Tax Deductible Mortgage

GET FREE TAX REFUNDS - Turn your mortgage interest into yearly tax refunds

PAY OFF THE MORTGAGE SOONER - Save thousands of dollars in mortgage interest, and pay it down sooner, using the tax department's money.

INVEST MORE, EARLIER - Free up new money to invest now rather than later, and build a large, free and clear retirement portfolio

Renewing your mortgage?
Don't renew until you considered implementing this strategy. 

Once your mortgage becomes tax deductible you will have yearly tax deductions against your income, similar to purchasing an RRSP. Unlike an RRSP which you have to purchase each year, the mortgage interest is a deduction you will have indefinitely.

If you're purchasing a home, let us set up your mortgage so you have the right mortgage to implement this strategy. We recommend that you have at least 25% down payment so you can avoid paying mortgage insurance fees.

Self-employed applicants fall within two categories:

• Those who can prove their income by way of the last 2 years notice of assessments from revenue Canada. These clients receive the best rates and also reduced CMHC/Genworth premiums.
  
• Those who cannot prove their income by way of traditional means. We have stated income products for these clients. These clients are subject to higher interest rates/increased CMHC premiums due to the additional risk.

Purchase plus improvements

You’ve found the house that you like but it needs to be renovated. You can, of course, use your credit cards or cash-in some of your investments to pay for the renovations. Another option is to take advantage of CMHC’s or GE Mortgage’s Purchase + Improvement (P+I) program. The program allows you to add on the renovation cost to the purchase price, so you benefit from the low mortgage interest rate and make only one payment. 
Say, for example, the house is priced at $200,000 but it needs another $10,000 in renovations. You can add on the renovations to the purchase price and CMHC or GE will lend against the total value (purchase price plus the renovation cost).

With CMHC, if the improvements exceed 10% of the purchase price or $10,000, CMHC charges are surcharge of ½% on the mortgage amount. You will want to avoid this since this.
GE Mortgage does not have a surcharge. The amount of the improvement can be as much as you qualify for. For amounts over 10% of the purchase price or $20,000, GE Mortgage will require documentation from the lender showing that the renovations have been completed. Furthermore, up to 2 advances are allowed.
Should you decide to apply under either CMHC or GE’s P + I program, you will need to think about timing issues. Before your broker can submit the transaction to the lending institution, you will need to supply him with quote and/or a renovation contract. Since, in today’s market, subject removal days are short, you will need to have the quotes/contract available a few days before subject removal date to give the lender some time to process the transaction. 
Secondary Homes/Vacation Homes
