Things to keep in mind.

Closed-term fixed-rate mortgages have additional restrictions that you should consider:

Property purchase price must be less than $1 million

You must plan to live in the home

If you sell the home within the five-year term and repay the mortgage in full, you will pay a prepayment fee

You can't transfer this mortgage to another financial institution during the five-year term

You can’t combine this mortgage with an existing mortgage to blend interest rates or extend the term

You can’t extend your original amortization (i.e., number of years over which your mortgage repayment is calculated) or increase the outstanding mortgage balance

You may not borrow against the equity in your home during the five-year term

Key features.

Peace of mind and predictable budgeting.

With a fixed-rate mortgage, you get the same interest rate for the entire term of your mortgage, so you can count on making the same payment every month.

Options to prepay

Get some repayment flexibility, with options to prepay up to 20% of your original balance once per mortgage year and increase payments by up to 20% once per mortgage year.

Choice of payment frequency

Make payments weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, semi-monthly, accelerated weekly or accelerated bi-weekly. Paying more frequently will save you interest and shorten the time it takes to pay off your mortgage.

Bring this mortgage with you if you move

When you buy a new home, you can transfer this mortgage to your new property and keep the same terms and conditions, including the interest rate.

Ability to assign the mortgage to another party

Transfer your mortgage with the original rates and terms to someone else. If you’re selling your home, this can give you a market advantage if current rates are higher than when you first took on your mortgage.
