No Bank of Canada Interest Rate Hike This Year?
Just a few weeks ago the Bank of Canada was expected to raise interest rates in September. This appears to be off the table now with all the recent economic turmoil in the U.S. and Europe. In fact, a rate decrease may be coming due to the recent interest rate freeze announced in the U.S. An interest rate cut however could lead to lower mortgage rates and tempt homebuyers to borrow beyond their limits.
In fact, 5 year fixed mortgage rates are now at the lowest rate seen in quite a while and could go lower. This is good news for those who would like to lock in a great rate, but the big question is when to act. Check out the current mortgage interest rates by clicking on the rate table below.
