Rates have been moving up quickly, which is now having an impact on qualifying power. If you think you’ll need a mortgage this spring/summer it’s very important to get your rate held now.

The Bank of Canada announced today that it has raised the overnight rate by .25% to .50%, to help curb a worsening inflation picture owing to global supply chain bottlenecks, labour shortages and rising energy costs. Canada's surging inflation rate moved to a 30 year high of 5.1% recently, driven by high gas prices, soaring housing and automobile costs and rising food prices and this is well above the Bank of Canada’s target rate of 2% that it had hoped to maintain.

Expect more rate hikes throughout 2022 from the Bank of Canada. Recall that just over three years ago the overnight rate, in October of 2018, was 1.75%.

The next rate-setting day is April 13th, 2022.

Now is the time to get in touch for a review of your mortgage strategy. It's important to get advice and a professional assessment of your situation if you want to switch your mortgage for a new rate, need a new mortgage, are renewing, or looking to refinance for debt consolidation, renovations, or other large expenditures.
