Is a 1-year fixed right for you in Quebec?
Who it suits. Rate-watchers who want a fixed payment for just twelve months so they can renew into what they expect will be a lower-rate market. It also suits borrowers who can't yet qualify for the best long-term pricing and want to improve their file before re-shopping.
What drives the rate. The 1-year fixed is the most responsive fixed term to the immediate outlook. It typically prices above longer terms in a normal market (lenders charge for the short hold) and only undercuts them when deep cuts are expected within the year.
Breaking it early. With only twelve months of term, the IRD is almost always trivial and three months' interest is the practical penalty — so flexibility is high.
A specialist term for active rate-shoppers, not a mainstream default. You accept a usually-higher rate for the freedom to renew in a year.
What’s specific to Quebec
The Quebec rate market. Desjardins (Quebec's largest financial cooperative) and National Bank dominate the Quebec mortgage market with deeply localized products. Desjardins frequently offers competitive rates with simplified closing through their integrated notary network. French-language service is mandatory for many borrowers — we have French-speaking advisors available.
Top Quebec lenders to compare. Quebec’s 1-year fixed pricing is shaped by a distinct lender mix — Desjardins, National Bank, RBC, Scotiabank, Laurentian Bank and others all bid for files here, and we shop the whole panel on one application. Foreign-buyer rules: Federal foreign-buyer ban applies (extended to 2027). Quebec does not have its own NRST.
Closing costs. On top of the rate, budget for quebec welcome tax (droits de mutation) — tiered tax of 0.5%–3% on purchase price, billed several months after closing (not at closing like Ontario LTT). Montreal first-time buyers can claim a $5,000 rebate via the Home Ownership Program; other municipalities have their own programs. Run the full number in our Quebec land transfer tax calculator.
