• ASSIGNMENT OF INTEREST
  
  Most Provinces allow a legal assignment of interest in a mortgage to have full legal effect without having to discharge and re-register the existing one. This is particularly useful in: Switch situations, where the costs of transferring lenders would otherwise be very high. Second mortgage situations where a postponement may be difficult to obtain.
