The courtier hypothecaire I'm speaking to is offering me a cash back with my mortgage, in exchange for a higher interest rate.
$15 000 in exchange for a 3.89% Mortgage.
He says in the end of 5 years, I will profit about $1000 in doing so (I can declare a portion of interest for a revenue property in my taxes).
My payments, based on my calculations, will cost $160 more per month vs. a 3% interest rate.
I don't need the cash.
I personally find this all to be a bit sketchy, and don't quite see the utility. The only reason I could think of taking it is for the purchase of a future revenue property or home.
What do? Can someone clarify? I don't have the full details yet, he's writing up some stuff for me and some comparisons.
