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.

Canadian Home Prices See Sudden End to Declines in Advance of Spring Market

Canadian home prices as measured by the seasonally adjusted Aggregate Composite MLS Home Price Index (HPI) were flat on a month-over-month basis in February 2024, ending a streak of five declines that began last fall, according to the latest data from the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA). The fact that prices were unchanged from January to February was noteworthy given they had dropped 1.3% from December to January. Considering how stable the seasonally adjusted MLS HPI tends to be, shifts this abrupt are exceedingly rare. There have only been three other times in the last 20 years that have shared a sudden improvement or increase in the month-over-month percentage change from one month to the next of this size; all at various points in the last four years when demand was coming off the sidelines. Its looking like February may end up being the last relatively uneventful month of the year as far as the 2024 housing story goes, said Shaun Cathcart, CREAs Senior Economist. With so much demand having piled up on the sidelines, the story will likely be less about the exact timing of interest rate cuts and more about how many homes come up for sale this year. Home sales activity recorded over Canadian MLS Systems dipped 3.1% between January and February 2024, giving back some of the cumulative 12.7% increase in activity recorded in December 2023 and January 2024. That said, the general trend has been somewhat higher levels of activity over the last three months compared to a quiet fall market in 2023. Source: https://stats.crea.ca/en-CA/

Bank of Canada maintains policy rate, continues quantitative tightening

The Bank of Canada today held its target for the overnight rate at 5%, with the Bank Rate at 5% and the deposit rate at 5%. The Bank is continuing its policy of quantitative tightening. Global economic growth slowed in the fourth quarter. US GDP growth also slowed but remained surprisingly robust and broad-based, with solid contributions from consumption and exports. Euro area economic growth was flat at the end of the year after contracting in the third quarter. Inflation in the United States and the euro area continued to ease. Bond yields have increased since January while corporate credit spreads have narrowed. Equity markets have risen sharply. Global oil prices are slightly higher than what was assumed in the January Monetary Policy Report (MPR). In Canada, the economy grew in the fourth quarter by more than expected, although the pace remained weak and below potential. Real GDP expanded by 1% after contracting 0.5% in the third quarter. Consumption was up a modest 1%, and final domestic demand contracted with a large decline in business investment. A strong increase in exports boosted growth. Employment continues to grow more slowly than the population, and there are now some signs that wage pressures may be easing. Overall, the data point to an economy in modest excess supply.
