A Variable Rate Mortgage is a very good option to be considering. You Could potentially Save Thousands of Dollars in Interest Costs With a Variable Rate Mortgage Your interest rate will fluctuate with any changes in prime interest rate. If prime rate goes down, more of your payment will go towards paying off your principal; if prime rate goes up, more of your payment will go towards interest costs. If you need help deciding if a variable rate is right for you, I am always happy to help. Give me a call (306)227-7051

More Stress Test Changes could be coming. The Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI) have proposed changes to its uninsured mortgage stress test, which would raise the current minimum qualifying rate from 4.79% to 5.25%. If it comes into effect on June 1 as proposed, the measure is estimated to reduce the purchasing power of homebuyers by approximately 4%. Canada’s average home price rose 31.6%or $172,361over the last 12 months. The average national price now stands at $716,828, according to data from the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA). Even Even without the high-priced markets of the Greater Toronto and Vancouver Areas, the average price still stands at $556,828, up 34.3% from last year.

Bank of Canada Rate announcement!!Economist speculated that the Bank would hold its overnight rate steady but also signal its intention to begin tapering the asset purchase activity that has been the cornerstone of monetary policy since the pandemic began. They were partly right. The Bank held its overnight rate steady as expected, but did not budge in its commitment to using Quantitative Easing to keep interest rates low across the yield curve. All of this is great news for home buyers. Got questions, please reach out. I am happy to help

Throw Back 10 years ago When this picture was taken I was a banker & for a short time a brunette. About 7 years ago I decided I wanted to provide more and better options for my clients than the limited products I had access to as Mortgage Specialist with the financial institution I was working with. Becoming a Mortgage broker was not easy and there was a LOT I had to learn and I am still learning. As an Accredited Mortgage Broker, I have access to many different lenders, which allows me to provide unbiased advice, service and mortgage lending products to my loyal clients. I absolutely love being a Mortgage Broker and I am very proud to be a part of an industry that is making a difference in the lives of so many Canadian Families

An average Canadian owes about $1.70 for every dollar of income he or she earns per year, after taxes. In the 1990s, the average Canadian owed just 85 cents per dollar they earned. The average Canadian owes almost $24,000 in credit card debt, loans and lines of credit. With little to no value for the assets that were acquired with this debt. In my opinion, there is an obvious necessity for financial education. Canadians are simply not financially literate enough. Far too m...any people do not possess the knowledge and ability to make good financial decision which is leading to pro-longed debt, low credit scores, and lack of savings. Financial illiteracy is not bias and affect many Canadian households, regardless of income or education level, and it can dramatically affect every aspect of life. Financial stress is one of the number one caused of mental health issues. Financial Literacy month is even more significant with all Canadian households facing one of the most challenging years on record due to the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. See more

Cheap money is here to stay! At least for the next 2 years says the Bank of Canada after they reaffirmed their interest rate decision this week! What Does this Mean for Mortgage Rates? The Bank’s announcement affects both fixed and variable rates. Fixed rates are expected to remain low, and likely fall further, due to the Bank’s renewed commitment to purchasing longer-term bonds, which will help keep rates low for the ever popular 5-year fixed term. And the Bank’s guidance o...n maintaining its overnight rate at 0.25% until at least 2023 bodes well for existing variable-rate holders, to the extent they can rest assured their rates won’t rise.
