A comprehensive overview of our business model, data ethics, and commitment to unbiased service.

The Reality Check

RateBuddy is free for you to use, but it does cost money to run. To cover our expenses, we earn revenue through advertisements and sponsorship placements. This means our partners often compensate us when you click a link or apply for a product through our site. Importantly, this does not change our product ratings, rankings, reviews, or opinions. We strive to show you the most options possible so you can make informed decisions.

Our Total Loyalty Commitment

Our obligation to you supersedes any business relationship. This applies to everything we do—from the code that sorts rates to the advice in our guides. If a product has excessive fees, we expose them. If a service is outdated, we flag it. We are built to be your advocate, ensuring you always have the full, unvarnished picture.

We Can't Cover Everything

While we strive to scan the entire market, the financial world is massive. We might not list every single credit union or local bank in existence. However, we work tirelessly to present the most competitive offers available in Canada.

Our Editorial Independence

Our opinions are our own. If a card has a terrible fee, we’ll tell you. If a bank has a glitchy app, we’ll warn you. Our loyalty is to your wallet, because if you don't trust us, you won't come back. And we really want you to come back.

The "Spread" Strategy

Smart borrowers in Newfoundland and Labrador watch the gap between Fixed and Variable. When fixed rates dip lower than variable, it is often a signal to lock in stability.

Newfoundland and Labrador Mortgage Insights

Expert answers to common questions from borrowers in your area.

Portability lets you move your existing interest rate and balance to a new home if you move within Newfoundland and Labrador, avoiding penalties.

Yes, but only if you have 20% down (Uninsured). If you put less than 20% down (Insured), the maximum amortization is 25 years.

Absolutely. Brokers in Newfoundland and Labrador have access to multiple lenders (banks, credit unions, monolines) and can often negotiate better rates than you'd get going direct.

If you are in a Fixed term, you are locked in. If you are in a Variable term, your rate (or payment) will decrease automatically when the Prime rate falls.

Yes, and you often should. Signing the first slip your bank sends is rarely the best deal. Switching at renewal is usually free of legal costs.

Generally, no—not for your primary residence. It is only deductible if the property is used to generate income (like a rental).
