Why refinance rather than keep your mortgage in Sherbrooke
In Sherbrooke, refinancing makes sense when accumulated equity exceeds a useful threshold (renos > $30,000, consolidation of at least $25,000 of high-interest debt, down payment on a 2nd property). The OSFI cap is 80% LTV. An AMF-licensed broker calculates your theoretical equity, compares total cost (IRD penalty + notarial deed) versus real savings, and tells you if it is worth doing now or waiting for maturity. Courteo sets no rate and provides no financial advice.

Frequently asked questions
How much equity can I extract in Sherbrooke?
The OSFI rule caps at 80% of market value, minus your mortgage balance. An AMF broker does the precise calculation for Sherbrooke with a professional appraisal ($400-600) or a less costly drive-by depending on the lender.
Does the IRD penalty cancel out the refi benefit?
It depends. A broker calculates the break-even: penalty versus monthly savings × months remaining. Refi often becomes profitable above $25-30,000 of high-interest debt consolidated. They always compare vs waiting for maturity.
How much does Courteo cost in Sherbrooke?
Zero. Connecting you with a broker is free for you. The AMF-licensed mortgage broker is paid by the lender funding your refi — the standard mortgage brokerage model in Quebec.
Can we refinance with a self-employed or variable-income profile in Sherbrooke?
Yes. Some A lenders have Business For Self programs, others alternative lenders accept stated income via financial statements. An AMF broker knows which handle this profile well in the Sherbrooke market.
