Minimum down payment expected to increase

While there has been a lot of speculation that the Department of Finance would implement legislation to increase the minimum down payment from five to ten percent of a home’s value, it did not happen. Instead, they announced on Tuesday, the following changes that will be implemented on April 19, 2010:

1. All borrowers must be able to qualify for a five-year fixed rate mortgage even if they choose a mortgage with a lower interest rate and shorter term.

2. The maximum amount that a homeowner can withdraw when refinancing their mortgage has been reduced from 95 percent to 90 percent.

3. Anyone purchasing a home as an investment (non-owner-occupied properties) is required to pay a minimum down payment of 20 percent.

Knowing the total floor area of home makes it easer to establish true market value

It is important for sellers to know the total floor area of their home before putting it up for sale. Not having the proper measurements makes it difficult for potential home buyers to establish the true market value of the seller’s home. In addition, appraisers are unable to make the correct adjustments to comparable sales, and lenders have less accurate estimates of market value on which to base their loans.

The Importance of marketing your home

Marketing a home in Brampton is different than marketing any other product or service. That’s because every home is different and therefore requires a marketing program that is specific to your home. It is important to compare similar properties and to examine your home’s features before making any marketing decisions. Any improvements that might improve the appearance of the property should also be addressed. Remember, homes that look great usually sell faster and for a higher price.
