    New Down Payment Rules as of February 2016:

    Purchasing your first home can be incredibly exciting, whether you’re doing it on your own, with a new spouse, or with your family. 5% down payment is available for homes up to $500,000 purchase price. Homebuyers will have to put 10% “on the portion” of the price over $500,000.
    For example: On a purchase price of $700,000, minimum down payment will be calculated as below:

    5% on the first $500,000 = $25,000

    10% on the next $200,000 = $20,000

    A total of $25,000 + $20,000 = $45,000

    If you don’t plan on moving, refinancing or making huge prepayments in the upcoming five years, you can consider low-frills mortgages.

    Extra-Savings

    Most first-timer buyers opt for a 5-year fixed rate because they cannot afford an interest risk.

    Hybrid Mortgages:

    If you do go variable, look for one that maintains your payment the same regardless of interest rate variations. It’s easier for budgeting and gives you peace of mind if rates start climbing.

    5% down payment is available to you for homes up to $500,000 as the purchase price. First time Home Buyers will have to put 10% “on the portion” of the price over $500,000. For instance On a purchasing a home for the price of $700,000, the minimum down payment the buyer has to pay will be calculated as 5% on the first $500,000 payments that will be around $25,000 and 10% on the next $200,000 which would be around $10,000. So the total down payment will sum up to $35,000.
