This rate is available through select lenders for well-qualified borrowers with strong credit (680+) and at least 20% down payment. Insured mortgages (less than 20% down) may qualify for even lower rates. A mortgage broker can help you lock in the best 5-year fixed rate for your London home purchase or renewal.

How much do I need to buy a home in London?

The average home price in London is $580,000. The minimum down payment is 5% on the first $500,000 plus 10% on the remainder—approximately $33,000. First-time buyers can also access the FHSA ($40,000 tax-free savings) and RRSP Home Buyers' Plan ($60,000 withdrawal). At current rates of 3.94%, your estimated monthly mortgage payment would be manageable for most London households.

Should I choose a fixed or variable mortgage rate in London?

In London's current market, the best 5-year fixed rate is 3.94%, the 3-year fixed is 3.84%, and the best variable rate is Prime minus 0.95%. Fixed rates offer payment stability—important for London buyers with growing families. Variable rates can save money if the Bank of Canada continues adjusting rates. Your mortgage broker can model both scenarios based on your London property and budget.

Should I use a mortgage broker or bank in London?

A mortgage broker in London compares rates from 50+ lenders—banks, credit unions, and monoline lenders—at no cost to you. Major banks in the area include TD Canada Trust, RBC, Libro Credit Union. Brokers typically save London borrowers 0.25-0.50% compared to posted bank rates, which on a $500,000 mortgage saves $6,000-12,000+ over a 5-year term.

How do I get pre-approved for a mortgage in London?

Getting pre-approved for a London mortgage takes 24-48 hours. You'll need government ID, proof of income (pay stubs, T4s, or business financials if self-employed), bank statements, and a credit check. Pre-approval locks in your rate for 90-120 days at today's 3.94% fixed rate, confirms your budget, and shows London sellers you're a serious buyer. It's free and doesn't commit you to a lender.

What first-time buyer programs are available in London, Ontario?

First-time buyers in London can access several programs: the First Home Savings Account (FHSA) for up to $40,000 in tax-free savings, the RRSP Home Buyers' Plan ($60,000 tax-free withdrawal), extended 30-year amortization on insured mortgages (new construction or homes up to $1.5M), and the First-Time Home Buyer Tax Credit ($1,500). Ontario first-time buyers also save up to $4,000 with the Land Transfer Tax rebate (up to $8,475 in Toronto). A London mortgage broker can help you maximize all available incentives.

Why is London so much cheaper than the GTA?

London lacks the transit connectivity and employment density of the GTA. However, remote work has changed this equation—many buyers now prioritize affordability and space over commute times.
