There are some ways you can get financial support with your mortgage if you are buying property for the first time. First, you can use the Home Buyer’s Plan to borrow money from the Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP), which can increase your down payment. Other than that, there are still Canadian governmental programs helping you afford your home, like the First-Time Home Buyer Incentive. This program gives a proportion of the property’s purchase cost to contribute to your down payment.
