A variable rate moves with the market and may start lower, but your payments can change over time. **How long does a mortgage approval take?** A pre-approval typically takes 1–2 business days. Full approval depends on property appraisal and documentation, usually 5–7 business days. **What is CMHC insurance and do I need it?** Mortgage default insurance is required when your down payment is less than 20%. It protects the lender in case of default. The cost is added to your mortgage. **Can I refinance my current mortgage?** Yes. Refinancing allows you to restructure your mortgage, consolidate debt, or access the equity in your home. Re-qualification is required. **What documents do I need for mortgage approval?** You will need credit, income, and property documentation. We provide a complete checklist tailored to your situation. **Why use a mortgage agent instead of a bank?** A bank offers its own products only. A mortgage agent has access to dozens of lenders to find the right fit, handles the paperwork, negotiates on your behalf, and monitors your mortgage after closing. ## Content Pages - [Home](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/) - [About](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/about.html) - [Residential Mortgages](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/residential.html) - [Commercial Mortgages](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/commercial.html) - [Current Rates](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/rates.html) - [Mortgage Calculator](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/calculator.html) - [Free Mortgage Review](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/free-review.html) - [Newcomer Mortgage Programs](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/newcomers.html) - [Debt Consolidation](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/debt-consolidation.html) - [Mortgage Glossary](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/glossary.html) - [Resources](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/resources.html) - [Blog](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/blog.html) - [Contact](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/contact.html) ## Blog Articles - [First-Time Homebuyer Guide](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/blog-first-time-buyer.html) - [Fixed vs Variable Rates](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/blog-fixed-vs-variable.html) - [Mortgage Broker vs Bank](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/blog-broker-vs-bank.html) - [Refinance Guide](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/blog-refinance-guide.html) - [Renewal Guide](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/blog-renewal-guide.html) - [Mortgage Broker Toronto: Why Local Expertise Matters](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/blog-mortgage-broker-toronto.html) - [2026 Market Outlook](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/blog-market-outlook-2026.html) - [How Bond Yields Drive Mortgage Rates](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/blog-bond-yields.html) - [Bank of Canada Rate Schedule](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/blog-boc-schedule.html) - [How to Choose the Right Mortgage Agent in Ontario](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/blog-choose-mortgage-agent.html) - [Ontario Mortgage Pre-Approval Guide](https://pathwaymortgage.ca/blog-pre-approval-guide.html)
