We provide many options to our customers who are seeking to purchase their next home. 

One common option is to Port Your Mortgage. Porting a mortgage means that you will  move your existing mortgage from your old property to your new property.

Porting a mortgage is a great way to avoid prepayment charges normally incurred when you break your mortgage early. Porting allows you to keep your existing interest rate, features, and remaining term of your mortgage.

Your specific rights to port a mortgage are contained in your mortgage documentation.

For more information on Porting your mortgage or for other options, please contact Customer Service to speak with a mortgage specialist.

We provide many options to our customers who are seeking to purchase their next home. 

For clients who are moving to their next home, we offer the ability to have the purchaser of your existing property Assume Your Mortgage. Allowing a purchaser to assume your mortgage provides them certainty in their financing arrangement and allows you to avoid costly prepayment charges and miscellaneous expenses associated with discharging a mortgage.

All mortgage assumptions are subject to approval and subject to qualifying conditions on the person(s) who will be assuming the mortgage.

For more information on mortgage Assumptions or other options, please contact Customer Service to speak with a mortgage specialist.

Is your mortgage getting close to maturity? Approximately 90 days before your maturity date we will mail you a renewal package for you to review, initial, sign, and return to us without having to requalify.  

For more information please visit our Renewals information page.

You may have the right to pay down your mortgage subject to certain terms and conditions listed in your mortgage documentation. If you choose to pay down your mortgage by an amount that is greater than the amount allowed in your mortgage documentation, early prepayment charges may apply. The amount and method of calculation of these penalties is described in your mortgage documentation. You can estimate potential prepayment charges by using our calculator located here. More information about RFA Bank prepayment is available here and at the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada website. To arrange a prepayment, please contact our mortgage servicing centre.

For fixed rate mortgages, the calculation of a prepayment penalty will depend on, among other things, an IRD calculation which for most of our customers is dependent on current interest rates. See the tables to determine current regular/posted interest rates. These rates are subject to change and your calculation will only provide you with an estimate.

If you need assistance in calculating your IRD or have any questions about prepayment penalties please call a Customer Service Centre located at the top of this page.

*Regular Rates / Posted rates effective Aug 17, 2023 at 12:01 am ET.

Below is a link to a document containing a list of fees which you may have to pay during the term of your mortgage should any of circumstances listed in the document arise. We charge these fees in order to compensate us for the work we are doing in order to accommodate your request, rather than being a penalty charged by us against you.

Reference to these fees is also included in your mortgage documentation although the situations under which a fee may be charged or the amount of any fee may change over time.
