Many mortgage professionals and banks claim to offer the lowest mortgages rates but does that mean it is going to be the best mortgage for you?

 

Mortgage professionals and financial institutions love the term "lowest mortgage rates". What they sometimes forget to mention are the penalties that can be associated with getting the lowest mortgage rate. You could be locking in to what is called a “No Frills Mortgage”. This is a type of mortgage which may have very little flexibility. The mortgage could consist of higher penalties for breaking the mortgage, low or no prepayment privileges and it could even have a clause that you must sell your home to get out of the mortgage.

 

As part of Best Mortgage Loans Inc. I work with the most reputable lenders in the industry. It is my top priority to find my clients the lowest mortgage rate while also ensuring they are in a mortgage that fits their financial needs. I am constantly being offered amazing promotions which allow me to get my clients those low rates they are looking for. I do not want to advertise the lowest mortgages rates because that may not always be the case. There may be someone out there that can beat my rates. That said, I assure you that I will fight to get you the lowest mortgage rates I can, with the best terms.

 

The advantage of working with a mortgage broker or mortgage agent as opposed to dealing with a mortgage specialist at a bank is that we deal with multiple lenders. This enables me to the find lenders who can place all types of business such as 1st and 2nd mortgages, private mortgages, refinancing, home equity loans, rental and investment properties, secondary homes and construction loans. I also have access to a great network of mortgage brokers and lenders to handle your commercial mortgage needs. Whether you are a first time home buyer, you are self-employed or new to Canada, these are all areas I specialize in as a mortgage professional.

 

Even though Best Mortgage Loans Inc. is located in Hamilton, ON and a lot of my mortgage business is in the Hamilton area, I service areas all over Canada. As a resident of Hamilton I have established a great network of like-minded business men and women, realtors, home inspectors, appraisers, lawyers etc. These are all individuals I deal with that are an integral part of the mortgage process.

Home sales jumped in April as interest rates stabilized and population boomed

Summary On a seasonally adjusted basis, home sales increased 11.3% from March to April, a third consecutive monthly increase and the first double-digit gain since the summer of 2020. Unlike the previous month, the increase in sales was spread across all provinces, with New Brunswick (-2.5%) and Newfoundland (-17.0%) being the exceptions. On the supply side, new listings increased by 1.6% during the month, a first increase in three months. Overall, supply decreased in Canada as testified by the number of months of inventory (active-listings to sales) decreasing from 3.8 to 3.3 in April. This remains up from the trough of 1.7 reached in the pandemic but remains low on a historical basis. The active-listings to sales ratio is still tighter than its historical overage in the majority of Canadian provinces, with only Manitoba indicating a ratio above average. Housing starts in Canada increased in April (+47.8K to 261.6K, seasonally adjusted and annualized), more than consensus expectations calling for a 220.0K print. This increase more than offset Marchs 27.7K decline and was the sharpest since November 2021. In urban areas, rises in housing starts were seen in Ontario (+35.8K to 110.7K), British Columbia (+9.9K to 58.1K), the Maritimes (+4.0K to 9.8K) and Quebec (+2.3K to 29.4K). Meanwhile, a decline was registered in the Prairies (-2.8K to 33.2K) on losses in Manitoba (-3.5K to 4.0K) and Saskatchewan {-0.3K to 2.4K) while starts in Alberta posted an increase (+1.1K to 26.8K). The Teranet-National Bank Composite National House Price Index remained relatively stable in April with a slight decrease of 0.1% compared with the previous month and after adjusting for seasonal effects. After seasonal adjustment, 5 of the 11 markets in the composite index were down during the month: Edmonton (-2.5%). Ottawa-Gatineau (-2.1%), Vancouver (-0.9%), Hamilton (-0.5%) and Montreal (-0.2%). Conversely, prices increased during the month in Quebec City (+1.2%), Toronto (+0.7%), Winnipeg (+0.5%), Calgary (+0.3%) and Victoria (+0.1%), while they remained stable in Halifax. https://www.nbc.ca/content/dam/bnc/taux-analyses/analyse-eco/logement/economic-news-resale-market.pdf

CMHC Housing Market Outlook - Spring 2023

From CMHC Key highlights from the 2023 release We expect house prices and supply in Canada to decrease between 2022 2023. Price declines are expected to end sometime in 2023 before increasing for the remainder of the forecast period. Our analysis forecasts a significant drop in housing starts in 2023 and we can see some recovery starting in 2023 to 2024 and onward. Rental affordability is also set to decline due to demand outstripping supply, especially in Vancouver and Toronto. Prairie provinces expect more positive housing market conditions due to interprovincial migration and affordable homeownership. Ontario, British Columbia and Qubec will see significant drops in housing starts compared to other regions. The Atlantic regions economy remains stable and moderate relative to other regions. https://assets.cmhc-schl.gc.ca/sites/cmhc/professional/housing-markets-data-and-research/market-reports/housing-market-outlook/2023/housing-market-outlook-spring-2023-en.pdf?rev=5c29bc91-2310-435f-b2c9-b801866d0ede
