Rules have changed. Everyone's rate is unique.

Manitoba's real estate market is currently seeing very high demand. Despite the economic challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, the quest for more space or a yard upgrade is driving prices and bid competition up, with listings currently selling over asking price. The Manitoba Real Estate Association believes that more inventory may start showing up, as vaccinations increase and restrictions decrease — though higher housing prices may stick around for the next while.
With the latest regulations that affect all Canadians, not everyone can obtain the lowest advertised rates. You now have to qualify for your rate, which is impacted by details such as your credit score, amortization period and the purpose of the property.
Higher qualifying rates may also apply for mortgages with amortization periods greater than 25 years, or if you plan on purchasing a property either solely as an investment or if you do not plan on personally living in the home.
At True North Mortgage, our brokers work with you to determine what range of mortgage rates you can expect for your situation. With the help of our online tools, such as our mortgage payment calculator, we can present scenarios in a simplified format, to help you choose the best mortgage solution for your situation.
Mortgage default insurance protects lenders against the risk of a borrower defaulting, and because the lender's risk is mitigated, it allows them to offer lower interest rates and lower down payment requirements on these mortgages.
In Manitoba, as is standard throughout the rest of Canada, it is necessary to purchase mortgage insurance if you buy a home with less than a 20% down payment. Commonly referred to as CMHC, for the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, this type of insurance can also be acquired from Canada Guaranty or Sagen.
There are two different interest rate options when choosing a mortgage: fixed and variable. A fixed-rate mortgage means the rate is locked-in at the time the loan is initiated, and the payments remain the same over the mortgage term. A variable-rate mortgage has a fluctuating interest rate that can change over time, and is often lower but provides less stability for determining payments.
