How to Use This Mortgage Calculator

Enter the price of the home you are considering, your expected down payment, mortgage interest rate and mortgage term. You can compare different scenarios to see how changes in the purchase price, interest rate or down payment affect your estimated mortgage payment.

For example, if you are comparing two Coquitlam condos or deciding whether to increase your down payment, running both scenarios can help put the difference into perspective.

Mortgage Payments Are Only Part of the Cost of Buying a Home

Your mortgage payment is an important part of your housing costs, but buyers should also budget for other expenses associated with purchasing and owning real estate in British Columbia.

Depending on the property and your circumstances, these may include:

  • BC Property Transfer Tax
  • Legal and conveyancing fees
  • Home inspection costs
  • Property taxes
  • Home insurance
  • Strata fees for condos and townhouses
  • Moving expenses
  • Mortgage insurance where applicable

Some buyers may qualify for exemptions or programs that reduce certain purchase costs, including eligible first-time home buyers.

Down Payment and Mortgage Amount

Your down payment directly affects the amount you need to finance. A larger down payment generally means a smaller mortgage and lower mortgage payments.

Minimum down payment requirements and mortgage insurance rules vary depending on the purchase price and financing structure, so this calculator should be used as an estimate rather than as a mortgage approval tool.

Mortgage Rate and Mortgage Term

Even a relatively small change in your mortgage rate can make a noticeable difference to your mortgage payment.

The mortgage term and payment frequency can also affect your payment calculations. Your mortgage broker or lender can provide the financing options available to you based on your individual circumstances.

Mortgage Calculator FAQ

How much mortgage can I afford in BC?

Your mortgage payment is only one part of affordability. A lender will also consider your income, existing debts, down payment, credit history and applicable mortgage qualification requirements when determining how much you may be able to borrow.

Does this mortgage calculator include property taxes and strata fees?

No. The calculator estimates mortgage financing based on the information entered. Property taxes, strata fees, insurance and other ownership costs should be considered separately when calculating your overall housing costs.

Should I get pre-approved before looking at homes?

It is generally helpful to obtain financing guidance before seriously shopping for a home. A mortgage pre-approval can help establish your approximate price range and identify potential financing issues before you make an offer.

Can you recommend a mortgage broker?

Yes. I work with experienced mortgage professionals and can connect you with someone who can discuss current rates, mortgage qualification and financing options.
