Monday Mortgage Minute- Toronto June 21st

chris — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 01:41:04 +0000

It looks like the fixed mortgage rate market has stabilized after the bank of Canada’s decision to increase the prime rate earlier this month. While rates aren’t as low as earlier this year, mortgage interest rates still remain low historically speaking.

With signs that the housing market is cooling and interest rates are staying low you have decided that now is the time to buy your first home. But what is the first step? Unless you are lucky enough to have the cash available to purchase without financing you should talk to a mortgage broker before you even talk to a real estate agent or search on MLS. By sitting down with a mortgage professional you can eliminate uncertainty and save yourself a lot of time when searching for a home. In many cases it takes only a 10 minute conversation to get assessed. You’ll be able to set a realistic price range and become aware of any potential pitfalls that could arise when satisfying conditions for the lender.

Monday Mortgage Minute For April 5th 2010.

chris — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 21:50:35 +0000

We all knew it was going to happen, we just didn’t know exactly when. Last Monday fixed rate mortgages increased. The fixed 5 year rate increased by a half of a percent from 3.89% to 4.39%. The following are current rates that I can offer but if you are feeling down that you missed an opportunity to capitalize on a low fixed rate mortgage consider my argument for opting for a variable rate mortgage at Prime minus 0.50 (1.75%). It appears that in the long run sticking it out with a variable may still be a good option. If you have questions or comments please feel free to write or contact me.

Monday Mortgage Interest Rate Minute – March 22nd

chris — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 00:36:51 +0000

Fixed mortgage rates are married to bond yields. As a mortgage broker I constantly look towards the 5 year Government of Canada bond yield to forecast where rates are heading to advise clients. Bond yields and fixed rate mortgages have a positive relationship. Put another way, when the yield on 5 year Canadian Bonds increases, the mortgage interest rate for a fixed 5 year mortgage also increases. Over the past 3 weeks we have observed an interesting trend. The bond yield has increased from 2.52% to 2.82%, an increase of +0.30% and yet lenders are not budging on their historically low interest rate offerings. If past trends are anything to go by a rate increase is just around the corner. In the mean time the following rates are still being offered.

1 year fixed – 2.55%

3 year fixed – 3.35%

5 year fixed – 3.79%

Toronto Mortgage Interest Rates March 1st 2010

chris — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 02:50:39 +0000

To start the month, there is a new variable rate mortgage! I can now offer Prime minus 40 (1.85%) on 3 year variable mortgages. It was also announced after I recorded my video, that the 5 year fixed rate special that I was offering at 3.69% has been extended for closings up until April 26th. Tomorrow, March 2nd, the Bank of Canada will be making their announcement on the prime rate. They are widely expected to leave the rate unchanged. If you are looking to be approved for a mortgage or have questions about your existing mortgage, get in touch with me.

Monday Mortgage Minute February 8th – Toronto Interest Rates

chris — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 02:26:26 +0000

We started off this morning with the lowering of the fixed 5 year special offered by mortgage lender Merix Financial leading all the lenders down. The “quickclose” special is now at 3.69% for a fixed 5 year rate. The only condition is that the mortgage must close by March 26th 2010. Other than that this is a mortgage with full privileges. Most other lenders have followed suit and are currently offering 3.89% for their standard rates. You can currently lock in your variable at 3.89%. If you are looking for a mortgage and need somebody to lead you through the confusion that is the mortgage market please feel free to contact me. Also keep in mind that I am donating my services to the Hatian Relief.

Toronto Interest Rates Have Changed For The Better!

chris — Thu, 14 Jan 2010 23:01:28 +0000

In a complete U-turn from the attitude and expectations of last week, one of our lender partners Merix Financial has announced a slew of competitive rate cuts. The mortgage interest rates have come down and I am happy to be able to offer you the following:

-Fixed 5 year 3.75% (for closings before Feb 23rd, 2010 only)**

-3 year variable rate Prime minus 0.30 (1.95% effective rate)**(must close within 30 days)

This will no doubt give the market legs and it will be interesting to see how the winter will play itself out. If you are in the market and would like to explore what options are available for you and if you qualify for these rates please feel free to contact me.

Mortgage interest rates have remained unchanged from last week. Although some lenders have increased their rates, the majority have opted not to buy into the hype created by the markets and held off on increasing rates this week. While lenders are still warning us of immanent rate increases nothing will budge until it is clear if jobs are being created both in Canada and the US. If you have questions about the relation between fixed rate mortgages and the economy get in touch with me to discuss.

1 year fixed – 2.65%
