At True North Mortgage, our experienced mortgage brokers understand that every situation is unique. In the past few years, the housing markets in Atlantic Canada have seen the most growth nationally β and we want to help you get your lowest mortgage rate to save the most.
We know area markets inside and out, and our large volume allows us to pass along a rate discount. We have better rates than competitors and can often lower your rate from your bank!
Banks 'bank' on your business and typically offer higher rates because of it. Our expert brokers exist to provide you with a better option than having to go it alone. On your behalf, we access several accredited lenders and thousands of products to ensure you have the best rate and mortgage β which impacts your savings over the years.
Do you have more complex mortgage needs, like non-traditional income sources, or an immediate need to consolidate debt? We offer more flexibility to help find solutions outside the big-bank box β saving you time and stress when you most need it.
Contact us today! Ask us questions or get quickly pre-approved to see your best mortgage rate (for which you qualify).
It's pretty simple. We stand behind our rates. If you find a better rate, we'll beat it β or give you $500.
See for yourself how much you can save with our lower rates.
Continually updated. Where rates may go now and later β and whatβs driving them.
Thinking of buying a home, renewing or refinancing? Now's the time to contact us. We'll hold your rates before they change. If they go up, your rate is protected for up to 4 months (depending on the lender). If they go down, your expert True North broker also helps ensure your rate hold declines.
A rate hold helps you; you can't go back to yesterday's rate if it was lower before you called us. Get peace of mind while you house-shop or figure out the best way forward, such as finding your perfect home, getting together a down payment or improving your credit (we help with all of that, too!).

Since 2020 until just recently, the colourful collection of Atlantic housing markets had been on a substantial growth trajectory, weathering economic volatility as their populations continued to grow. However, while this region maintains relatively affordable housing compared to more expensive centres in Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia, the stronger market over those years has now made it more challenging for local buyers, especially first-time buyers.
The Atlantic region continued its cooling trend into March 2026, with average home salesΒ down 6.9%Β year-over-year, and overall sales activity remained 20% below the 10-year monthly average.
With housing activity continuing to slow, the region'sΒ average home price also fell slightly by 0.9% to $394,954 compared to this time last year. Price changes were mixed across the region β markets in Nova Scotia, led by Halifax, recorded gains, followed by Saint John, NB and Fredericton, NB. Meanwhile, Moncton, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland experienced declines in prices.
New listings dropped 4% year over year, except in Fredericton, NB, where inventory increased. Even with a softer housing market and fewer new listings, the entire region still records a seller's market, with a 62% SNLR (sales-to-listings ratio). New Brunswick, Moncton, NB and Prince Edward Island are maintaining their balanced market status.
