Navigating the Evolving Mortgage Landscape

Homebuying Intentions on the Rise
A recent Bank of Canada survey reveals a strong uptick in homebuying interest, particularly among renters. Nearly 20% of renters plan to purchase a home within the next year. With mortgage rates fluctuating, exploring financing options now can help secure favorable terms before potential market shifts.
Mortgage Renewals in 2025-2026
With nearly 60% of Canadian mortgages set to renew within the next two years, planning ahead is crucial. Many homeowners will soon face new mortgage terms, making it essential to assess refinancing options early to avoid unexpected financial strain. Speaking with a mortgage professional can help navigate the best solutions tailored to individual needs.
House Price Expectations
Canadians anticipate a 4.8% increase in home prices this year, though trends vary by region. Understanding local markets and analyzing property value trends can be advantageous for both buyers and sellers. Those considering purchasing a home or refinancing should keep an eye on regional shifts to maximize their investment potential.
Inflation
Canada’s inflation rate fell to 1.8% in December, aligning with the Bank of Canada’s target range.
