Last week, the prime rate dropped by half a point, reducing costs for variable-rate mortgages. But fixed rates haven’t seen the same decrease. I’m Andy Schildhorn with Macdonald Realty, here to explain why fixed and variable rates react differently and how further rate cuts might complicate these choices.

 

In this video, I’ll cover:

1️⃣ Why fixed rates are tied to government bond yields

2️⃣ The complex choice between fixed rate stability and variable rate savings 3️⃣ What “Date the Rate, Marry the Real Estate” means for timing your purchase

 

For personalized guidance, I recommend contacting mortgage broker Rita Cousins, who can help you navigate these trends and find the right option for your needs. Her contact information is below.
