Two Options for Canadians to Tap Into U.S. Equity1

Borrow the amount that you need - up to 80% of your home's value - and preserve the credit you have available in Canada.

Mortgage Refinancing1

Consider this option if you want:

  • A lump sum of cash with monthly payments amortized over 30 years – spreading out your cost of foreign exchange
  • Our lowest interest rates - locked in for a 3-, 5-, 7-, or 10-year term2
  • The ability to make lump-sum payments at any time with no pre-payment penalties

$0 underwriting fees on new eligible mortgages until April 30, 20253

Call to Apply: 1-866-283-5928

Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC)1

Consider this option if you want:

  • Peace of mind of having U.S. cash when you need it without concern for fluctuating foreign exchange costs
  • Interest-only payments for a 10 year draw period
  • No minimum balance, usage or draw requirements
  • Access to funds online, anytime

You could save thousands on closing costs with our No-Fee HELOC until April 30, 20254
