Question: how much money do you need to put down for a mortgage?
Answer: The minimum down payment in Canada depends on the purchase price of the home: If the purchase price is less than $500,000, the minimum down payment is 5%. If the purchase price is between $500,000 and $999,999, the minimum down payment is 5% of the first $500,000, and 10% of any amount over $500,000.
