With the higher interest rate environment we are currently in, a solution to lowering your monthly mortgage payment could be extending your amortization. Extending your amortization will stretch your mortgage repayment schedule out, which can potentially lower your monthly payment.

Finding a co-signer for your mortgage is a great solution, but not everyone is comfortable taking on that responsibility. Below are three alternatives to having a co-signer on your mortgage:

1. Receiving a gifted down payment. Depending on the amount, a gifted down payment might be exactly what is needed to help qualify for a mortgage without needing a co-signer.

2. Getting a joint mortgage. Joint mortgages are popular with parents helping their children buy a first home. They give both parties equal responsibility to make payments. In return, all parties get equal ownership of the home.

3. Using buyer assistance programs like the First Time Home Buyers Incentive, the Home Buyers’ Plan, or the First Home Savings Account.

It is a common misconception that you need to put down 20% of the home’s purchase price as a down payment. While 20% down allows you to avoid mortgage loan insurance, many lenders offer mortgage programs with lower down payment options.

If your home will be owner-occupied, then you need 5% down for the first $500,000 of the purchase price, and 10% for any amount over $500,000 up to $999,999. If the purchase price is $1,000,000 or more, the minimum down payment is 20%.

If you have any questions about the down payment options available to you and how to use them, reach out. I’m here to help, and my services are free.

If your mortgage is coming up for renewal, you must prepare for higher rates. It is not about panicking; it’s about being prudent. Here are three strategies you can implement to get ready:

1. Take advantage of your prepayment privileges and increase your payment amount. You’ll pay down more principal and be accustomed to paying a higher amount at renewal.

2. Watch your bad debt. Be cautious about any credit card or high-interest debt.

3. If you are considering moving to a new home, get a pre-approval to protect you while shopping around. Consider not borrowing the maximum amount your lender will allow.

The best thing to do is get advice early. Reach out, and let's determine your best personal strategies to prepare.

Mortgage rates can be misleading. The lowest rates are not always available and may not apply to situations such as conventional mortgages, refinances, 30-year amortizations, or rental properties.

Online rate advertisements often dangle enticing rates, but upon closer examination of the fine print, many individuals may discover that they do not actually meet the qualifications for those rates. Plus, these advertisements frequently come with restrictions that could prove costly for homeowners in the long term.

If you come across an online rate advertisement, it's essential to do your research. However, it is equally important to contact me for a discussion. As your Mortgage Broker, my role is to comprehend your unique circumstances and advocate for your best interests.
