请教高人：CIBC Mortgage Cash Back Offer是不是很好？

caifan

刚刚打电话给CIBC问 cash back offer的详情，大致如下：
& F8 @2 E; F- }9 y( `
1。三年固定利率3.3%, cash back 2%;
! `3 h: U( Y4 d  H- R! ~2。五年固定利率3.99%, cash back 2%.
8 m* ?- S: [; O/ L0 L; x3 u3。按照银行网站，五年固定利率5.39%, cash back 5%

0 S0 c* u/ J. n7 v1 p5 f另，做mortgage transfer, 而不是refinance, 银行可以支付lawyer's fee。
感觉选择3最值。各位高人有何高见？

cibc的人好像是这么给我推算的：

2%现金返还三年期，相当于每年2/3=0.67%的折扣，3.3-0.67=实际利率2.63%
2%现金返还五年期，相当于每年2/5=0.4%的折扣，3.99-0.4=实际利率3.59%

, h, o& _2 V2 D) K( R( G按他的算法，5%现金返还五年期，相当于每年5/5=1%的折扣，5.39-1=实际利率4.39%，不是特别好。

我觉得他的算法不精确，好像是假定你会把cash back花掉。如果把cash back马上用于还贷，整个的贷款额就降低了，所以cash back越高越好。

Let's say a customer wants to transfer $400,000 mortgage to CIBC. He has 2 options.
1.   3-year closed mortage with 3.3% and 3% cash back.
2.   5-year closed mortgage with posted rate 5.39% and 5% cash back

Option 1. After 3% cash back, your mortgage amount will become $400,000*0.97=$388,000 with 3.3% interest
If you want to payoff your mortgage in 25 years. Monthly PMT $1896.44. The remaining balance is $356,393 after 3 years.

能确认一下把mortgage从别的银行转到CIBC，CIBC负担全部律师的费用吗？

) \+ k5 Y" Q9 n% o- }; D  G2 r& n谢谢回复！我后来用网上的贷款计算器算了一下，五年选择5%的返还和5.39% 的posted rate确实不划算，主要因为5.39实在太高了。

caifan

用网上的贷款计算器计算，五年固定利率3.99%, cash back 2%比起现在单纯的五年固定利率3.59%要划算一些。

问一个问题，如果是投资房，cashback算收入要交税吗？

caifan

银行网站说：
The Cash back amount is tax free as long as the funds are not used to earn income from a business or property.

据我的重新计算，五年固定3.99% 加上2 % 现金返还大致相当于3.50%，这是相当不错的了。

居然有一位mortgage broker能给这个rate，但是prepayment是5%，不是我想要的 10%。

这个我也问清楚了。我的mortgage broker读了fine print，说你想让银行代付律师和登记费，就得放弃现金返还，当然没有人会那样做。为此他可以另外给我一些现金返还，足够支付相关费用。他说这部分现金返还是他本人用自己积累的点数支付的，与cibc的offer无关。
