Step 1 – Mortgage Pre-Approval in Newmarket

Before viewing detached homes, townhomes, or condos in Newmarket, secure a mortgage pre-approval.

Pre-approval helps you:

  • Know your exact buying budget
  • Lock in a competitive interest rate
  • Submit stronger offers
  • Compete confidently in Newmarket’s real estate market

We connect buyers with trusted mortgage brokers across Southern Ontario.

Minimum Down Payment in Canada (2026 Rules)

Down Payment Requirements

  • 5% on homes under $500,000
  • 10% on portion between $500,000–$999,999
  • 20% minimum for homes over $1 million

Many Newmarket buyers put down 5–10%, while higher-priced detached homes may require 20%.

5% Down vs 20% Down – What’s the Difference?

5% Down Payment

  • Enter the market sooner
  • Less upfront savings required
  • Requires CMHC mortgage insurance
  • Higher monthly payments

20% Down Payment

  • No CMHC insurance required
  • Lower monthly mortgage payments
  • Stronger offers in competitive bidding
  • Larger initial savings required

We help you compare both strategies based on income, debt ratios, and long-term financial goals.

CMHC Mortgage Insurance Explained

If your down payment is under 20%, mortgage default insurance is required through providers such as Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation.

Key points:

  • Protects the lender
  • Added to your mortgage balance
  • Premium depends on your down payment percentage

Many first-time buyers in Newmarket use CMHC insurance to enter the housing market sooner.

RRSP Home Buyers’ Plan (HBP)

Under Canada’s Home Buyers’ Plan:

  • Withdraw up to $35,000 per person from your RRSP
  • Couples can access up to $70,000
  • Tax-free withdrawal
  • Repay over 15 years

This strategy helps boost your down payment faster.

Using TFSA for a Down Payment

You can withdraw TFSA savings tax-free at any time.

Many Newmarket buyers combine:

  • RRSP withdrawals
  • TFSA savings
  • Gifted funds
  • Personal savings

We coordinate with your mortgage advisor to structure the strongest buying plan.

Closing Costs When Buying in Newmarket

  • Ontario land transfer tax
  • Legal fees ($1,500–$2,500)
  • Title insurance
  • Home inspection ($400–$700)
