An illustration, not financial advice. The 4.25% rate is an example, not a quote. Below 20% down the mortgage must be insured, and the premium is added to the loan; Ontario also charges 8% sales tax on that premium at closing. The minimum down payment is 5% of the first $500,000 and 10% of the rest; homes of $1.5 million or more can’t be insured and need 20%. A 30-year amortization on an insured mortgage is only open to first-time buyers and new builds. Hydro, home insurance and closing costs are not included.
