Mortgages for Home Purchase
Here's how we keep it simple for you
Overview of First Time Home Buyer Mortgages
A mortgage is a specialized loan used to finance the purchase of a home or property. It allows you to buy a house today and pay for it over a long period, typically 20 to 30 years.
For first-time buyers in Ontario, Canada, understanding the basics is key:
Principal and Interest: Every payment covers the original loan amount (principal) and the charge for borrowing the money (interest).
Fixed vs. Variable Rate: A fixed-rate mortgage keeps the same interest rate for the entire term, offering stable payments. A variable-rate mortgage fluctuates with the market, potentially lowering your payments but adding risk.
The Down Payment: This is the money you pay upfront. In Canada, the minimum down payment is typically 5% of the home's purchase price.
Swiftborrow specializes in guiding first-time buyers through this process, ensuring you get the most competitive rates and terms to start your journey as a homeowner.
Professional and Reliable First Mortgage
Applying for your first mortgage can seem complex, but our experienced team makes it reliable and straightforward. Here is what you can expect:
Get Pre-Approved: This is the crucial first step. We evaluate your financial situation (income, debt, credit score) to determine how much you can afford and what your potential interest rate will be. A pre-approval locks in a rate for a set time and gives you credibility with sellers.
Gather Documents: You'll need proof of income (pay stubs, T4s), employment verification, bank statements, and information on any existing debts.
Credit Check: Your credit score is vital. We assess it to ensure you qualify for the best rates. We can offer advice if your score needs improvement.
Final Approval: Once you find your home, we finalize the paperwork, coordinate with your real estate agent and lawyer, and secure your mortgage commitment.
We are with you at every step, providing professional advice to turn your mortgage approval into keys to your new home.

How to qualify for a home mortgage: The key requirements
Lenders will evaluate several factors to determine if you qualify for a mortgage loan. Your credit score, income, debt-to-income ratio, and the amount of money you have saved for a down payment are all crucial components. A higher credit score and a low debt-to-income ratio can increase your chances of securing a loan with better terms. It’s important to review these factors and improve them if necessary before applying for a mortgage.
Down payments: how much do you need to buy a home?
The down payment is the amount of money you pay upfront when purchasing a home. Typically, down payments range from 3% to 20% of the home’s purchase price. A higher down payment can lower your monthly mortgage payments and may also help you avoid paying private mortgage insurance (PMI). While putting down a larger sum is advantageous, many loan programs offer lower down payment options to help first-time buyers and those with limited savings.
