Does it cost money to switch lenders?
If you are doing a simple switch, meaning leaving your mortgage amount & amortization the same, then typically it's free (or cost is covered by the lender). But if you're looking to change you mortgage, like take out equity, then you may be subject to appraisal & legal fees. Either way, it's important to line up your new mortgage with your renewal date, so that you can avoid any penalties.

Can I consolidate debt into my mortgage?
Yes and this is definitely recommend. Sometimes is seems counterintuitive increasing your mortgage to pay off debt, but typically mortgage rates are MUCH lower than unsecured debt (like credit cards 19.99%). Our mortgage brokers will assess if you have enough equity in your home to make this happen and provide you with a fancy consolidation report to show you your savings.
