First-Time Home Buyers
In Canada

Buying your first home is exciting and overwhelming. Let Diverse Mortgage Group take out the stress while guiding you step by step, ensuring the best mortgage rates for first-time home buyers in Canada. We are here to walk you through this journey of 25+ years of experience, guiding you on various mortgage options.

What Is A First-Time Home Buyer Mortgage?

A first-time home buyer mortgage is designed to help individuals purchasing their first property secure favorable loan terms, lower down payments, and potential government incentives. 

These mortgages offer flexible options to make homeownership more achievable, even if you’re new to the market or have limited savings.

Benefits of A First-Time Home Buyer Mortgage

If you are a first-time home buyer in Canada, you have the following significant benefits:

Lower Down Payment Options

In some mortgage programs, you can purchase a home with a down payment as low as 5%. You become a homeowner sooner without waiting until you save enough for a significant deposit.

Access To Government Incentives

First-Time Home Buyer Incentive: A shared-equity program that reduces monthly mortgage payments. Home Buyers' Plan (HBP): Access up to $35,000 of your RRSP tax-free and apply to the down payment. Land Transfer Tax Rebates: Some provinces will give a tax refund at the time of purchase to bring the costs upfront to a lesser level.

Competitive Mortgage Rates

Many lenders offer good deals and more competitive interest rates for first-time home buyers. Obtaining the lowest interest rates available would significantly decrease one's borrowing expenses.

Flexible Mortgage Options

Select fixed-rate or variable-rate mortgages based on your needs and financial goals. Choose between open or closed mortgage terms according to your requirement for flexibility.

Getting a mortgage as a first-time home buyer in Canada involves several steps.
