Desjardins mortgage rates overview

Desjardins Group is the largest cooperative financial group in Canada and the sixth largest in the world. It stays competitive with the big Canaidan banks by keeping its capital ratio well above the minimum regulatory requirements. Desjardins offers a wide range of mortgage products covering open and closed mortgages and fixed or variable mortgages.

A closed fixed-rate mortgage is Desjardins' most popular mortgage product. It is ideal if you seek payment stability. You may choose from 1-to 10-year terms with a rate hold of 90 days.

An open fixed-rate mortgage is perfect if you're looking to sell your home or are expecting a short-term inflow of funds that can be used to make payments to your mortgage. The interest rate remains stable until the end of term and can be paid back anytime, without penalties.

A closed variable rate mortgage is based on the prime rate, which is subject to market fluctuations. Variable rates are appealing because they carry lower interest rates than their fixed counterpart. The term is five years with a prepayment option up to 15% on the original principal amount. You may convert to a fixed mortgage rate at any time.

The open variable-rate mortgage also follows the prime rate. The term is one year and prepayment can be made at any time, in whole or in part, without penalty. You may convert to a fixed rate at any time.
