Overview of Saskatchewan’s real estate market
As the nation continues to deal with the global pandemic, Saskatchewan's real estate market is flourishing, recently pushing into a strong seller's market.
As a result of spending more time at home, people are looking for more living space or a yard, with renewed buying interest seen in suburbs. Others are investing to take advantage of historically lower rates and a previously undervalued market. Experts predict this current frenzy to stabilize over the coming months, as price increases and economic pressures affect the markets.
Historic mortgage rates in Saskatchewan
There are two mortgage rate options available when buying a home: fixed and variable.
Fixed-rate mortgages are often higher because the interest rate is guaranteed for the life of the loan. The higher payment is the premium you pay to ensure your mortgage costs will not increase, and allows for easier budgeting as your mortgage payments will remain the same.
In contrast, variable-rate mortgages have interest rates that will fluctuate over time. If interest rates rise, your mortgage payment will go up. If interest rates fall, the payments will go down. These rates are usually lower as there is no premium that reduces the risk of rate changes.

Mortgage regulation in Saskatchewan
Mortgage brokers in Saskatchewan are regulated by the Financial and Consumer Affairs Authority (FCAA). The goal of the FCAA is to protect consumers and the general public by ensuring that regulations are being enforced. They also use marketplace regulation to support a strong economy and investigate consumer complaints.
All mortgage brokers must comply with MBMA Regulations, which is the legislative framework that governs brokers and mortgage administrators.
Bank mortgages are regulated by the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada. Credit union mortgages, on the other hand, are managed by the Credit Union Deposit Guarantee Corporation (CUDGC).
Mortgage insurance requirements
Regulations require that mortgage default insurance be purchased whenever a borrower buys a home with less than a 20% down payment. This insurance protects the lender from the risk of the borrower defaulting, and allows them to offer better interest rates and lower down payment requirements.
Mortgage default insurance is an additional cost to the borrower and is combined with the monthly mortgage payment. The amount of the insurance premium is calculated based on the total value of the loan.
In Saskatchewan, you can obtain mortgage insurance from three vendors: the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC), Canada Guaranty, or Sagen.
Most buyers use Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, so mortgage insurance is often simply referred to CMHC.
