An increasing number of Canadians are investing in vacation properties to enjoy relaxation, build wealth, and create family memories. Accessible mortgages with low rates are available for various vacation homes, including non-winterized or remote locations like lake cottages or college housing. Lending criteria for second or third homes differ from primary residences, with down payments ranging from as low as 5% or 10% to 20% or more, depending on the property type and seasonality. Some cottages require higher down payments and rates due to their classification. Financing options include refinancing, HELOCs, or reverse mortgages, supported by innovative Canadian tools for a streamlined, accurate mortgage process.
