First-Time Home Buyer Programs
There are several programs available to help eligible Canadian first-time buyers:
First Home Savings Account (FHSA): Save up to $40,000 toward your first home with tax advantages.
Home Buyers' Plan (HBP): Withdraw up to $60,000 from your RRSP toward a qualifying home purchase, subject to repayment requirements.
Home Buyers' Tax Credit: Eligible buyers may qualify for a federal non-refundable tax credit.
First-Time Home Buyers' GST Rebate: Eligible buyers of newly built homes may qualify for a rebate of up to $50,000.
Eligibility requirements apply. Visit Canada.ca for current program details.
How Much Do You Need for a Down Payment?
For homes priced at $500,000 or less, eligible buyers may qualify with as little as 5% down.
For example, a $350,000 home would require a minimum down payment of $17,500, subject to mortgage approval.
