Ontario's new mortgage rules aim to curb risky loans but may not ease home buying for young people.
In Ontario, changes to the stress test, introduced in 2016 to protect borrowers from rising mortgage rates, may not ease home ownership.
The new rules aim to limit lenders from issuing high-risk mortgages, restricting them to lend only 15% of their quarterly loans to borrowers whose mortgages exceed 450% of their combined yearly income.
Despite the changes, many young buyers still face challenges entering the housing market, as Ontario needs 1.5 million more homes over the next decade to meet demand.
Real estate agent Lindsay Smith argues that these changes do little to help potential homeowners.
