The monthly payment on a $900,000 mortgage in Canada is about $5,002 at a ~4.5% rate over a 25-year amortization. Because variable rates track the Bank of Canada's 2.25% policy rate, that payment moves with every rate decision.

At a ~4.5% rate over 25 years, a $900,000 mortgage costs about $1,500,600 in total payments — roughly $600,600 of that is interest on top of the amount you borrowed. Stretching to a 30-year amortization lowers the monthly payment to about $4,560, but you pay more interest over the life of the loan. Every Bank of Canada cut trims both the payment and the total interest.
A $900,000 mortgage typically implies a home price higher than the loan itself, since most buyers put money down. With 20% down, a $900,000 mortgage corresponds to a purchase price of about $1,125,000; with a minimum 5% down (on the insured portion), the same loan supports a lower price but adds CMHC mortgage-default insurance to your balance. Use the what-if simulator to see how a rate change hits this exact amount, and compare home prices by city.
