Did you know...........Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland has announced changes to mortgage rules she says are aimed at helping more Canadians to purchase their first home.
"It is going to put the dream of home ownership in reach for more young Canadians," Freeland told reporters Monday, announcing changes she said will come into force in December.
The price cap for insured mortgages will be boosted for the first time since 2012, moving to $1.5 million from $1 million, to allow more people to qualify for a mortgage with less than a 20 per cent down payment.
Thought I'd take a minute to let you know how these data points can be helpful while looking to buy or invest in your home.
Interested in having an open discussion on this, sometime soon?
