Good to know:
How are mortgage rates calculated?

Mortgage rates are influenced by many different factors, including the Bank of Canada’s policy interest rate, bond yields, market conditions, your personal credit history, the term and type of mortgage like fixed or variable, as well as other things like internal costs and assessments. At YNCU, we’ll absorb more costs than our much larger competitors to give our members competitive rates.

Here are some commonly asked mortgage questions

To determine how much mortgage you can afford in Ontario, you'll need to factor in your income, expenses, as well as your debt-to-income ratio. A general guideline is to calculate the percentage of your gross income that is allocated to housing-related expenses. You can use online mortgage affordability calculator here.

Most people prefer fixed-rate mortgages because the monthly principal and interest payments remain the same. They are ideal if you are on a fixed income, or you simply prefer fixed repayments for easier budgeting.

A cash back mortgage incentive includes a lump sum of money that you receive when your loan is finalized. It’s typically used to help with home closing costs like legal expenses, renovations, furniture, or just about anything else. It’s also a great starting point for your savings, nest egg, or emergency fund.
