GOOD NEWS TUESDAY!!!!.....Canada home sales rise 5.5% Month over month.

Home sales across Canada saw an increase last month. Data from the Canadian Real Estate Association shows the number of keys changing hands rose 5.5 per cent in May compared to the month before. CREA says the momentum is being driven by improving conditions as expectations of both sellers and buyers are becoming more aligned. In terms of prices, the benchmark home price fell nearly 4 per cent from a year ago.

The Bank of Canada announced today that it is holding its policy rate once again.

Rates remain steady as the Bank continues to weigh inflation, economic growth, and ongoing market conditions. For homeowners and buyers, this means the current window of stability remains open — but it may not stay that way forever.

Here’s why that matters:

If you have a mortgage renewal coming up, now is a great time to start exploring your options before timelines become tighter.

If you're carrying higher-interest debt, this may be an opportunity to review whether consolidating could improve your monthly cash flow.

And if you're planning to buy your first home, understanding your numbers today can help you move quickly when the right opportunity comes along.

The reality is that nobody knows exactly where rates will be six months from now. What we do know is that the people who plan ahead usually have more options available to them.

If you'd like a personalized review, simply reply with one of the following:

Renewal – if your mortgage is coming up for renewal within the next 18 months
Review – for a quick mortgage, rate, or payment assessment
Plan – if you're considering buying your first home or making a move in the future
