A self-directed RRSP can hold a mortgage on either commercial or residential Canadian real estate. Such a mortgage (first, second, etc.) is a qualified investment for an RRSP provided certain conditions are met. The mortgage must be administered by an approved lender under the National Housing Act (which includes most financial institutions) and the mortgage interest rate, and other terms and conditions must reflect normal commercial practices. In addition, where the mortgage is a "non-arm's length mortgage" (i.e. the borrower who is mortgaging his or her real property is the RRSP annuitant or is related to the annuitant), the mortgage must be insured either by the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) or by a private insurer of mortgages. The mortgage insurance requirement ensures that in the event the annuitant defaults on his or her mortgage, his or her retirement savings are protected.
The main advantage of putting your own mortgage in your RRSP is that you can pay yourself (through your RRSP) a higher rate on the mortgage than you may have been able to earn on the short-term income and cash instruments currently in your RRSP. Perhaps the biggest drawback, however, is the cost. There are the typical one-time mortgage expenses, which include set-up, appraisal and legal fees; however, the biggest up-front cost is the mortgage insurance premium, which can range between 0.5% and 2.5% of the amount of the mortgage. The amount of the fee depends on the loan-to-value ratio of the mortgage and is calculated on the total amount of the mortgage on the property, regardless of the amount held within the RRSP. In addition, there are annual fees for maintaining a self-directed RRSP as well as the annual mortgage administration fees that many financial institutions charge as they continue to monitor and administer the mortgage on an annual basis.
