you are getting a
    mortgage with a fair prepayment penalty. It
    should also treat you nicely and fairly at
    renewal. Therefore, you should not have your
    focus only on finding the lowest rate possible
    because other details are going to matter as
    well.
  • Think twice before opting for high-ratio
    insurance. Many people make the mistake of using
    this option and end up paying more than expected.
    Keep in mind that most lenders are willing to
    offer better rates to borrowers who require
    mortgage insurance when they have less than 20
    down. It means you do not really need to purchase
    it when you have more than 20 down. But again,
    your unique circumstances can change the whole
    picture because some companies are willing to
    offer lower rates when you purchase mortgage
    insurance even with more than 20 down. Your
    mortgage broker may help you identify the most
    suitable option here.

Want to Apply for a Mortgage? Do It the Right Way
to Find the Best Deal!
  • You can do it by working with a licensed mortgage
    agent or mortgage broker. They are also known as
    mortgage consultants, mortgage planners, or
    mortgage specialists and usually help A-Class and
    B-Class customers.
  • You can also get a mortgage by working directly
    with a bank. Most banks have branches to deal
    with mortgage applications only. They usually
    facilitate A-Class borrowers with an exceptional
    credit history.
  • You can also consider getting a mortgage by
    working with some individual financial
    institutes. They are usually considered B-type
    lenders and serve mostly B-Class borrowers.
  • You can also go to private lenders and ask them
    for a loan. These lenders may serve B-Class
    borrowers.

Some Mistakes to Avoid When Looking for a Mortgage
  • Avoid selecting a collateral loan
  • The collateral mortgage may help you find a
    better rate, but you should avoid making this
    mistake when the rates' difference is
    insignificant. In the mortgage industry, you will
    find many major lenders, including some chartered
    banks trying everything to make you opt for a
    collateral mortgage. However, there is no need to
    go for it if you can find the similar rates for
    real mortgage program. Going for a collateral
    loan may be a bit riskier and expensive because
    you may have to deal with a legal fee, especially
    when you decide to switch lenders.
  • Avoid a broker with very high rates
  • It is natural that people avoid brokers that may
    offer very high rates. However, the real issue is
    that many brokers would offer a high rate first
    but they would later make you use their "match
    policy" to find a cheaper deal. Such behavior
    suggests that you are working with an
    unscrupulous agent who is more concerned about
    getting more profits. The problem is that they
    make you find a deal yourself and offer you to
    match it themselves.
  • Do not always trust big banks for loans
  • Many people think that since they have a good
    credit score, they are likely to get a better
    deal from big banks only. The truth is that you
    should still consider shopping around and never
    stop checking what small lenders have to offer.
    An important thing to understand is that mortgage
    specialists working in the banks usually do not
    require any license. It means that if something
    goes wrong, you will not have any place to file a
    complaint. Those licensed mortgage brokers are
    extremely careful about offering what they
    promise or else their license will be at stake.
    In Ontario, Canada, there are provincial
    government organizations taking care of all
    licensed agents and brokers, so you can file a
    complaint with them in case something is not as
    per your expectations.
