The Bank of Canada announced a rate cut earlier today which is being reflected in a prime rate of 2.25% for variable mortgages. Here's an update on the current rates plus the monthly cost to borrow $100,000 at each rate (35-year amortization).
These costs are estimated based on a 35-year amortization. If you have mortgage questions or would like to get pre-approved, get in touch with me and I'll be happy to put you in touch with a mortgage expert who is perfect for your situation.
