Estimates only. Rates, rules and fees change and your lender, lawyer and tax adviser have the final word โ€” please confirm before you rely on any number. Affordability uses the standard 39% GDS and 44% TDS limits at the qualifying rate (the greater of your rate + 2% or 5.25%). Lenders may apply their own rules, and CMHC premiums, the $1.5 million insured limit and 30-year amortization rules can change.
