      Mortgage payments cover insurance and taxes in addition to the mortgage itself. Unless you have a variable rate mortgage the portion of the payment going to the loan doesn’t change but the amount needed to cover taxes and insurance can.

        Oh okay. So I could just include the other charges when I say mortgage here in the states and I could say the same thing then.

      I think it’s typical to get a 5 year contract and having to renegotiate a new mortgage at the end of said contract. At least, it is here in Canada. Rate goes up, monthly payment goes up.
