Minimum down payment in Canada

5% of the first $500,000, then 10% of the portion up to $1.5M. Homes at $1.5M or more need 20% down.

Mortgage default insurance

Required with less than 20% down. The premium (2.8%–4.0% of the loan here) is added to your mortgage.

Why Canadian math differs

Fixed-rate mortgages in Canada compound semi-annually, not monthly — this calculator uses that convention.

Estimates only. Excludes taxes, fees and insurance surcharges. Not a mortgage offer.
