What this means for you

  • Start with the grid, then the town: rates are province-wide, so find the lowest rate first and then decide whether a local branch is worth any difference.
  • Ask the branch to match: credit unions and ATB branches can often offer less than the rate on their page; bring the lowest collected rate for your term and down payment.
  • Check the fine print: prepayment privileges and how the penalty is calculated differ by lender; see what breaking a mortgage costs.
