Is a 3-year variable right for you in New Brunswick?
Who it suits. Borrowers who like the variable structure but want to revisit the whole mortgage in three years rather than five. It suits people expecting rate cuts who also anticipate a change — selling, refinancing, or restructuring — inside three years.
What drives the rate. Like the 5-year variable, it moves with prime and the Bank of Canada, but the shorter term means you renegotiate sooner. Availability is thinner than the 5-year variable, so the lender mix that offers it matters.
Breaking it early. Three months' interest, the same cheap-exit advantage as any variable — paired here with an even shorter commitment.
A niche term — useful, but offered by fewer lenders than the 5-year variable. You get maximum flexibility but give up the longer rate hold a 5-year term provides.
