- on this episodes “Mortgage Minute”: the mortgage “posted rate”. What is a “posted rate”? It’s sure not a fully discounted interest rate (that’s for sure). Many Canadians succumb to a higher posted rate at renewal time simply due to not knowing what other options they may have. If you have a mortgage with one of Canada’s Big 5 Banks, then you’re going to want to listen in. Being aware of this could potentially save you tens of thousands of dollars throughout the course of your mortgage. The devil is in the details.
