cover the penalty amount or other costs charged by the existing lender?
There should not be any penalty involved with your existing lender if your mortgage is coming up for renewal. However, there may be a penalty if you are breaking a term with your existing lender. ING DIRECT will not cover the penalty, discharge fees etc., if any, charged by the existing lender but may allow you to add or roll-in these amounts into your mortgage. In addition, ING DIRECT will cover the legal and appraisal fees for assignable mortgages. For more information or to discuss your situation with a helpful mortgage specialist call1-866-700-4604.
