| Just received your mortgage renewal notice?
Before you just sign it and return it your bank, consider
this:
Mortgage renewals are one of the most neglected decisions
made during the life of a mortgage. Many homeowners
stay with their existing mortgage lender because they
believe it is too time consuming to shop around for
a better rate. Or, they simply think that the offer
from their existing bank is the best deal available.
Or that it will cost a lot of money to switch to another
lender.
Our experience has shown that most banks send
out their renewal notices 30 days before your mortgage
is set to expire and usually this renewal will be at
posted rates or a small discount off posted rates.
Why do they do this? It’s simple. The fact is
that each branch acts as a separate profit centre
for the lender. They are rewarded and paid based upon
the profitability of their overall mortgage portfolio.
They know that most homeowners don't want to go through
the hassle of shopping around, and possibly having to
re-qualify for their mortgage at a different bank. So,
they offer you the posted rate and hope that you won’t
have the time to compare rates.
At Best Mortgages Vancouver we can help can help make
the process of switching your mortgage to another lender
a easy as possible and now most lenders offer "no
cost or low cost switches" with interest rates
that are better than those being offered by your existing
bank. If you want to see how much you can save by not
accepting the banks posted rates look at the example
below.
