Flexible mortgage options designed for you

Stability with fixed-rate mortgages
If you prefer the peace of mind that comes with a predictable monthly payment, our fixed-rate mortgages are the ideal choice. We lock in your interest rate for the term of your mortgage, making budgeting straightforward and stress-free.
Flexibility with variable-rate mortgages
For those who want to take advantage of market conditions, our variable-rate mortgages offer flexibility. Your rate will change based on market fluctuations, which could potentially save you money when interest rates are low.
High ratio mortgages
If your down payment is less than 20% of the purchase price, a high ratio mortgage is available and is insured by a third party. This path allows you to secure a home with as little as 5% down, making the goal of owning a home more attainable sooner.
We take the time to help you fully understand the terms and guide you through every step of the mortgage application process.
Support for first-time home buyers
Home ownership is closer than you think. We’re here to help you take advantage of the First Home Savings Account (FHSA) and the Home Buyers’ Plan (HBP).
First Home Savings Account (FHSA)
Designed to help first-time home buyers save for a down payment, with tax-deductible contributions and tax-free withdrawals for eligible home purchases.
Home Buyers’ Plan (HBP)
A federal plan that allows first-time home buyers to withdraw funds from their RRSP to buy a home, with the flexibility to repay the amount over time.
