New Mortgage rule changes:

Maximum 25 year Amortization - Pretty self explanatory.  

Maximum Purchase Price of $1,000,000 on High Ratio Deal - This has represented only 35% of the insurer's portfolios, not a big change here.  

Maximum GDS 39% and TDS 44% - The buying power would decrease around 10% as compared to before.

Maximum 80% of LTV of refinances - Can now only access 80% of the home equity
