MORTGAGE QUALIFICATION CHANGES

Mortgage rate forecast for Q4 2021: Inflation is expecting the mortgage rates to get pushed up. New mortgage qualification rules went into effect June 1, 2021. The new minimum qualifying rate for uninsured mortgages will be the contracted rate plus 2 percent or 5.25 percent – whichever is higher. That’s up from the current qualifying rate of 4.79 percent.

According to Ratehub.ca’s calculations, a household with an annual income of $100,000 and a 20 percent down payment – with a 5-year fixed mortgage rate of 1.78 percent amortized over 30 years – would qualify for a home valued at $651,000 under today’s 4.79 percent qualifying rate. Under the new stress test rate of 5.25 percent, the same household’s maximum affordability would decrease to $618,000. That’s a difference of $33,000 (or 5 percent).
