VICTORIA – The days of record low mortgage rates may be gone.
BMO stunned the market when it dropped its borrowing rate to just 2.99% last month.
And Royal Bank and TD followed suit, trying to stay competitive in a suffering market.
That all changed when the banks pulled the plug on the sub 3% rate today, due to concerns over the bond market.
Mortgage brokers say the change is nothing to panic about. The rates now sit at just over 3%.
