Canadian Real Estate and the New Mortgage Stress Test

The Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OFSI) implemented a higher threshold for the stress test on June 1st, 2021. Uninsured mortgages (regular mortgages with more than 20% downpayment) must qualify for the greater of 5.25% or the rate being offered + 2%.

While initially set up in 2016 to ensure insured mortgage holders could afford higher rates before being able to apply for the lower downpayments (5%), in 2018 all homebuyers wanting any financing were required to qualify so that they were not over borrowing.

Other discussions on this sitution and trying to slow down the housing market, increasing supply and more, are discussed in RE/MAX Western Canada's June 1st Blog.
