This is a rough estimate only โ not a pre-approval. It gives you a quick sense of where you stand based on standard Canadian lending guidelines (GDS and TDS ratios). For a real answer, talk to us.
All calculations use the stress test rate (your contract rate + 2%, or 5.25%, whichever is higher) as required by OSFI.
