Why? Because the right mortgage is about more than just rate.
It’s true that a small reduction in rate can mean interest savings over the life of your mortgage. As mortgage brokers, we are experts at seeking out competitive rates from a wide range of lenders. But we also look deeper. Sometimes a cut-rate mortgage comes with higher fees, penalties, or restrictive terms, which could prove more costly over the long term than a slightly higher-rate mortgage with flexible terms.
That’s why you should talk to a mortgage professional. They’ll design a mortgage and rate strategy that focuses on you paying less interest over the life of your mortgage, so you can own your home sooner!
