Common questions about mortgage renewal in Ontario

When should I start shopping for a mortgage renewal?
Start 4–6 months before your maturity date. Most lenders hold a rate for 90–120 days. Shopping early prevents auto-renewal at the posted rate, which is often 0.5–1% higher than the best available rate — costing thousands over a 5-year term.
Should I switch lenders at renewal or stay with my current bank?
Switching often saves thousands. Your bank's renewal offer is rarely their best rate — they count on inertia. This calculator lets you model multiple scenarios side by side. A broker compares 50+ lenders and can often beat your current bank's offer significantly.
What is a mortgage transfer or switch in Canada?
A mortgage switch (or transfer) moves your mortgage to a new lender at renewal with no down payment required. The new lender typically covers the legal and administrative fees. Switching for a better rate costs you nothing but can save thousands.
How much can a lower rate save me at renewal?
Even a 0.25% rate difference saves roughly $1,250 per year on a $500K mortgage — or $6,250 over a 5-year term. Use this calculator to model multiple scenarios and see the exact payment and interest difference before committing.
What happens if I do nothing at renewal?
Your lender automatically renews you into a new term at their posted rate — usually without negotiation. Most Canadian lenders send a renewal letter 30–60 days before maturity; if you don't respond, the auto-renewal takes effect automatically, often at a rate 0.5–1% above what a broker could secure.
Do I need to requalify or pass the stress test to switch lenders at renewal?
No. Straight lender-to-lender switches at renewal (same amortization, no additional funds) are exempt from the mortgage stress test under current federal rules. You only face the stress test if you increase your loan amount or extend your amortization beyond what's already on file.

Never Auto-Renew at Your Bank's Posted Rate Again

This calculator lets you model up to 4 renewal scenarios side by side with Canadian semi-annual compounding and exact payment frequencies so you can compare staying vs. switching with real numbers.

lendsimpl FSRA-licensed brokers cover every Ontario city listed above and can have your renewal rate comparison ready in under 24 hours. Switching at maturity comes at no cost to you — the new lender covers legal and transfer fees. Start shopping 4–6 months before your maturity date to lock in the best rate before your bank sends their offer.
