🏡How YOU can capitalise on the slow market end to 2025:

It’s no secret the housing market had a slow end to 2025. Sales dipped, prices softened, and a lot of buyers hit pause.

However here is what most people are missing

The slowdown is not a crash, it’s a reset.

Inventory is still below long-term averages, interest rates have already come down, and CREA is clear: spring demand is expected to rebound, powered by years of pent-up buyers who’ve been waiting on sidelines like yourself.

In other words, it’s the calm before the storm, just not for long.

Prices have eased in many regions, especially condos and townhomes, sellers are more flexible than they’ve been in years, and conditions are about as balanced as we’ve seen in a long time.

HISTORICALLY, this is when smart buyers move:
✅ Less competition
✅ More negotiating power
✅ Better selection
✅ Before spring demand heats things back up.

Waiting for the ‘perfect’ moment usually means paying more later.

If you’re planning on buying in 2026, don’t get caught in the storm, act now, let’s talk.

And as always, all glory to God.

🏡 Putting Less Than 20% Down — What You Should Know

Putting less than 20% down is very common in Quebec, especially for first-time buyers, and it can be a smart move depending on your situation.

✔ Lower Interest Rates
The advantage to having an insured mortgage are the lower interest rates offered due to being a lower risk to the lender.

✔ Lower upfront cash required
With a smaller down payment, you keep more cash available for closing costs, furniture, renovations, or an emergency fund.

✔ Buy Sooner
You can get started quickly and begin to grow your new asset, or future home.

✔ Ideal for first-time buyers
This option is ideal for buyers with strong income who don’t want to wait on the sidelines and are ready to start building equity now.

✔ Mortgage insurance is required
With less than 20% down, mortgage insurance makes homeownership possible sooner, with the premium conveniently added to your mortgage

✖ Higher monthly payments
Because the loan amount is higher (and includes insurance), monthly payments are usually higher compared to a 20%+ down payment.

✖ Less equity at the beginning
You start with less ownership in the property, which can limit refinancing or equity access in the short term.

💡 Bottom line:
Less than 20% down isn’t a bad choice — it’s a strategy. For many buyers, it’s the fastest and most realistic way to become a homeowner.

🏡 DOWNPAYING 20% OR MORE - WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW

A downpayment of 20% or more can be a great strategy, especially if you’re financially comfortable and thinking long-term.

✅ NO MORTGAGE INSURANCE REQUIRED
• With 20%+ down, you avoid CMHC/Sagen/Canada Guarantee insurance altogether, which will save you thousands of dollars over the life of your mortgage.

✅ LOWER MONTHLY PAYMENTS
• Because you are borrowing less, your monthly mortgage payment is lower, which can improve your cash flow and make budgeting easier.

✅ MORE EQUITY FROM DAY 1
• You start off in a stronger equity position in your home, which can be helpful if you plan to refinance, access a Home Equity Line of Credit(HELOC), or upgrade in the future.

✅ MORE FLEXIBILITY
• A higher downpayment often gives you more options when it comes to refinancing, rental properties, or structuring your mortgage to fit long-term goals.

❌ REQUIRES MORE CASH UPFRONT
• The biggest drawback is needing a large amount of savings right away, which isn’t always realistic or ideal for everyone.

❌MAY DELAY YOUR PURCHASE
• Waiting to reach 20% could mean missing opportunities in the market or continuing to pay rent while you save.

❌TIES UP CAPITAL
• That cash could potentially be used for renovations, investments, or as a financial safety cushion instead of being locked into the property.

💡 BOTTOM LINE:
20% down isn’t always “better” - it’s about choosing what works best for your financial needs and future plans.
