💡 Most people think the bank gives them a mortgage… but it’s actually the other way around!

You give the bank a mortgage, and they give you the đź’° to buy your home. Think of it as you lending your property as security for their money.

A little mortgage truth that surprises most people!

Renewal notice in the mail?

Here’s the truth: your bank’s first offer is designed for their profit, not your savings. That “offer” is usually the worst deal your bank can give you. 💸 A mortgage broker can leverage that offer, push the bank to sharpen their pencil ✏️, and then shop around to beat it.

That’s how you WIN at renewal time. 🏆

Ever wonder why the online mortgage rate looks cheaper than what you were quoted? 🤔

The truth: not all rates are created equal. The lowest ones usually come with strings attached like property limits, down payment rules, and even hidden insurance fees. 🏡💸

Fixed vs. Variable mortgage rates

Fixed rate

· Stays the same for your whole term (e.g., 3 or 5 years).

· Based on Government of Canada bond yields (mainly the 5-year).
Bond traders look ahead and try to guess at inflation and future BoC moves, so fixed rates can change even when the BoC hasn’t.

· Good for: predictable payments and budgeting.

Variable rate

· Moves up or down when your lender’s Prime rate changes.
Prime usually changes after the Bank of Canada announces its rate decision (about every 6 weeks).

· Quoted as Prime ± a discount/premium (varies by lender).
Example: If Prime is 4.95% and your deal is Prime – 0.50%, your rate = 4.45%.

· Good for: taking advantage of falling rates (but payments/costs can rise if rates go up).

Quick note:

· Different banks offer different Prime discounts, so two “variable” offers can have different actual rates.

· Some variable products change your payment when Prime changes; others keep the payment the same and adjust how much goes to interest (until they hit a “trigger rate”).

If you’d like, tell me your term preference (3 vs 5 years) and risk comfort, and I’ll translate this into which option/structure likely fits you best right now
