lt Makes Sense To Use An Expert

Especially when dealing with complex financial matters like mortgages. Being a member of Canada's #1 Mortgage Broker Network with experts who are part of the Canadian Association of Accredited Mortgage Professionals ensures that the services provided adhere to a strict Code of ethics and professional conduct. This adds a layer of trust and credibility to the services offered.

 

Mortgage agents play a crucial role as trusted intermediaries, working with numerous financial institutions, which means they can provide access to a wide range of mortgage options. Having access to over 40 of Canada's best mortgage lending financial institutions gives borrowers the opportunity to compare different offers and terms, enabling them to make more informed decisions.

 

Moreover, the fact that your professional services are paid for by the lenders and not the clients can be very appealing to potential borrowers, as it provides an incentive to seek the assistance of a mortgage expert without incurring additional costs.

 

Shopping for the best mortgage is not a straightforward process, and it requires specialized expertise to navigate through various bank offers and terms. An experienced mortgage professional can save homeowners time, effort, and potentially money by helping them find the most suitable mortgage financing available in the market.

 

Additionally, the mortgage process can be daunting for many homeowners, and some financial institutions may not provide the necessary support to make it easier for borrowers. Having a knowledgeable mortgage agent to guide them through the process can alleviate some of the stress and confusion.

 

My clients rely on me to secure the best mortgage financing for their needs. It's an opportunity for them to receive personalized assistance, access to multiple lenders, and the expertise required to make informed decisions.

Economic growth during uncertain times

From the Bank of Canada In June, we began lowering our policy interest rate. We cut the policy rate at our last three decisions, for a cumulative decline of 75 basis points to 4.25%. Our most recent decision on September 4th reflected two main considerations. First, we noted that headline and core inflation had continued to ease as expected. Second, we said that as inflation gets closer to target, we want to see economic growth pick up to absorb the slack in the economy. Since then, weve been pleased to see inflation come all the way back to the 2% target. It has been a long journey. Now we want to keep inflation close to the centre of the 1%3% inflation-control band. We need to stick the landing. What does this mean for interest rates? With the continued progress weve seen on inflation, it is reasonable to expect further cuts in our policy rate. The timing and pace will be determined by incoming data and our assessment of what those data mean for future inflation. As always, we try to be as clear as we can about what we are watching as we chart the course for monetary policy. Economic growth picked up in the first half of this year, and we want to see it strengthen further so that inflation stays close to the 2% target. Some recent indicators suggest growth may not be as strong as we expected. We will be closely watching consumer spending, as well as business hiring and investment. We will also be looking for continued easing in core inflation, which is still a little above 2%. Shelter cost inflation remains elevated but has started to come down, and we are looking for it to moderate further. Our next decision is October 23rd. And we will have a revised economic outlook at that time. https://www.bankofcanada.ca/2024/09/economic-growth-during-uncertain-times/

TD Provincial Economic Forecast: Rate Cuts Heal With Time

Report by TD Economics Were most of the way through 2024, and the data seems to be adhering to our long-held view that the Atlantic Region and Prairies would outperform, in terms of GDP growth, this year. We continue to expect Ontario, Quebec, and B.C. to trail the pack. However, the former two provinces have benefitted from growth upgrades for 2024, leaving B.C. as the laggard. Consumption has held up well across Canada so far this year, supported by resilience in Ontario and Quebec and relative strength in the Atlantic. Going forward, a downgraded profile for borrowing costs will offer more of a boost to household spending across Canada than wed previously thought. However, a chunk of highly indebted households in regions like Ontario and B.C. will have to contend with mortgage renewals at (likely much) higher rates. Housing markets are also poised to receive a lift from lower-than-expected interest rates. Indeed, weve notably upgraded our 2024 and 2025 home price forecasts across nearly all provinces except Ontario, where strained affordability and problems in the condo sector will likely weigh. Lower rates are a benefit to homebuilding as well, although we still see Canadian housing starts cooling through 2025 given low home sales levels in the past few years. At last count (Q2-2024), Canadian population growth continued to surge. Specifically, Canadas Big 4 provinces have yet to see any meaningful impact from recently announced federal policies to reduce the pool of non-permanent residents. We expect the effect of these policies to be significant and become evident beginning in Q4-2024, providing an impetus for a meaningful slowdown in population growth across the nation. Population-fueled labour force gains have outpaced employment for most of this year, driving the national unemployment rate to its highest point since mid-2021. Notably, Ontario, Alberta and Quebec have seen the most material increases in their unemployment rates. With population gains expected to cool, the jobless rate is projected to peak at the turn of the year before gently pulling back in 2025. https://economics.td.com/provincial-economic-forecast
