No matter where you live, whether it’s Vancouver, Montreal, or even Labrador City, buying a home is one of the biggest purchases you’ll ever make. You are generally looking at hundreds of thousands of dollars for a family home, which is an amount most people simply don’t have sitting around in their bank accounts.

Thankfully, mortgages exist and can make becoming a homeowner much easier for consumers. They break up the cost of a home and spread it out over numerous decades to make the payments much easier to handle.

However, before ever taking out a mortgage in Labrador City, you need to ensure that you understand how they work and what they entail.

Types of Mortgages Available in Labrador City

One of the first things you should be sure to know about mortgages in Labrador City are the different types of mortgages that are available.

Open vs. Closed

In general, most mortgages will fall into one of two categories, open or closed. An open mortgage is one that you are able to make lump-sum prepayments at any time, without penalty. They are generally more flexible and can be paid off early, but tend to have higher interest rates.

A closed mortgage is one that cannot normally be paid off early through lump-sum prepayments. Doing so will often have a prepayment penalty, though some closed mortgages simply have a prepayment limit. So while these have restrictions when it comes to paying back the mortgage early, their interest rates are often lower than closed mortgages.

Fixed vs. Variable

In a similar vein, most mortgages will either have a fixed or variable interest rate. A fixed interest rate will remain the same for your entire term. This is good for those who like predictable and steady payments, and don’t wish for their rate to change for fear of it going higher.

A variable interest rate mortgage is one that will change throughout the term. It can go higher or lower, and your payments will fluctuate as a result. People generally go with these if they believe interest rates are going to go lower, but they always have the risk of potentially getting stuck paying higher rates if that is where the markets go.

Additional Mortgages Types in Labrador City

Other types of mortgages that you might see and might be available to you include:

• Hybrid mortgage – Your mortgage will have a combo of both fixed and variable interest rates. Different parts of the loan will be financed in different ways.
• Convertible mortgage – A mortgage that can be moved from a variable to fixed-rate or from a shorter to a longer-term at any time, without penalty.
• High-ratio mortgage – A mortgage where the borrower puts less than 20% down and thus needs to get mortgage insurance.
• Bridge loan – A short-term option that is often used until a more permanent type of financing is found. This is especially helpful for those struggling to find a suitable mortgage for their needs or for those consumers trying to rebuild their credit.
• HELOC – A home equity line of credit allows you to tap into the equity you’ve built up. Typically you can access up to 65% of the value of your home. A HELOC works similar to an unsecured personal line of credit. You’ll have a credit limit that you can withdraw from and a minimum monthly payment to make.

How to Compare Mortgage Offers?

In order to find the best mortgages in Labrador City, you need to learn how to compare these mortgages. While it is common to use the interest rate to compare one mortgage to another, it is far from the only thing to consider.

Other terms you can compare between mortgage offers include:

• Term length
• Amortization period
• The lender themselves
• Is the mortgage open or closed?
• Is the interest rate fixed or variable?
• What are the prepayment options and penalties?

When it comes to what kind of loan is better, that depends on who is getting it. The right mortgage for you might be very different than what is right for your neighbour. For example, you may want a shorter amortization period and a variable rate, while your neighbour is a little more hesitant and prefers a longer amortization period and a fixed rate. Make sure you know what your needs and wants are ahead of time, and compare offers based on that.

Mortgage Insurance Rules in Canada

When looking at getting a mortgage in Labrador City, or any other city for that matter, it is important to familiarize yourself with the mortgage insurance rules in Canada. If you put a down payment of less than 20% on a home, you will have to pay mortgage default insurance.

As you could imagine, this is in place to protect lenders in case you are unable to make your payments. The cost of mortgage default insurance will vary depending on how much your mortgage is, and the size of your down payment. Remember, the lowest down payment you are allowed to have in Canada is 5%.

If you want to save on this cost of mortgage insurance, be sure to always put down 20% or more as a down payment.

Credit Score Required for a Mortgage in Canada

Any time that you borrow money, your credit score and credit report will be taken into account. The higher and better your credit score, the easier and more affordable you will be able to borrow money. But what is the actual credit score required for a mortgage in Labrador City?

While it can vary a little depending on the lender you are working with, mortgage lenders often want to see a score at least in the range of 620-680. Anything higher than that you shouldn’t have a problem being approved for a mortgage, but any lower than that range, and you might experience some difficulties.

Of course, the credit score isn’t the end-all-be-all factor for determining whether you get a loan or not. For example, if your credit score is lower, but you have a low amount of debt and a high income, some lenders may indeed be willing to work with you. Things like the loan amount and the amortization period will also come into play.

Alternative Mortgage Options for Bad Credit Individuals

If you have a bad credit score and are worried you will never be able to get a mortgage in Labrador City, you need not worry. This is because there are several alternative mortgage options for people with less-than-perfect credit. Mentioned earlier, a bridge loan is a good option for those struggling to be approved for a traditional mortgage.

Another method is to get a cosigner. If you have a cosigner on a mortgage or loan, they agree to take over your loan payments if you become unable to make them. It is basically added insurance for the lender in case you yourself are unable to pay. Of course, the co-signer needs to have good credit or the lenders might also have worries about them. It is a large risk to cosign a loan, so make sure to choose someone you trust.

Also, in addition to these methods, you could work on improving your credit score until you get to a point where you can be approved for a standard mortgage. Ways to improve your credit include:

• Making all payments on time and in full
• Keeping your credit utilization fairly low
• Not always applying for new credit
• Keeping old and established credit accounts open
• Using credit cards responsibly

Of course, this won’t happen overnight and will generally take some major lifestyle changes and care on your part. However, if you stick with it and make the necessary changes and sacrifices, it can happen relatively quickly.

The Hidden Costs of Buying a Home in Labrador City

While a mortgage is without a doubt the largest cost of owning a home, it is far from the only one you will be responsible for. Some of the other costs of buying and owning a home that you must be responsible for include:

• Various taxes such as welcome tax, land transfer tax, property tax and school taxes
• Costs of moving in
• Maintenance and repair costs
• Cost of a home inspection
• Utility hookup fees

These can easily add up to hundreds or thousands of dollars depending on your situation. Be sure to account for these costs and the various others like them. Not planning for the other costs of homeownership can really put a strain on your ability to do everything from save for the future to pay off your mortgage on time.
