WHAT IS THE FIRST-TIME HOME BUYER INCENTIVE (FTHBI)?
This incentive was set in motion on the 2nd of September 2019. It was created with the intention of making monthly mortgage costs for first-time home buyers, more manageable. By this, a qualifying individual will have the government buying equity in their home. This will allow Canadians to enjoy home ownership in a realistic and responsible way, with reduced mortgages and lower costs per month. Finally, an affordable option for a first-time home buyer.
MORE ABOUT THE FIRST-TIME HOME BUYER INCENTIVE (FTHBI)
There has been quite a bit of anticipation and excitement around the announcement of the FTHBI program. The federal budget only mentioned the start of this program in March, so it’s still early days for the mortgage community. This incentive officially launched on the 2nd of September this year. It’s an exciting time!
You’re probably wondering what exactly this FTHBI means, and whether or not it’s something that could benefit you, or someone you know who would love to own their first home. We’d like to begin by saying that there are always pros and cons. This program being no different, but it’s important to look on the bright side and to make the most of a new opportunity – especially if it can reduce you and your family’s financial burdens. This incentive will benefit many families across Canada, and we hope it will serve as a powerful aid to equip residents with the empowering ability to own their own home.

Through this process, the government will get a share of any gains from the appreciation of the property, and with the same breath, will also share in losses should the value of the property go down. The government has put aside $1.25 billion over three years for this incentive.
Through the FTHBI, the Government of Canada will offer those eligible the following options:

New Build
5% or 10% can be paid towards a first-time buyer’s purchase of a new construction

Existing Home
5% can be paid towards a first-time buyer’s purchase of a re-sale home
