Mortgage Stress Test Calculator (Canada) is a planned calculator in the real estate section of Super Calculator, covering country mortgage regimes.

What this calculator will compute

Inputs: income (CAD), down payment (CAD), contract rate (%), qualifying rate (%), property tax (CAD), heating (CAD), condo fees (CAD), other debts (CAD) and amortization (years).

Outputs: qualifying rate applied (%), GDS (%), TDS (%), maximum purchase price (CAD) and binding ratio.

Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: Federally regulated lenders qualify borrowers at the greater of the OSFI minimum qualifying rate and the contract rate plus a stated margin, applied through the gross debt service and total debt service ratios. GDS covers housing costs including heating and half of condo fees; TDS adds all other debt obligations.
