Tangerine mortgages: Things to consider
Prepayment options
If you think you’ll be in a position to make additional payments to shorten the life of your mortgage, you should be aware of Tangerine’s prepayment limits. You can make a lump sum payment up to 25% of your original loan amount each year. In addition, you can increase your standard mortgage payment by up to 25% at any time.
Prime rate
As of Apr. 22, 2025, Tangerine’s current prime rate was 4.95%, similar to that of the Big Six banks.
Tangerine’s prime rate is the basis for its variable rate mortgage. When the Bank of Canada adjusts its overnight rate, Tangerine’s prime rate will increase or decrease by the same amount, affecting the cost of borrowing for these products.
How to get the best mortgage rate at Tangerine
To get the lowest mortgage rate at Tangerine, you can:
Raise your credit score. The higher your credit score, the lower the rate you’ll be charged.
Make a larger down payment. Go beyond Canada’s minimum down payment guidelines, and you may receive a lower rate. In addition, you can avoid paying a monthly mortgage insurance cost if your down payment is at least 20%.
Lower your debt service ratios. Debt service ratios compare your income to your debt expenses. If these ratios are high, lenders see you as a riskier borrower. The more risk you present as a borrower, the higher the rate you’ll be offered.
Shop around. The lowest rate you get from Tangerine may not be the lowest mortgage rate you can get. Look at other lenders to find out whose offer is the right fit for your financial situation.
Negotiate: Don’t be afraid to ask your broker if Tangerine can improve on the rate they’ve offered you. If they stand firm, let them know that you’re going to ask your broker to investigate what other lenders are offering.
Getting pre-approved for a mortgage at Tangerine
Getting pre-approved for a mortgage is an important step in the home buying process. A pre-approval tells you how much a lender is willing to loan you at a particular interest rate. This establishes your homebuying budget and lets homeowners know that any offer up to the full preapproval amount is legit.
Expect to provide Tangerine with documentation, including:
Banking information that confirms your assets and down payment savings.
A letter of employment.
Pay stubs that demonstrate your income.
Information related to any debts you have.
The mortgage pre-approval process will also include a hard credit inquiry, which permits access to your credit score and credit history. Hard inquiries may lead to a temporary dip in your credit score.
What else should you know about pre-approvals at Tangerine?
When discussing your mortgage options with a broker, make sure you understand the fees, terms and conditions involved with each mortgage offer. This includes prepayment privileges (and prepayment penalties). Having clarity around these factors during pre-approval can make the next step — officially applying for a mortgage once you’ve made a successful bid on a home — go smoothly.
A mortgage pre-approval is free and non-binding. Just because you get pre-approved based on a Tangerine mortgage rate doesn’t mean you can’t get your mortgage elsewhere.
