What you need to supply to the lender: a) Income Confirmation For salaried individuals: letter of employment and your most recent pay stub. b) Down Payment Confirmation The lender will require that you prove the source of your down payment. You will have to send in bank statements, statements showing RRSPs, stocks etc. You must show a three-month history of your accounts. If there are any large lump-sum deposits, you are likely to be asked to show where the deposit originated. For mortgages where your down payment is less than 20% of the purchase price, you will also be asked to demonstrate that you have access to 1.5% of the purchase price in your bank account. You must be able to show this through a credit card, line of credit, gift from family or savings in case closing costs run higher than expected. c) Contract of Purchase and Sale This is a copy of the accepted offer of the home you intend to purchase and a copy of the MLS listing sheet.

Types
of
Mortgages
Mortgages
can
be
a
confusing
subject.
Buying
or
s elling
a
home
is
an
emotional
d ecision
and
can
b e
very
stressful.
As
a
mortgage
expert,
I
will
take
the
confusion
out
of
mortgages
and
make
the
process
as
smooth
as
possible.
In
Canada,
there
are
two
major
categories
that
mortgages
fall
into,
either
closed
or
open.
Most
mortgages
are
closed,
meaning
that
you
cant
pay
out
the
mortgage
in
full
without
paying
a
penalty
to
the
lender.
You
can,
however,
often
make
lump
sum
or
extra
payments
each
year.
An
open
mortgage
allows
you
to
pay
out
the
mortgage
anytime
without
penalty.
But
you
typically
pay
a
higher
rate
than
when
opting
for
the
same
closed
version.
Open
mortgages
may
have
an
administration
fee
that
is
higher
than
a
closed
mortgage
if
you
do,
in
fact,
decide
to
fully
pay
off
the
mortgage.
This
is
partly
why
it
is
so
important
to
read
the
fine
print
and
ask
about
these
charges.
In
most
cases,
its
b etter
to
take
the
closed
product
if
you
do
not
intend
to
fully
pay
out
the
mortgage
in
a
short
p eriod
of
time.
Closed
mortgages
are
offered
in
terms
s tarting
at
s ix
months.
The
interest
rate
is
fixed
during
that
term.
(The
term
should
not
be
confused
with
the
amortization.
Amortization
is
the
time
period
it
would
take
to
fully
pay
off
the
mortgage
by
making
regular
payments.)
Variable-rate
mortgages,
on
the
other
hand,
have
a
rate
that
floats
with
the
prime
rate
and
are
often
closed
mortgages.
Let
me
h elp
you
make
one
of
the
b iggest
d ecisions
in
your
life
by
providing
options
and
advising
you
on
the
best
scenario
for
your
specific
n eeds.

Closing
Costs
The
following
is
a
list
that
will
h elp
to
assist
you
in
calculating
your
true
costs
in
p urchasing
your
n ew
home:
a) Property
Transfer
Tax
This
is
a
tax
that
is
charged
whenever
a
property
is
purchased.
The
tax
will
vary
from
jurisdiction
to
jurisdiction,
but
I
can
h elp
with
the
calculation.
b) GST/HST
Tax
is
only
charged
on
n ew
homes,
and
does
not
affect
homes
priced
at
less
than
$400,000.
Even
h omes
that
exceed
the
price
threshold
are
only
taxed
on
the
portion
that
exceeds
$400,000.
Certain
conditions
may
apply.
Please
contact
you
lawyer/notary
for
more
detailed
information.
c) Legal
F ees
Your
lawyer
or
notary
will
charge
you
a
fee
for
drawing
up
the
mortgage
and
conveyance
of
title.
The
a mount
of
the
fee
will
d epend
on
the
individual
that
you
use.
The
typical
cost
is
$800-$1,000.
d) Survey
If
you
are
purchasing
a
s ingle-family
h ome,
you
will
n eed
to
give
your
lender
a
survey
certificate
showing
where
the
property
sits
within
the
property
lines.
S ome
exceptions
are
made,
however,
on
low
loan-to-value
d eals
and
a creage
properties.
A
survey
will
cost
approximately
$300-$350,
but
the
lender
will
often
accept
a
copy
of
an
existing
survey.

Realtors
Your
realtor
is
an
integral
part
of
your
team.
Your
realtor
can
give
you
access
to
properties
that
never
make
it
to
the
MLS
website.
Many
properties
are
sold
in
a
matter
of
days,
and
it
can
often
take
longer
to
make
it
through
the
MLS
process.
Realtors
gain
access
to
information
about
homes
that
may
come
on
the
market
before
any
listing
is
s igned.
More
important,
your
realtor
can
tell
you
how
to
b e
successful
in
your
b id
for
a
d esired
property.
In
todays
competitive
real
estate
market,
its
very
difficult
to
acquire
any
property
without
the
h elp
of
a
real
estate
professional.
I
have
developed
relationships
with
numerous
realtors
and
can
recommend
a
qualified
realtor
to
h elp
you
through
the
h ome-buying
process.
Home
Inspectors
This
is
probably
the
best
$300-$400
you
will
ever
spend.
While
a
competitive
situation
may
not
enable
you
to
have
an
inspection
done,
it
is
highly
recommended.
Whenever
possible,
have
an
inspection
done
so
that
youre
completely
informed
about
what
you
cant
see
b ehind
the
walls.
There
may
b e
mould,
old
wiring
or
leaks
that
will
cost
you
a
lot
to
fix
down
the
road.
I
can
recommend
a
professional
inspector
to
help
s et
your
mind
a t
ease.
