Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, immigrants in Canada can qualify for a mortgage to buy a home. Many lenders offer mortgage options specifically
designed for newcomers, considering work permits, permanent residency, or other immigration statuses.

The down payment requirement for immigrants is similar to Canadian citizens, starting from 5% of the home’s purchase price for insured mortgages. However, larger down payments may improve mortgage terms and affordability.

While a Canadian credit history can be beneficial, some lenders accept international credit reports or alternative credit references from the applicant’s home country. Our team will assist in finding suitable lenders for your situation.

Yes, some lenders consider foreign income for mortgage qualification, provided it is stable and verifiable. We can connect you
with lenders who understand the unique financial circumstances of immigrant buyers.

The documentation may include proof of immigration status, employment verification, bank statements, and credit history from your home country. Our experts will guide you through the documentation process.

Yes, certain provinces and territories in Canada offer first-time homebuyer incentives, which may be accessible to immigrant buyers. We can help you explore these programs and determine eligibility.

Yes, some lenders consider applicants with temporary work permits for mortgage qualification. Your financial stability, work
history, and employment contract terms will be assessed during the approval process.

Your immigrant status alone may not directly impact the interest rate. The rate is typically determined based on your credit
score, down payment, and mortgage type. Our team will negotiate the best possible rate for you.
