Mortgage Repayment

Optimize your payments

Overview

Opting for accelerated repayment means increasing the frequency or amount of your payments before the end of your term so you can pay down your mortgage loan faster.

Perfect if you are looking to:

Use any extra cash to pay down your balance
Save on interest
Reduce your amortization period

4 ways to accelerate repayment

1. Increase your payment frequency

If you go from a monthly payment to a biweekly or weekly payment, you will pay back the borrowed capital of your mortgage more quickly and pay less interest in total.

Curious about how much you could save by increasing the frequency of your payments?¹ Do the math!

2. Make additional payments

On the date of each payment, you have the option to make an additional payment. The amount must be equal to or less than your regular payment (including principal and interest).

3. Make an early payment

During the same calendar year², you can repay up to 10% of the principal amount borrowed without fees³. This refund can be made in one or more payments.

If your loan is closed, you can not repay it completely before maturity, without paying additional fees to the bank.
