Up to <strong>55% of appraised value</strong> — $251,763 on a Sherbrooke home at the $457,750 median — but that is a ceiling rather than a starting point, and most borrowers are well below it. The share available rises with the age of the youngest owner on title, because the lender is projecting how long interest will accrue before repayment. Illustratively, and for shape only: around 20% near age 55, 30% around 65, 42% around 75, reaching the 55% ceiling in the mid-eighties — roughly $91,550 to $251,763 on this city's median. Each lender runs its own formula against your actual appraisal and re-quotes at application, so treat those as the curve rather than the quote. If a mortgage is still registered on the property it is paid out of the proceeds first, so what reaches you is the advance less that balance.
