History was made with interest rates on Thursday.
The Bank of Montreal has dropped its’ five-year fixed mortgage to 2.99 %, which represents the lowest seen in Canadian banking history.
This is a time limited offer, ending January 25, which is a move intended to draw in more real estate customers in the increasingly competitive marketplace.
There are some strings attached to this offer; lump sum payments are limited to 10 % of the principal each year. The mortgage is also based on a 25-year amortization period.
The Bank of Canada is expected to keep its overnight rate low until 2013 as well, amidst growing global uncertainty.
