Interest is compounded semi-annually not in advance. The Interest rate is fixed for the term of the mortgage. The interest rate is usually renegotiated at the end of the term of the mortgage.

In this calculation, "Inflation Rate" applies on property tax, maintenance fee, condo fee and CMHC (mortgage insurance) which adds up to mortgage amount. Closing Cost may include Land Transfer Tax (property tax) and lawyer costs. TMI stands for Tax, Maintenance and Insurance.

This calculator is for demonstration purposes only. Always consult a professional financial advisor before making personal financial decisions.
