This is clearly a completion mortgage. So you don't need to worry about down payment to the bank before completion.# |9 P( B; _) e+ s' i
+ k8 ^. N7 A$ ^/ Y8 lAs for the deposit amount, it entirely depends on the builder. My builder asked for 15% deposit, when I chose completion mortgage. That's the norm. Other builders may ask less, as a promotion tactic.
If your bank offers you a mortgage of 80% of the house value, you have to take another 15% out of your pocket. (If the appraisal value was less than your purchase price, you need to have even more cash in hand for completion)

Landmark's deposit is 5000 dollars. The deposit will return to you only when you cannot get mortgage. If your downpayment is 5 %, you have to pay all the 5 % to landmark one time. If your downpayment is 20%, you can pay to them in three times. The deposit will include in the first payment.

当房子建到35%,银行给第一次draw是有条件的,银行给客户律师的instruction是要先把lot转到客户名下,银行才会给钱,这样即使建筑商造一半造不下去或跑了,客户起码有一块地在名下, 加上Alberta New Home Warranty 可以保证客户的deposit, 这样也就最大程度的降低了风险.
