Let's discuss some positive options during this uncertain market!

In the real estate industry, as in most markets, what goes up, must come down. We have watched house prices move overnight into territory we haven’t seen in a decade, and then just as quickly, slip into what seems like a hibernation period! How would we ever plan ahead with these movements? Withou...

After slashing its rate to record lows at the start of the pandemic, the bank has now raised its rate four times since March as part of an aggressive campaign to fight inflation, which has risen to its highest level in 40 years. A full percentage point...this will impact buyers and those renewing in the coming months. Please review your mortgage with a specialist to be prepared.

The Bank of Canada raised its benchmark interest rate by the largest amount in more than 20 years on Wednesday, sharply increasing the cost of borrowing in an attempt to rein in runaway inflation.

The Bank Increases Prime Rate: What Does It Mean For You?

Update: On June 1, Bank of Canada made its third increase of the year by .50%. The overnight lending rate now sits at 1.5%.

What does this increase mean for you…right now…today?

Prime rate will go up, and almost immediately. The Big 5 banks will start announcing their prime rate changes as early as today. Will it also go up .5%? Most likely. Sometimes the banks don’t follow the change of the overnight rate down to the decimal, but that’s usually only the case when the rate is going down, not up. Anyone surprised?

Your variable rate mortgage is about to go up. If you have a floating rate type mortgage that fluctuates with prime, your payment is about to rise. Relax, it’s not too bad. A rise of .5% on a $350,000 mortgage for example is $84 a month. The same logic will apply if you have a home equity line of credit (HELOC).

The Bank of Canada today increased its target for the overnight rate to 1½%, with the Bank Rate at 1¾% and the deposit rate at 1½%.

BREAKING NEWS!!

Bank of Canada Raises Key Interest Rate to 1.00%

The Bank of Canada has raised its overnight target rate by a half-point, bringing it to 1.00%.

This is the Bank’s first 50-bps rate hike since 2000 and was fully expected by markets.

In its statement accompanying the decision, the Bank said, “With the economy moving into excess demand and inflation persisting well above target, the Governing Council judges that interest rates will need to rise further.”

The Bank also said CPI inflation is now expected to average “almost 6% in the first half of 2022 and remain well above the control range throughout this year.”

This is the BoC’s second rate hike this year, following a quarter-point hike in March. Banks and other financial institutions are expected to raise their prime rate in the coming days, which will increase rates for variable-rate mortgage holders.
