New to Canada Mortgages
New immigrants to Canada play an increasing role in Canada's future population growth, creating new market opportunities. Mortgage financing is available to borrowers with permanent and non-permanent residence status, helping newcomers to realize their dream of homeownership in Canada. It is possible to own a home with as little as 5% down payment.

Get Started
The next step step is to obtain a pre-approval from a bank or lender. A pre-approval is simply a rate hold, typically for 120 days. This allows you to get all your financing setup prior to finding the right home. A mortgage broker will help you acquire the pre-approval so you are confident you have the best product possible.
