Today Fixed Mortgage in Canada have become a part of the ever changing, never calm, always in turmoil world of Donald Trump: Tariffs ON / Tariffs OFF / Tariffs for the Whole World. And throw in some US Federal Reserve Chairman Powell for a bit of extra action. Canada Bond Yields & Fixed Rates fell 2 weeks ago & 3.94% 5 – Yr Fixed Rates popped up everywhere, a week later Bond Yields retraced 20 bps & very low 4% became more normal. Let’s assume after Jerome Powells Hawkish stance that the US Fed has stopped Cutting for awhile (don’t believe the no cuts for a year stuff)

On the Canadian Housing front although Detached Sales showed signs of Life the Future of Pre-Construction Dog Crate Condos in 416 looks dark indeed. And in BC Premier Eby who was a leader in the fight for affordable housing is feeling the heat of a Big Budget Deficit. And Ron’s Rant points towards the future of Canadian Jobs & Economic well being.

The big story of last week in Real Estate was a big downward shift in Fixed Mortgage Rates in Canada. Many Fixed Rates dropped below 4% with brief flashes of 3.84% on CMHC purchases

Some Conventional Rates under 4%

BIG DIFFERENCE from 4.59% - 4.39% just 2 months ago. Does this mean now is a good time to buy a house? MAYBE But with the return of the Trump Tariffs a possibility is buying a home today to chancy

And welcome Jeanine Borges our Butler Mortgage Office Manager to the Podcast & NO she didn't lose a bet with Sacha
