Are you buying your first house this year? If the answer is yes, you should explore our government’s programs to see if they can provide assistance.
There are 2 that may benefit you:
1)First-Time Home Buyer Incentive (FTHBI): This national program helps first-time homebuyers with a shared-equity mortgage, where the government contributes 5% or 10% of the home’s purchase price to lower your monthly payments.
2)Home Buyers’ Plan (HBP): You can withdraw up to $35,000 from your RRSP for a down payment, tax-free, as long as you repay it within 15 years.

Did you know a large down payment doesn’t guarantee a mortgage approval?
Lenders still have to look at multiple factors such as:
- Credit score
- Employment
- Assets
- Debt-to-Cash ratio
A down payment is only a portion of what you need for a mortgage. If you are wondering if you will be approved, contact me at Raeann@MortgageEngineer.ca today.

Spring is in the air, and so is the housing market!

If knowing what you can afford and being organized, confident and prepared sounds appealing to you, give me a call @ 780-914-2620.

When buying a home you may hear your realtor talk about comparables. Just incase you are not 100% sure what it means, here is the rundown.
One of the ways appraisers calculate what a house is worth, is by comparing it to subject properties to get a more accurate value.
One way they do this, is they see what similar homes in the same type of neighbourhoods have sold for.

Amortization is spreading out loan payments over time. These payments cover both the principal and the interest.
- The longer the amortization, the smaller the payments, but the more interest you pay.
- The shorter the amortization, the larger the payments, but you save money on interest.

The first step in purchasing a new home or rental property is getting a mortgage pre-approval. Being pre-approved makes your shopping experience that much easier because you’ll be able to narrow down your search to what you can afford and already have an idea of what it will cost you monthly.
Getting a mortgage pre-approval is FREE and easy. Just fill out a mortgage application and let me take care of the rest. I will go to work constructing your unique mortgage blueprint, and then I’ll go through my lender network and secure you the best rate for a mortgage product that meets your needs.
I am excited to be part of your journey towards achieving your financial and homeownership goals through your mortgage.

Attention first-time home buyers!
it is important to understand how to budget for your home expenses.
Remember, it’s not just you who needs to be on top of your finances. Lenders also play a crucial role in ensuring you have the financial stability to cover all these expenses before approving a home loan.
Here is a breakdown of the numbers for you so you can plan accordingly:
HOUSING = 35% - This includes mortgage payments, property tax, utilities etc.
TRANSIT = 15% - Car payments, bus passes, maintenance, etc.
DEBT = 15% - Credit cards, loans, lines of credit, etc.
SAVINGS = 10% - Long-term savings for retirement
LIFE = 25% - Food, vacations, childcare, medical care, fun, etc.
If you would like to book a free consultation to determine how much of a mortgage you can be approved for with your income and monthly expenses, contact me today.
