Big news from the Bank of Canada this morning 🏡
The overnight rate went up by 0.25% to 2.50%. That’s the first change since last fall, after seven meetings in a row with no movement.
The reason? Inflation climbed to 3.1% in September, mostly because of rising energy prices.
So what does this mean for you?
✔️ On a variable rate? With prime now at 4.70%, your payment will likely increase.
✔️ On a fixed rate? Nothing changes until renewal.
✔️ Thinking about buying? A pre-approval with a rate hold is your best friend right now.
Rate changes can feel stressful, but you don’t have to figure it out alone. Send us a message and we’ll walk you through your options 💛
