mortgage_affordabilityMaximum home price a Canadian buyer qualifies for: the highest price that keeps GDS (39%) and TDS (44%) within limits at the OSFI stress-test rate, honouring the Dec-2024 minimum down payment tiers and the $1.5M CMHC insurability ceiling.

mortgage_paymentPeriodic payment on a Canadian mortgage. Pass EITHER homePrice + downPayment (CMHC insurance is added under 20% down) OR loanAmount alone when the user gave the mortgage amount (e.g. "payment on a $500,000 mortgage"). Never invent a purchase price to reach a loan amount: it shifts the answer and adds a CMHC premium the user may not owe. | No | Yes | Not declared | No |
mortgage_penaltyEstimate the penalty to break a Canadian mortgage: three months' interest vs the interest rate differential (IRD), incl. the big-bank posted-rate method. Fixed = greater of the two; variable = usually three months' interest. The three optional rate inputs are lender-specific: if omitted, illustrative site defaults are used (the answer can be several times off) and listed in `assumedInputs` — show them to the user and have them confirm with their lender. | No | Yes | Not declared | No |
mortgage_prepaymentInterest and time saved by prepaying a Canadian mortgage with extra per-payment amounts, an annual lump sum, or both, plus the estimated penalty if the prepayment were over your privilege limit (3 months' interest or IRD). | No | Yes | Not declared | No |

Straight-switch renewals are exempt unless the amount or amortization increases. | No | Yes | Not declared | No |
property_developmentDevelopment pro forma for a Canadian build: land + land transfer tax, hard costs, soft costs, HST net of the new-housing rebate, construction financing, contingency, sale proceeds, profit, margin and ROI. | No | Yes | Not declared | No |
property_taxAnnual and monthly property tax from ASSESSED value (not purchase price — Ontario still uses 2016 MPAC values) for 18 Canadian cities, each published rate normalised to full assessed value (SK taxes 80%, Winnipeg 45%). Pass ratePct instead of city to use the rate on your own bill. | No | Yes | Not declared | No |
real_estate_commissionSeller's real estate commission in Canada: commission, GST/HST on it, listing vs buyer brokerage split, and net proceeds. Province sets commonly quoted starting rates (AB/BC tiered, ON/MB flat). Commission is NOT regulated — every rate is negotiable and can be overridden. | No | Yes | Not declared | No |
renovation_roiReturn on a home renovation: value added vs cost, and how that value shrinks by the time you sell (straight-line over the project's economic life — an editable HomeCalc assumption, not a measured figure), plus any net rent the work earns. | No | Yes | Not declared | No |
rent_increaseON/BC/MB rent-increase guideline and new rent, floored to the cent. capped:false = exempt unit. | No | Yes | Not declared | No |
rent_vs_buyCompare renting with buying over a time horizon: net cost and net wealth of each, the break-even year, and milestone years. Both households start with the same cash (the buyer's down payment and buying costs); each month whoever pays less for housing invests the difference. Net wealth = home equity after selling (+ the buyer's invested savings) vs the renter's portfolio; net cost counts only investment GAINS, so the difference in net cost equals the difference in net wealth. breakEvenYear = first year (1–30) the buyer's net wealth exceeds the renter's. | No | Yes | Not declared | No |
reverse_mortgageReverse mortgage (CHIP-style) for homeowners 55+: theoretical maximum (55% of value — the lender's published ceiling, not your approval), and how the balance compounds (semi-annually, no payments) vs home equity at 5/10/15/20 years. | No | Yes | Not declared | No |
second_home_affordabilityMaximum price for a second property (cottage, rental or second home) while keeping your current home: combined TDS across both properties, subject-property GDS, minimum down payment (20% unless you'll live in it), optional rental income add-back. | No | Yes | Not declared | No |
seventy_percent_ruleMaximum purchase price for a flip under the 70% rule (or the stricter 65%): ARV × rule − repairs, plus the profit left after repairs and the commission and closing costs on the sale. | No | Yes | Not declared | No |
