Surrey mortgage questions

How much do I need for a down payment in Surrey?

On a $1,050,000 home in Surrey — a typical price for the market — the federal minimum down payment is $80,000. That is 5% of the first $500,000 and 10% of the portion above it. Below 20% down the mortgage must be insured, which adds a premium of roughly $38,800 to the balance.

What are mortgage payments like in Surrey?

At 4.14% over a 25-year amortization, a $1,050,000 purchase in Surrey with the minimum down payment works out to roughly $5,383 a month in principal and interest. Property tax, heat and condo fees are on top of that.

How much is property transfer tax in Surrey?

British Columbia's property transfer tax works out to about $19,000 on a $1,050,000 purchase in Surrey. A 20% additional tax may apply to foreign buyers in certain BC regions. First-time buyer rebates can reduce this where the province offers them.

Does 8Twelve have mortgage agents licensed in Surrey?

Yes. 8Twelve Mortgage is licensed in British Columbia and works with Surrey homeowners and buyers across purchases, renewals, refinances and debt consolidation, with access to more than 65 lenders rather than a single bank's rate sheet.

Is a mortgage broker better than my bank in Surrey?

A bank can only offer its own products. A broker shops the same application across banks, credit unions, monoline lenders and alternative lenders, then presents the best approval. For Surrey borrowers with self-employment income, rental income or a thin credit file, that breadth is usually the difference between an approval and a decline.
