Net Worth Calculator

Add up what you own (savings, RRSPs and TFSAs, investments, your home and car) and take away what you owe, to see your net worth, your home equity and the cash and investments you could actually reach.

The figures are examples: change them to yours, and leave out anything you don’t have.

Your net worth

$225,000

You own $655,000 and owe $430,000

Home equity
$150,000
Without your home
$75,000
Cash and investments
$25,000

What this means

Your debts are 66% of what you own. That share falls as you pay down debt and your savings grow.

Most of many people’s net worth is their home and retirement savings, which you can’t easily spend. Cash and investments of $25,000 are what you could reach in an emergency or for a goal.

Work it out once or twice a year: the trend matters more than the number. Bookmark this page to keep your figures: they’re saved in the link, not on our servers.

Assumptions in this estimate

How the calculator works

  1. What you own: cash and savings, RRSPs, TFSAs, FHSAs and pensions, other investments, your home, vehicles and anything else of value, at what each is worth today.
  2. What you owe: your mortgage, car loans, student loans, credit cards and other debts.
  3. Net worth is the difference. The calculator also shows your home equity (home value less mortgage), your net worth without your home, and the cash and investments you could reach without selling your home or touching retirement accounts.

Example

With $15,000 in savings, $60,000 in RRSPs and TFSAs, $10,000 in a non-registered account, a $550,000 home and a $20,000 car, you own $655,000. With a $400,000 mortgage, a $12,000 car loan, $15,000 of student loans and $3,000 on credit cards, you owe $430,000. Your net worth is $225,000: $150,000 of home equity and $75,000 besides.

What to include

  • Include: chequing and savings, GICs, RRSPs, TFSAs, FHSAs, RESPs if you think of them as yours, non-registered investments, your home and other property, and cars at their resale value.
  • Leave out: everyday belongings like furniture and electronics, which are worth far less used, and future CPP and OAS payments.

Frequently asked questions

What is net worth?

Everything you own minus everything you owe. If your savings, RRSP, home and car are worth $655,000 and your mortgage and loans add up to $430,000, your net worth is $225,000.

Should I include my home in my net worth?

Yes, at what it would sell for today, with the mortgage as a debt. But you can’t spend your home without selling it, so the calculator also shows your net worth without it.

Should I count my RRSP and TFSA?

Yes, at today’s balance. RRSP money is taxed when you take it out, so it’s worth a little less to you than the balance shows. TFSA money isn’t taxed again.

Is a negative net worth bad?

It’s common early in your career, especially with student loans or a new mortgage. What matters is that it rises over time. Paying off high-interest debt such as credit cards lifts it fastest.

How often should I work out my net worth?

Once or twice a year is plenty. The trend matters more than the number, and markets and home prices move it from month to month.
