Why will nesto only consider Top Banks offers for its Low Rate Guarantee? 

  • Banks account for approximately 80% of all mortgages originated in Canada.
  • We are on a mission to offer you the most attractive mortgages in the market – from the start, and we know this is not always the case for larger financial institutions. With this in mind, we are exclusively offering our Low Rate Guarantee for Top Banks offers.

    • Assumability, Portability
    • Penalties
    • Restrictions

How do I submit a formal mortgage rate offer that I have received?

  • Within five (5) calendar days of receiving an email confirmation that your mortgage has been submitted to underwriting (submitted to the lender), you are free to explore other options with other lenders. This is when your rate is locked with nesto.
  • If, during that period, you have secured a formal mortgage rate offer from another lender for an equivalent mortgage product:
    • (i) You must submit this formal mortgage rate offer in your nesto document centre (login). Upload your other lender’s formal mortgage rate offer under the Mortgage Documents.
    • (ii) You must also alert your dedicated nesto Mortgage Expert of the offer you have received within this five (5) calendar days for him/her to review and propose other possible nesto solutions.
    • Failure to alert your dedicated nesto Mortgage Expert within the five( 5) calendar days’ time limit will void the nesto Low Rate Guarantee.
  • What is a formal mortgage rate offer:
    • To qualify as a formal mortgage rate offer, you must provide the Conditional approval secured from the other lender with details on the mortgage features (pre-payment options, penalties, assumability, portability), rate, mortgage amount, and closing date.
  • What is not a formal mortgage rate offer:
    • Screenshot of mortgage rates available online.
    • Email from the other bank mortgage specialist and/or mortgage broker.
    • A mortgage offer from another lender was secured BEFORE you received an offer from nesto.
    • nesto reserves the right to disqualify a formal mortgage rate offer at its sole discretion if the desired requirements are unmet.

Why five (5) calendar days to find a better mortgage rate?

  • When we secure your rate at nesto, we will invest significant resources to work on your mortgage file.  Such resources include appraisal fees, time from our underwriting team, time from our funding team, and legal fees.
  • With five (5) calendar days (starting from the date you receive the nesto approval and rate lock), we wish to give you sufficient time to explore your options while also ensuring that we don’t invest all our resources in vain.

How will I receive the $500?

  • If nesto cannot match or beat the other lender’s mortgage rate offer that you have secured, you will be eligible for the $500 (assuming you meet the eligibility criteria)
  • The $500 will be sent directly to your bank account via an e-transfer
  • When will I receive the $500?
    • nesto will initiate the money transfer upon receipt of proof that you have successfully funded your mortgage at the exact terms of the offer you submitted to nesto (closing date, mortgage amount, rate, features, etc.)
      • Proof includes, but is not limited to, a copy of the new mortgage approval and details on the mortgage product features.
      • Proof must be received within 7 calendar days of your mortgage funding date
    • Expect 5-15 business days for processing of the money transfer to your bank account

  • The Low Rate Guarantee program is live as of April 18th, 2022
  • Like any incentive programs in force, nesto reserves the right to modify and / or cancel this Low Rate Guarantee at any time, at its sole discretion

Why does the nesto Low Rate Guarantee not apply to a mortgage offer secured elsewhere prior to speaking with a nesto Mortgage Expert?

  • The mortgage market is a volatile environment. Every week, nesto makes modifications to its mortgage rates per the markets.
  • From the moment a nesto Mortgage Expert secures a rate for its client, Nesto will hedge the risk and be able to offer a Low Rate Guarantee.
  • Unfortunately, nesto can’t go back in time on mortgage rates that are no longer available – hence why offers secured elsewhere before speaking with a Mortgage Expert at nesto do not qualify for this Low Rate Guarantee.

nesto reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate the Low Rate Guarantee, in whole or in part, and/or modify, amend or suspend the Low Rate Guarantee and/or the terms and conditions in any way, at any time, for any reason without prior notice. 

All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of the terms and conditions or the rights and obligations as between the entrant and nesto in connection with the Low Rate Guarantee shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the province of Québec.
