Five Questions to Ask"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Without a doubt, home ownership has become increasingly out of reach for younger generations (chart, bottom). Canadian home prices have risen faster than in any other G7 country\u2014nearly quadrupling over 40 years (graph, bottom). As such, many families are stepping in to help.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond easing financial stress, this support can have added benefits. Many high-net-worth individuals value the opportunity to see their wealth in action during their lifetime. Lifetime gifting can also simplify estate administration and, depending on province, may reduce probate fees.<\/p>\n<p>Still, meaningful support requires thoughtful planning to avoid unintended consequences. Here are five key questions to consider:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. How will this impact my own finances?<\/strong> Many people draw from lifetime savings to provide support. It\u2019s essential to assess how this could affect your long-term financial security\u2014especially given increased life expectancy and the rising cost of long-term care.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. How do I structure my support? <\/strong>Support can take many forms, including gifting cash, loaning funds, co-signing a mortgage or purchasing a property in your own name\u2014each with different tax and family law implications.* Remember, gifting means giving up control. Smaller, ongoing support may allow the recipient to leverage tax-advantaged tools like the Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA) or First Home Savings Account.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. What are the family law implications?<\/strong> If the recipient is in a relationship that ends, gifts or property could be subject to division, depending on provincial family law. There may be ways to protect the intent of your support, such as through the use of formal ownership agreements or cohabitation agreements.*<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Are there tax implications?<\/strong> While Canada has no gift tax, some arrangements can trigger taxable events. For example, co-owning a property with the recipient may protect your share, but if it\u2019s not your principal residence, you could face capital gains tax upon its sale or disposition. Large gifts from taxable investment accounts could also trigger capital gains or income tax.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Will this affect my estate plan?<\/strong> If you have multiple children who are intended beneficiaries, a gift to one child can affect how you equalize your estate. A strategic approach might include integrating gifting into an estate equalization plan\u2014through lifetime gifts or testamentary planning using trusts or insurance.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">*Consult legal and tax professionals to understand the implications of any strategy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3315 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/crescowealthmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-150743.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1569\" height=\"662\" srcset=\"https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/crescowealthmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-150743.png 1569w, https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/crescowealthmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-150743-300x127.png 300w, https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/crescowealthmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-150743-1024x432.png 1024w, https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/crescowealthmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-150743-768x324.png 768w, https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/crescowealthmanagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/35\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-150743-1536x648.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1569px) 100vw, 1569px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Housing Costs Over 40 Years: Kids Today May Have It Harder<\/strong><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"185\">&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td width=\"157\"><strong>1984<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"88\"><strong>2012<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"118\"><strong>Today<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"128\"><strong>% Change from 1984<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"185\"><strong>Average home cost<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"157\">$76,214<\/td>\n<td width=\"88\">$369,677<\/td>\n<td width=\"118\">$712,200*<\/td>\n<td width=\"128\">+834%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"185\"><strong>Median family income<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"157\">$48,500<\/td>\n<td width=\"88\">$71,700<\/td>\n<td width=\"118\">$107,663**<\/td>\n<td width=\"128\">+122%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"185\"><strong>Price-to-income ratio<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"157\">1.57<\/td>\n<td width=\"88\">5.16<\/td>\n<td width=\"118\">6.62<\/td>\n<td width=\"128\">+321%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"185\"><strong>5-yr. fixed mortgage<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"157\">14.96%<\/td>\n<td width=\"88\">4.23%<\/td>\n<td width=\"118\">4.70%***<\/td>\n<td width=\"128\">\u201369%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"185\"><strong>75% mortgage value<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"157\">$57,161<\/td>\n<td width=\"88\">$277,258<\/td>\n<td width=\"118\">$534,150<\/td>\n<td width=\"128\">+834%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"185\"><strong>Monthly payment <\/strong><strong>(25 yr.)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"157\">$711<\/td>\n<td width=\"88\">$1,493<\/td>\n<td width=\"118\">$3,016<\/td>\n<td width=\"128\">+324%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"185\"><strong>Payment-to-income ratio<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"157\">17.6%<\/td>\n<td width=\"88\">25.0%<\/td>\n<td width=\"118\">33.6%<\/td>\n<td width=\"128\">+91%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"185\"><strong>Lifetime interest cost<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"157\">$156,034<\/td>\n<td width=\"88\">$170,704<\/td>\n<td width=\"118\">$370,665<\/td>\n<td width=\"128\">+138%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">*National benchmark, April 2025: https:\/\/wowa.ca\/reports\/canada-housing-market. **StatCan Table 11-10-0190-01, 2022 figure (after tax) with 2.56% annual wage growth in 2023-25. ***Avg. major banks\u2019 five-year fixed rate, April 28, 2025.
