BANK OF CANADA RATE INCREASE — WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR YOU?

The October 28, 2026 rate announcement has put interest rates back in the spotlight.

- The reported increase of 25 basis points, from 2.25% to 2.50%, is a reminder that borrowing costs can change — and understanding how those changes affect your mortgage matters.

- Homebuyers: Review your affordability and mortgage qualification before making an offer.

- Homeowners: If you have a variable-rate mortgage or an upcoming renewal, understand how changing rates could affect your payments.

- Investors: Revisit your cash flow, financing costs, and long-term investment strategy.

The real estate market doesn’t stop moving when interest rates change. Your strategy shouldn’t either.

BANK OF CANADA RATE ≠ YOUR MORTGAGE RATE!

When the Bank of Canada announces a rate change, everyone starts talking about mortgages. But here’s what many homeowners and buyers don’t realize.

Variable mortgage rates are generally influenced by changes to lenders’ prime rates, which typically follow the Bank of Canada’s policy rate.

Fixed mortgage rates are influenced more by bond yields, market expectations, and lender pricing.

Your actual mortgage rate also depends on your credit profile, down payment, mortgage term, and lender.

The takeaway? Don’t make your next real estate decision based on one headline.

Whether you’re buying, renewing, refinancing, or investing, understanding the bigger picture can help you make smarter financial decisions.

BANK OF CANADA RAISES INTEREST RATES BY 0.25% — WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THE GTA HOUSING MARKET?

The Bank of Canada increased its policy rate from 2.25% to 2.50% on October 28, 2026 — its first increase since July 2023. The decision reflects concerns about persistent inflation and higher energy prices.

Another shift in Canada’s interest rate landscape, and one that could impact homebuyers, homeowners, sellers, and real estate investors.

- Homebuyers: Higher borrowing costs could affect mortgage affordability and purchasing power.

- Homeowners: Variable-rate mortgage holders may feel the impact, while those approaching renewal should review their financing options.

- Investors: Higher financing costs could impact cash flow, investment returns, and purchasing decisions.

- Sellers: Buyer confidence and affordability remain key factors influencing activity across Toronto and the GTA.

The big question: Will this rate increase slow the housing market further, or create new opportunities for buyers ready to negotiate?

In a changing market, having the right strategy matters more than ever.

Thinking of buying, selling, or investing in Toronto, Markham, or the GTA? Let’s discuss how interest rates could impact your next real estate move.
