How Does Someone Get the Best Mortgage Rate?

Share This Post

The best rate on a mortgage these days comes down to more than just credit. If you want the best rate there are some additional factors we have to consider:

  1. Credit is great but there needs to be a 2 year history, or major reason why there is no history.
  2. Income is guaranteed; but short tenure would lead to more questions, and reason for short tenure
  3. Down payment; this can be gifted but make sure its in a month ahead. In addition, some lenders just don’t like gifts, as it shows the mortgage borrower cannot save up. RRSP’s are a good way to save up, as you use these as well.
  4. House. The house itself may be beautiful; but if its not in a easily marketable area, or simply too rural you may be subject to restrictions. Leading to higher Mortgage rates.
It takes more than just a guaranteed job, with a credit card being used, and a gift from your mother to buy a house.
