What a mortgage payment really costs against your take-home pay

A mortgage payment quoted against your gross income can look manageable while quietly eating a much bigger share of what you actually take home after tax, CPP and, if you're self-employed, GST/HST set-asides, especially with today's stress-tested qualifying rates.

What this calculator shows

  • Your monthly mortgage payment at current rates and amortization, calculated the standard way
  • That same payment expressed as a share of your real after-tax income from our salary or self-employed calculators, not gross income
  • A buffer note for self-employed and contract income, where monthly cash flow is naturally less predictable than a T4 salary
