Variable Rates In Canada

Good Afternoon,

Just a quick note.

The mortgage market is buzzing with the news of various lenders increasing their variable rates. So far RBC and TD have both moved up their variable rates from Prime-.65% to Prime-.45%. We still have a lot of lenders that are offering variable rates from prime-.75-.90%.

This will not affect clients that already have a variable rate mortgage or mortgage approval currently in process.

Those of your clients that are house hunting should be aware.

If you have any questions regarding this please give us a call. To get approved call our office now at 604 536-3802

In other news, Timing is everything: Canadians think it's a good time to buy - and to sell

In this year's survey, Canadians were more likely to say that investment opportunities and market conditions played a factor in their decision to buy another home (both at 21% versus 15% in 2010). The large majority (82%) plan to sell their current home and of those who are selling, four in five expect to sell at or above asking price (78% versus 66% in 2010).

Among those who have purchased a second home and do not plan to sell their previous home, 42% will keep the first home as a rental property. More buyers this year than last indicated that they will stay in their current home and the new home they purchase will be a rental property (32% versus 20% in 2010). Interestingly, there was a big increase this year in the number of buyers who said that rather than selling their current home, a family member will move into it (12% versus 4% in 2010).

"Buyers should keep in mind that if they are expecting to sell above asking price, it's likely they will need to also buy at above asking price," says Haque. "A home is, obviously, a very big purchase - especially if you will not be selling your previous home to put towards the cost. A mortgage expert can walk you through your financing options and show you strategies and products that may save you money and provide flexibility over the course of your mortgage."
