Re : prêt avec ING?

ING being the best offer sounds surprising to me.
I would have though CRELAN or AXA being better, but things change so fast in the bank sector nowadays...

The way I do comparison is the following one :
- add total credit cost
- add life insurance total cost on 15 years (no need to index even if not paid one shot)
- add 15 yearly fire insurance cost
- add credit file cost
- add "notary cost" for the mortgage operation or for the "mandat hypothécaire" operation (if all banks require the same guarantee for the same amount, this particular point is no use)
- add any other cost (I don't see any right now)

Divide the whole by the lengh in month : 180 if 15 years.

Now you can compare the various offers you have received.

I don't think of any hidden conditions right now.  Most important ones that can be negociated if your file is negociable enough :
- no mortgage but "mandat hypothécaire" instead (or lower mortgage)
- early redemption penalty cost (legally maximum 3 month interest)
- life insurance not 100% on both heads (thus 200% cover when a couple borrows) but 65% on one and 35% on the other for instance

prêt avec ING?

En anglais...

I'm shopping around for mortgages. ING seems to offer the best rate for now. But I've heard ING has some hidden costs/conditions (eg need to take insurance) which in the end can make the mortgage more expensive.

In your experience, what are the hidden costs/conditions/inconveniences of ING mortgage? Are there any other banks/brokers with good rates and better conditions (fixed rate, 15 years)?

Merci
