Compare mortgage rates in Canada with this free online mortgage rate comparison calculator. Enter your mortgage amount, amortization period, up to three interest rates, and payment frequency to compare estimated payments and total payments over the loan term.
Use the results to understand how even a small rate difference can affect your borrowing costs in Canadian dollars.
Compare Different Mortgage Rates in Canada
Mortgage rates can vary between lenders and mortgage products. Comparing multiple rate options helps you see how each rate affects the cost of borrowing for the same mortgage amount and amortization period.
Enter the rates you want to compare to review the estimated payment and total of scheduled payments for each option.
See How Interest Rates Affect Mortgage Payments
A lower interest rate generally means a lower payment when the loan amount, amortization period, and payment schedule stay the same. Even a modest difference in rates can add up over time.
Use this calculator to compare the options side by side, then try our mortgage payment calculator for Canada to explore your estimated payment.
Compare 25-Year and 30-Year Amortization Periods
Your amortization period affects how quickly you repay your mortgage and how much interest you may pay over time. A longer amortization generally reduces each scheduled payment but can increase the total interest cost.
A 30-year amortization is not available for every Canadian mortgage, so confirm eligibility and terms with your lender. You can also use our Canadian mortgage calculator to explore your borrowing costs.
Choose a Payment Frequency
This calculator lets you compare monthly, bi-weekly, and weekly payment schedules. Payment frequency affects the amount and timing of each payment, so compare options using the schedule that matches your mortgage terms.
Canadian lenders may also offer accelerated bi-weekly or accelerated weekly payments, which can help repay principal faster; these are different from simply dividing an annual payment amount into more frequent installments.
What to Know Before Choosing a Mortgage Rate
The lowest rate is not always the best overall mortgage offer. Consider whether the rate is fixed or variable, the term length, prepayment privileges, penalties, lender fees, and renewal conditions.
This calculator provides a simplified comparison rather than a lender quote. For broader planning, try our Canadian mortgage affordability calculator or mortgage amortization calculator for Canada.
