In this week’s episode, we discuss the Bank of Canada’s quarter point rate cut and what it means for variable and fixed mortgages. We break down why celebrating lower rates can be misleading if the economy is struggling, and why understanding the risks of variable rates is critical. We also cover Ottawa’s Housing Action Plan, how deferring development charges could accelerate new projects, and the impact of the Candice Greener Homes loan program ending for many homeowners.
