Compare Big Bank Rates in Canada
Looking to get a mortgage from a big Canadian bank (TD, RBC, CIBC, NBC, First National, or Scotiabank)? There are a number of things to keep in mind when researching a mortgage with a conventional, or A lender.
The best way to compare rates is to see which rate is the lowest first. A lower interest rate on your mortgage could reduce your monthly repayments, and the total amount of interest you pay back over the lifetime of your loan.
Do big banks offer better mortgage rates?
Big Banks, or A-lenders, as they’re sometimes known, offer a range of mortgage solutions for different financial situations. Big banks can offer competitive rates, but this also comes with more stringent lending criteria and approval processes. It’s worth comparing the rates from the Big 6 Banks in Canada to see which rates you can find, or looking into using a mortgage broker who can help you find rates not usually available to retail customers.
Do Different banks offer different mortgage rates?
While banks try to stay competitive with their posted rates, there’s always variance between what they offer. Conventional lenders provide similar interest rates on standard mortgage products, but often have a range of other lending products that serve different customers, with different rates. Lenders also have different approval criteria, and this may be reflected in their rates. At nesto, we help you compare the best rates from all of the Big Banks, and we also lend directly.
Can you negotiate a mortgage rate?
While banks have posted rates online and in store, often they may be willing to negotiate a better rate with suitable candidates. It also helps to work with a mortgage broker, who can negotiate with lenders on your behalf and may have relationships with lenders that give them access to better rates than those posted for the general public.
