Renewal Review

Mortgage Renewals

Review your lender's renewal offer and compare suitable alternatives before deciding.

Overview

Compare renewal rates, terms, features, fees, and qualification requirements

When your mortgage term ends, you have an opportunity to compare your current lender's offer with other available options. Port Coquitlam homeowners may be able to switch lenders at renewal, although qualification, documentation, discharge, and appraisal requirements can vary. We review suitable options and explain the costs and conditions that apply.

A switch at renewal can still involve qualification, documentation, appraisal, legal, discharge, or registration requirements depending on the mortgage and lender. We identify those requirements and any costs before you decide.

Starting a renewal review before maturity gives you time to understand your choices. Whether you're renewing a mortgage on a Mary Hill family home or an investment property in Riverwood, we compare rate, term, penalty, and feature differences so you can make an informed decision.

Common Questions

Mortgage Renewals — Common Questions

Get answers to common questions about this mortgage service.

Should I just accept my lender's renewal offer?
Review the offered rate, term, prepayment options, and penalties before deciding. Comparing another suitable offer may reveal a different cost or feature mix, but switching can involve qualification and other requirements.
When should I start looking at renewal options?
Begin several months before maturity so there is time to review the offer, gather documents, compare suitable alternatives, and understand any switching requirements.
Are there costs to switch lenders at renewal?
A switch can involve appraisal, legal, discharge, registration, or other costs depending on the charge and lender. Some lenders may cover selected costs. Confirm the complete cost and qualification requirements before proceeding.
Do I need to re-qualify when renewing my mortgage?
Your existing lender may offer a renewal without a new qualification review, but that is the lender's decision and is not guaranteed. Switching lenders, increasing the balance, extending amortization, or making other changes can require a new application and qualification under the rules that apply at the time.
What's the difference between fixed and variable rates at renewal?
Fixed rates provide payment certainty for the term, while variable rates can change with the lender's prime rate. We compare payment risk, penalties, features, and your budget so you can choose an option you understand.
