Frequently Asked Questions

What is a mortgage stress test?
Canadian regulators require banks to test if borrowers can afford payments if rates rise 2%+. Even where not required, doing this yourself reveals your financial resilience.
What % of income is "safe"?
Under 30%: comfortable — room for life. 30-40%: tight but workable. 40%+: risky — one job loss or repair bill = trouble. 50%+: financially fragile.
Should I worry about rate rises?
If you have a fixed-rate mortgage locked in: no near-term worry. Variable / ARM / renewal coming up in 2-3 years: yes, stress test now.
What if the stress test shows I'm at risk?
Options: (1) pay extra now to reduce balance, (2) fix your rate if you can, (3) increase emergency fund, (4) consider downsizing. Don't panic — just plan.
