Fixed: Your rate stays the same for the entire term — predictable payments, protected from rate increases.

Variable: Your rate moves with the Bank of Canada prime rate — historically lower, but payments may change if prime changes.

Rate locked for the full term — stable, predictable payments

The term is how long your current rate and conditions are locked in (e.g. 5 years). At term end, you renew at the prevailing rate. This is different from the amortization period, which is the total time to pay off the mortgage.

How long your rate is locked in before renewal

The total number of years to fully pay off your mortgage. Longer amortization = lower payments but more total interest. Maximum 25 years for insured mortgages (down payment < 20%).

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to common mortgage questions

How is a Canadian mortgage payment calculated?
Canadian mortgages use semi-annual compounding. The nominal annual rate is compounded twice per year to find the effective annual rate, which is then converted to a monthly rate for payment calculations.
What is the minimum down payment in Canada?
The minimum down payment is 5% for homes priced under $500,000, 10% on the portion between $500,000 and $999,999, and 20% for homes $1 million or more.
What is CMHC mortgage insurance?
CMHC (Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation) insurance is required when your down payment is less than 20%. The premium ranges from 2.8% to 4.0% of the mortgage amount and is added to your mortgage.
What is the maximum amortization period in Canada?
For insured mortgages (down payment under 20%), the maximum amortization is 25 years. For uninsured mortgages, lenders may offer up to 30 years.
