TD Bank Mortgage Rates

TD is not only one of the biggest banks in Canada, it's one of the biggest banks in the world. As such, TD mortgage rates and products are certainly competitive among the big banks.

As with anything, however, it pays to know more and compare your options. Read on for more information on TD Bank's mortgage offerings before you compare mortgage rates among other lenders and brokers.

TD Bank mortgage products

Above and beyond standard fixed and variable-rate mortgage products with the associated open or closed terms, TD offers a variety of specialty mortgage products, outlined below.

Six-Month Convertible Mortgage

This is a six-month mortgage with the option of converting to a longer closed term at any time, at no cost to you.

5% CashBack Mortgage

This applies to TD's 6-year fixed-rate residential mortgage, whereupon TD will give you cash in an amount equal to 5% of the mortgage principal, up-front.

Green Mortgage

The Green Mortgages makes you eligible for a 1% discount off the posted interest rate and up to a 1.5% cash rebate when you make ENERGY STAR-qualified purchases or the purchase of CSA-approved solar panels.

High Ratio Mortgage

TD's High Ratio Mortgage allows you to buy a home with a down payment of as little as 5%.

Multi-Unit Residential Mortgage

The Multi-Unit Residential Mortgage is available to those considering a mortgage on a residential property with five or more units.

Agricultural mortgages

Finally, TD has a dedicated Agriculture Services arm, with two products focused on those customers. The Farm Mortgage is for those interested in a part-time or hobby farm. For commercial operations, the Rural Property Mortgage is made exclusively for countryside properties.

TD mortgage payment increases

For all TD mortgages, payments can be increased by up to 100% over the term without charge. You can also pay down up to 15% of your original mortgage amount each year with a lump sum payment without incurring any pre-payment penalties. You can also pre-pay as much as you want to reduce your principal if you have an open mortgage with TD.

As with all the rates displayed on Ratehub.ca, TD mortgage rates are updated every few minutes. You can access these rates conveniently, without setting foot outside your home, by either filling out an online mortgage application or simply speaking with a mortgage agent over the phone.
