The Bank of Canada announced today that it’s holding the policy interest rate at 2.25%.

What does that mean for buyers and homeowners?

➡️ Borrowing costs remain stable for now

➡️ Inflation continues to trend closer to the 2% target

➡️ The Bank is watching economic uncertainty closely, but sees current conditions as appropriate

For anyone thinking about buying, selling, or refinancing, rate stability can bring a bit more confidence to planning your next move. As always, real estate decisions are about more than just rates — timing, lifestyle, and local market conditions matter too.

If you’re wondering how today’s announcement affects your goals, I’m always happy to chat. 🏡📞

When selling a home, surprises aren’t helpful, clarity is. 🏠

One option worth discussing with your CENTURY 21 agent is a pre-inspection, completed before buyer inspections take place.

A pre-inspection can help sellers:
✔️ Identify potential concerns early

✔️ Choose whether to fix certain items ahead of time

✔️ Set realistic expectations from the start

✔️ Reduce last-minute negotiation surprises

✔️ Experience a smoother, more predictable transaction
