Mortgage interest rates have remained unchanged from last week. Although some lenders have increased their rates, the majority have opted not to buy into the hype created by the markets and held off on increasing rates this week. While lenders are still warning us of immanent rate increases nothing will budge until it is clear if jobs are being created both in Canada and the US. If you have questions about the relation between fixed rate mortgages and the economy get in touch with me to discuss.
