At 5.04% over 25 years, the principal-and-interest payment on a $260,000 mortgage is about $1,518.10 per month. Canadian fixed mortgages compound semi-annually (not monthly) and usually run a 5-year term within a 25-year amortization.
No — this is principal and interest only. Property tax and home insurance are paid separately on top. In Canada, CMHC mortgage-default insurance is required with less than 20% down and is added to your loan.
Over the full 25-year term at 5.04%, total interest on a $260,000 mortgage is roughly $195,430. Overpaying reduces this substantially.
