First-Time Home Buyer Mortgage Services Across the GTA

Buy a New Home

Buying your first home in Canada doesn’t require a huge down payment. If you qualify as a first-time home buyer, you can purchase a home with as little as 5% down payment — and Ring Mortgages is here to guide you every step of the way.

Refinance

We proudly help first-time buyers across the Greater Toronto Area secure affordable, stress-free mortgage solutions. We specialize in 5%- 10% downpayment.

✅ Can You Buy a Home with 5% Down in Canada?

Yes — Canadian mortgage rules allow eligible buyers to purchase a home with only 5% down payment, as long as the purchase price is within certain limits.

Minimum Down Payment Rules:

  • 5% down on the first $500,000 of the home price

  • 10% down on any amount above $500,000 up to $999,999

  • 20% down required for homes $1M+

Remember:

💡 Homes purchased with less than 20% down require mortgage default insurance (CMHC, Sagen, or Canada Guaranty).

👤 Who Qualifies as a First-Time Home Buyer?

You may qualify if any one of the following applies:

✔ You’ve never owned a home before
✔ You haven’t owned a home in the last 4 years
✔ You experienced a marital breakdown
✔ You’re purchasing with a spouse who is a first-time buyer

At Ring Mortgages, we review your situation carefully to make sure you maximize every first-time buyer benefitavailable.

🏡 What Can Be Used for the 5% Down Payment?

Your down payment can come from multiple approved sources, including:

  • Personal savings

  • RRSP (Home Buyers’ Plan – up to $35,000)

  • Gifted funds from immediate family

  • Non-repayable government incentives

📌 We ensure all funds are properly documented so there are no last-minute lender issues.

Why Choose Me

Rules of Business

These are my rules to do business.

Put Clients’ Interests First

Always recommend the mortgage product that best fits the client’s unique goals and budget—even if it’s not the highest-commission option. Building trust through genuine, unbiased advice drives referrals and long-term relationships.

Maintain Absolute Transparency

Clearly explain all rates, fees, and terms up front. When clients fully understand their commitments—pre-payment penalties, renewal dates, amortization schedules—they feel empowered and confident, reducing surprise costs and churn.

Leverage Local Expertise

Stay deeply informed on Woodbridge's evolving market trends, neighbourhood values, and lender specials. By positioning yourself as the go-to Woodbridge mortgage authority, you set yourself apart and consistently deliver better, more tailored solutions.

F.A.Q.

Most lenders require a minimum credit score of 620 for conventional mortgages, but some private and alternative programs accept scores as low as 580. I’ll review your credit report with you and suggest strategies to boost it if needed.

The minimum is 5% on the first $500,000, 10% on the portion above. To avoid CMHC insurance, 20% down is recommended. Together, we’ll create a savings plan to reach your target down payment sooner.

Yes. Most products allow prepayments up to 10–20% of principal annually without penalty. I’ll show you which options maximize your flexibility and minimize fees.

Pre‑approval is instant, while full approval usually completes within 5–7 business days once all documents are submitted. I expedite each step to meet tight closing dates.
