Merix Financial 3-year fixed mortgage rate.
Today’s best 3-year fixed in our network is 3.84%. We access Merix Financial’s broker-channel pricing — typically 15-30 bps below posted — and compare it across 50+ lenders.
Merix Financial’s best 3-year fixed rate today is approximately 3.84% through the broker channel — about $2,897/month on a $700,000 home with 20% down over 25 years. A 3-year fixed is the hedge term — certainty without locking in a five-year rate at the top of the cycle. The branch rate is rarely Merix Financial’s best — the broker channel typically runs 15-30 bps lower.
The 3-year fixed with Merix Financial
Who it suits. Borrowers who want fixed-rate certainty but don't want to commit to five years when they expect rates to be lower at renewal. It's a popular middle path for renewers in a falling-rate environment and for anyone whose plans (a move, a growing family, a career change) sit roughly three years out.
What drives the rate. The 3-year fixed follows the 3-year Government of Canada bond. When markets price in rate cuts, the 3-year often sits below the 5-year fixed — letting you lock a payment now and re-shop sooner, closer to the bottom of the cycle.
Breaking it early. Like all fixed terms it uses the greater of three months' interest or IRD, but because the term is shorter the IRD window shrinks faster, so the penalty tends to be smaller than a 5-year fixed's by the back half of the term.
How Merix Financial prices the broker channel
Broker-channel monoline known for transparent rate sheets and 30-year amortization availability on uninsured purchases. Strong on first-time-buyer files and clean A-lender renewals.
Merix Financial runs two 3-year fixed rate sheets: the posted/branch rate and a wholesale broker-channel rate a licensed brokerage accesses, usually 15-30 bps lower because the broker handles origination. You can’t reach it by walking into a branch. On a $700,000 mortgage, 20 bps is roughly $1,400 a year.
- 30-yr amort on uninsured
- Transparent rate sheets
- Insured FTB pricing
- Fair-IRD
A worked example
On a $700,000 home with 20% down, the mortgage is $560,000. At Merix Financial’s best 3-year fixed rate of 3.84% over a 25-year amortization, the payment is about $2,897/month. Walk into a branch at the posted rate (~15-30 bps higher) and you’d pay $50-100 more a month for the identical mortgage — which is exactly what the broker channel saves.
