Investing in a Hamilton home is a great choice, but with homeownership comes the daunting mortgage. Mortgages are a necessity for almost anyone buying a home, unless they can pay for it in full at the time of purchase.  Mortgage rates in Hamilton vary depending on a few important characteristics:
 
The Lender- The choice between lending companies, private investors, and banks can ultimately decide your mortgage rate. Make sure to look into the lender you choose and not immediately go with the most inexpensive option. This is a company you will be connected to for years, so you should feel comfortable with them.
 
The Length- In Canada, the maximum length of a mortgage is 25 years. Your financial situation will eventually decide the length of your mortgage, and in turn how much you pay in interest to your lending company. Lenders can choose to change interest rates depending on how long you will be paying them back for.
 
Fixed vs Variable- Mortgages come in two varieties: fixed and variable. Fixed mortgages have their interest rate and payments determined throughout the length of the term. Variable mortgages sway with the market interest rate, meaning they can change at any time. Fixed mortgages are more popular than variable, but the fluctuating market can mean less interest over time.
 
Finalizing a mortgage can be a stressful ordeal, but the joy of owning a home in Hamilton is worth it in the long run! As Hamilton becomes more popular, the housing market will boom, and property values go up. Better to invest in Hamilton now, than be paying much more when investing later.
