Estimates only, not a quote or financial advice. Payments use Canadian semi-annual compounding for fixed-rate mortgages and assume the rate stays the same. Nothing you enter is saved or sent anywhere: it clears when you leave the page.

How this calculator works

  • Payments use semi-annual compounding, the standard for Canadian fixed-rate mortgages.
  • Accelerated bi-weekly and weekly payments are your monthly payment split in two or four, which pays the mortgage off years sooner.
  • With less than 20% down, the CMHC premium is added to the mortgage.
  • Balance at renewal assumes the rate stays the same for the whole term. Total interest assumes it never changes, which it will, so treat it as a guide.
