Licensed mortgage broker and COO of Mortgage Outlet, Leah Zlatkin says the rate cut may help in reducing prices, but it may not be enough for homebuyers to take a leap.
“The Bank of Canada’s rate cut is a positive step, but it’s not going to dramatically change the spring housing picture,” Zlatkin explained in an email statement.
“Trade tensions and worries about a recession are making buyers hesitate. While the rate cut helps a bit, it probably won’t be enough to get homebuyers feeling confident enough to jump into the market this spring.”
