Lock in your rate at application with our rate lock option
When applying for a fixed home loan, you have the option of locking
in the fixed interest rate that is current at the conditional approval
stage, for a maximum period of 90 days. This means that even if our
fixed interest rates change between the date of conditional approval and
funding, you will still receive the interest rate current at the
conditional approval stage (unless the rate at funding is lower).
The rate lock fee is $500 or 0.15% of the loan amount, whichever is
higher. If you request a rate lock fee, you will be charged the fee when
your loan is conditionally approved and your rate is locked in.
