How about the 10 year at 3.99%
Talking to our mortgage person at TD, she mentioned that they (TD) have a lot of mortgages that are coming due this year. By bringing these offers out, they are hoping to lock in a lot of those customers for the next 4 or 7 years (and thus guaranteeing a certain amount of money coming into the bank) - I had never thought of it in that light, so it was definitely eyeopening.
