Exclamation Alberta Mortgage Fees Going Up This Summer: Alberta Budget 2015

This summer, it’s going to cost more to get a mortgage in Alberta starting July 1, 2015.

People considering buying a house this summer should be aware of some changes to the fees associated with being a land owner, and with getting a mortgage. Last week, the Province of Alberta released its new budget containing pretty significant increases in fees for people like you who might be getting a Calgary mortgage or buying property.

Ex: $500,000 purchase and a mortgage of $400,000 currently costs approx. $290 for land titles and mortgage registration.

Effective July 1, 2015 that same registration will cost approx. $1,230.

A difference of $940.

Read More on this and other AB Budget fee hikes!

A few days ago we posted information about the Alberta Budget and the fact that fees are going up for people considering buying a house. The new fees come into play July 1, 2015.
