In this episode of Mortgagenomics Canada, I break down five stories from this past week that could move your interest rate or the value of your home. We cover why bond yields are driving fixed rates higher ahead of the October 28 Bank of Canada announcement, where variable and fixed rates sit today, and what CREA's latest numbers say about the Canadian housing market, including the big drops in Victoria, Vancouver and Toronto.
We also look at Alberta's referendum day and its cooling real estate market, why hot U.S. inflation matters for your Canadian mortgage, and the "K-shaped economy" squeezing highly leveraged homeowners heading into mortgage renewals. If you're renewing in the next six to twelve months, this one is for you.

Welcome to the (very first) Mortgagenomics Weekly Wrap-Up. I break down the biggest economic, market and housing headlines and connect each one to your mortgage rate. This week: the September jobs report, the falling loonie and what it means for Alberta, why bond yields are pushing fixed rates higher, the odds of a Bank of Canada rate hike on October 28, the B.C. election tax debate, and the end of the federal foreign buyer ban.
We finish with the Mortgagenomics Scoreboard of home prices and rates, plus a sobering look at Canada's record-low fertility rate and what it takes to afford a family home in Vancouver.

With qualification rules as tight as they are, many buyers with strong savings are being told their income isn't enough — and the go-to suggestion is often to sell investments and put more down. What surprises most people is that there's a little-known lender guideline that can put those investments to work without selling them, and even many bankers have never heard of it. In this week's episode, I explain how it works, who it's designed for and the one condition you can't skip. If you've got money invested and a modest income on paper, this one is worth a listen.
