At TD Canada Trust, we are committed to helping protect the environment, so we want to support our customers as they make environmentally friendly choices. That’s why we’re introducing the Green Mortgage and the Green Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC).

Save money and help protect the environment with your green home improvement

• Rate discount – you will receive 1% off the posted interest rate on a five-year fixed rate mortgage or on a five-year fixed rate portion of a HELOC
• Cash rebate – we will rebate up to 1% of the amount of the mortgage or the fixed rate portion of the HELOC when you make ENERGY STAR^® qualified purchases²

  And at the time you receive your rebate, TD Canada Trust will donate $100 to the TD Friends of the Environment Foundation³

• Flexibility – this offer is available to new or existing customers. If you have an existing TD Canada Trust mortgage or HELOC fixed rate portion, you can renew or refinance it into this offer⁴. If you have an existing TD Canada Trust HELOC, you can choose to lock-in all or a portion of the balance into the five-year Fixed Rate Advantage Option

How the rebate works

For example, say you obtain a Green Mortgage for $200,000 and the posted five-year fixed rate is 7.44%. Your interest rate would be discounted to 6.44%. After you obtain the Green Mortgage, you then upgrade your kitchen and spend $3,000 on a new dishwasher and refrigerator, both ENERGY STAR qualified. Next, you submit your receipts to TD Canada Trust and after validating them, we credit you with the maximum rebate of $2,000 ($200,000 x 1% = $2,000). At the same time, we make a $100 donation to the TD Friends of the Environment Foundation.

See the chart below for more examples of how the rebate works:
