Mitey's margin note · Strong paper
A strong mark. Spend your energy on the fine print now: prepayment limits and how the penalty is calculated.
- The lowest listed rate can come with conditions: a short rate hold, a quick closing date, a limited-feature product or a stricter penalty. Compare the whole offer, not just the rate.
- The 5-year Government of Canada yield moved up 0.25 points between August 2026 (3.33%) and October 29, 2026 (3.58%). Fixed mortgage rates tend to follow these yields, so the benchmark is moved by the same amount. This is an estimate.
