Frequently asked questions

What does FairRate Canada help me decide?

FairRate Canada helps you review whether a supported Canadian 3-year or 5-year fixed mortgage renewal offer appears competitive against current public same-term comparison context before you accept it. It also helps you identify questions to ask before renewing.

Is FairRate Canada a mortgage broker?

No. FairRate Canada is an independent educational comparison tool. It is not a mortgage broker, mortgage agent, lender, law firm, or financial advisor. It does not arrange mortgages or make lending decisions.

What Canadian renewal offers does the benchmark-backed checker support?

The current FairRate Canada benchmark-backed checker and paid benchmark reports support Canadian 3-year fixed and 5-year fixed renewal offers. Each offer is compared only with same-term public market context. Variable-rate and unsupported terms should not be compared against these fixed-term references.

Will a broker or lender call me?

FairRate Canada does not sell your mortgage inquiry to brokers, banks, or lenders. Paid FairRate Canada reports are consumer-paid products.

What benchmark data does FairRate Canada use?

FairRate Canada uses fresh public Canadian mortgage-rate context for the supported fixed term when a usable source is available. Bank of Canada data may be used for broader context. Public comparison data is not a lender quote, approval, or guarantee that a rate is available to you.

Important limitation: FairRate Canada is an independent consumer-paid educational comparison and reporting product — not a lender, mortgage broker, mortgage agent, law firm, financial advisor, or mortgage underwriter. FairRate does not arrange mortgages, take applications, approve credit, or sell mortgage inquiries to lenders or brokers. The current benchmark-backed checker and paid benchmark reports support Canadian 3-year fixed and 5-year fixed renewal offers and use fresh public same-term fixed comparison context when a usable source is available. Variable-rate and unsupported terms should not be compared against these fixed-term references. Broader Bank of Canada data may be used for contextual purposes. Results are not a lender quote, approval, qualification result, personalized advice, or guarantee of a lower rate or savings. Verify current rates, eligibility, fees, penalties, product terms, and switching costs with the relevant lender and, where appropriate, a licensed mortgage professional or other qualified advisor.
