Good news for Homeowners!

Overnight rate cut

The overnight rate cut announcement made by the Bank of Canada on Wednesday, certainly did take everyone by surprise. Bank of Canada’s reason for the overnight rate cut to 0.75 percent is as a result of all-time low oil prices. This certainly is good news for you homeowners and prospective homeowners.
