Some FAQs

Can you buy a home with bitcoin in Ontario?

Bitten by the bitcoin bug? Buying real estate in Ontario with bitcoin profits has piqued RECO’s (the Real Estate Council of Ontario’s) curiosity. It’s legal, but guaranteeing funds are available when a real sale concludes could be elusive. Realtors do exist who offer to transfer bitcoin into “fiat” (Canadian dollars). Short of that, because cryptocurrency exists in digital space, it can’t be held in a lawyer’s or realtor’s trust account. Finding a third party to consent to be your guarantor is a leap of faith. Your digital investments could drop precariously or go way up in value by the time a real estate transaction closes. And that, leaves either you or the seller on the downside of a bitcoin deal.

Will lenders mortgage land you plan to flip?

Vacant residential lots, lake lots, or bare land may qualify for mortgages at higher interest rates than properties with a home already onsite. Serviced city or rural residential lots attract the best rates. Of course, your credit score counts towards available financing. When the plan is to buy and hold, private lenders in Ontario may be your best bet. Down payments can be as high as 30% to 35% of appraised value for suburban or urban lots, and 50% for rural property. Add appraisal and legal fees, plus land transfer taxes and GST/HST, to that for a realistic idea of what the cost could be.
