Free tool — no account required

Decode your mortgage renewal letter before you sign.

Your lender's renewal letter is not necessarily the best available offer. Enter the key details from your letter and FairRate will help you understand what the offer means, what questions to ask, and whether the rate may deserve a second look.

Free to use. FairRate is paid by borrowers, not banks or brokers. Nothing you enter is shared with lenders.

Enter your renewal letter details

All fields optional except lender, province, balance, offered rate, and term.

Complete lender, province, balance, rate, term, and rate type to decode.

What your renewal letter is and is not

What it is

  • An offer from your current lender — not a guarantee or requirement
  • A starting rate that may or may not be competitive
  • A document that locks in nothing until you sign
  • An opportunity to negotiate or compare before the deadline

What it is not

  • Proof that the rate is the best available
  • Your only option at renewal
  • A document that requires an immediate response
  • Evidence that switching would cost more than staying
