BMO

3 year (fixed)

Total payments: 175,392.47$

Total interest: 25,392.47$

Rate: 3.19 percent

What stuck out to me:

What stuck out to me is how much more the interest was with Vancity then BMO. It's better to do it as quickly and shortly as possible because the longer you are paying the more interest you will pay. The bank that I would go to for buying my house would be definetly BMO.

Part:2

400,000$

Vancity 

Mortgage amount:400000$

Paying: monthly: 3,869.82$

5 year fixed

Total payments:464,378.37$

Interest: 64,378.37

Rate: 3.04 percent

BMO

Amortilization period:5 years

5 year (fixed)

Interest rate: 4.990 percent

Monthly payment: 7,537$

Interest cost for term: 52,292.78$

Balance at end:54.78$

Interest cost at amortization:52,293.01$

What stuck out to me:

Is how different rates and plans can be at banks. I also noticed that the longer your plan is with amortization the higher the interest you will pay. In this case for buying a 400,000$ house would be BMO still because the plan was better and it's over 10,000$ cheaper then Vancity.

Total interest:138,929.55$

Interest rate:4.29 percent

Total payment: 738,929.55$

What stuck out to me:

Is when you are buying a house that costs more it's very important to weigh out your options with different banks because the difference between BMO and Vancity was about 100,000$ which is crazy. I learned that when you have a mortgage carefully plan and think through so you are not spending more money.
