Bank of Canada Update: What You Actually Need to Know!

You’ve likely seen the 2.75% interest rate in the news today… but let’s clear up some confusion right now ⬇️

🚨 That 2.75% is NOT the rate you'll pay on your mortgage! 🚨
That figure represents the overnight lending rate – the rate at which banks lend to each other, not the rate offered to consumers for mortgages.

So, what does this mean for you? 👇
✔️ The new prime rate is now 4.95%, which affects variable and adjustable-rate mortgages. ✔️ Fixed mortgage rates? NO CHANGE. These are tied to the bond market, not the Bank of Canada's rate decisions.

If you have a fixed-rate mortgage, today’s announcement won’t impact your payments. If you have a variable or adjustable-rate mortgage, your interest costs might change.

Still feeling unsure? You're not alone! Reach out, and I'll help you understand the details. 💬📩

This is a hot topic these days... ♨️

Last week, we saw an increase of 100 basis points in Prime. For those of you who don't know what a basis point is, that means ONE whole percent ❗

So now, Prime is currently sitting at 4.70%, the highest it's been for a long time. Keep in mind, we were incredibly spoiled to have such low rates for almost a decade.

You might be wondering what will happen with rates going forward…
The answer is 🤷

Really, no one knows (except the Bank of Canada of course). Some economist devote their lives too forecasting interest rates & recessions. 🔮 But the truth is, there is no way to predict this kind of stuff - We just have to roll with the punches. 👊

That said, it’s my job to coach you through the highs and lows, present you with options, so that you can make an informed decision on what works best for you. ✅

There can be many reasons someone is decline by a lender for financing, but here are a few examples. 🙅♂️

As a mortgage expert, it's my job to coach you and explain why you were declined - so we can work towards a short or long term solution.

It's important to remember that every mortgage professional is skilled in different ways, so I might just have the right trick up my sleeve to get you approved right now. 🪄

If not, I'll at least take the time to explain how we can get there in the future.

Many Canadians have a “keeping up with the Jones’” mentality. 👯

The best way to budget and save money is to make a goal, stick to it and save for it cash. 💰

Yes, this isn’t always possible for large purchases like vehicles & homes, but it is a great goal to have to save up for things you want vs. What you need. 🙃

Everyone seems to be worried about the recent rate increase, a whole percent - I agree, it's a bit much. That said, owning a home still has its advantages. 🏠

This scenario is based on a purchase price of $650,000 with a 10% down payment. There is a difference of $320/m in your payment from the recent 1% prime increase (variable rates only). That can seem like a lot, but it's nothing compared to a rent a potential rent increase if you had to move right now 🧳

Also, even though rates are going up, you're still paying off your home. With rent, you'll have a similar or greater monthly expenses, but you'll be filling your landlords pockets with cash instead of building your own equity. 💸

If you're interested in seeing if you can qualify for your own home, message me now! We'll get started right away.
