Are Canadians more FHSA-savvy in 2025?
Recent insights have shown that a significant number of Canadians are unfamiliar with the First Home Savings Account (FHSA). However, the landscape is gradually evolving. While many are still getting acquainted with the features and benefits of this savings tool, financial advisors and industry experts note that awareness is steadily increasing. The knowledge gap is beginning to close. The largest group of contributors were Canadians aged 25 to 34, accounting for over 57% of all FHSA users1. This suggests that Generation Z and younger millennials are leading the charge in embracing the FHSA.
Why is this age group so quick to adopt? The FHSA offers a unique blend of benefits. These include contributions that are tax-deductible like an RRSP and withdrawals for a first home purchase are tax-free like a TFSA. Financial author David Chilton even called it “the greatest deal in the history of Canadian savings.”1
Despite the strong uptake among younger, higher-earning Canadians, there’s still work to be done. Many older Canadians and those with lower incomes remain unaware of the FHSA’s benefits and unsure how it fits into their financial plans. This presents a clear opportunity for advisors to continue educating—especially through digital channels and personalized advice.
The FHSA is proving to be more than just a niche product—it’s becoming a cornerstone of first-time homebuyers’ strategy. With continued outreach and education, more Canadians will be empowered to take advantage of this valuable savings tool.
