Types of Mortgages in Nova Scotia

Speaking of the various types of mortgages, this is one of the most important things to familiarize yourself with before you sit down with any lenders in Nova Scotia. Some types of mortgages will be perfect for other people, but might not work for you. Here is a look at a few of the most common types:

Conventional Mortgage

If you have a 20% down payment, you will likely be able to qualify for a traditional or conventional mortgage. This won’t require any sort of mortgage insurance and as a result, will be less expensive over time.

Open Mortgage

An open mortgage is one that is more flexible, in that it allows you to pay off your loan as quickly as you want, without any sort of penalty. The interest rates on these loans are generally higher, but they have the added benefit of flexibility, which is appreciated by homeowners in Nova Scotia who want to pay off their mortgage fast.

Closed Mortgage

As you can imagine, closed mortgages are the opposite of an open mortgage. Most of these mortgages cannot be paid off early and the ones that can, have a lot of rules and restrictions. These often come with lower interest rates, so if you feel interest rates are on the rise, a closed mortgage might be for you.

Fixed Rate Mortgage

This is a mortgage where your interest rate will remain the same throughout the lifetime of your mortgage term. It is good for a predictable payment and if you feel that interest rates are going to rise, going with a fixed rate mortgage makes a lot of sense.

Variable Rate Mortgage

A variable rate mortgage is one where your interest will shift with the market. So if the market rate drops, so will the rate that you pay. The payments here are often unpredictable, but if you like to gamble, it could be the right call for you. If you think rates will drop over time, going with this type of mortgage makes the most sense.

What Are the Payment Options Available in Nova Scotia?

In addition to the variety of different types of mortgages available in Nova Scotia, there are also different payment options available to you too. These include:

The option that you choose will depend on how comfortable you are with frequent payments.
