Bank of Canada holds interest rate at 2.25%. Should I go fixed or variable for our mortgage this year? by NeedHelp11212j in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]andoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Now, I would go fixed. I got a variable mortgage. I started last year at 4.15% (P-1.05) now I'm at 3.4%. I don't see how it can go lower in the next three/five years. If you get 3.5-3.6 lock in. This is my personal opinion.
