Variable rate mortgages in Canada typically require borrowers to make regular payments in fixed amounts. WHAT IS THE EXTENT OF MORTGAGE AMORTIZATION EXTENSION? Both banks had no variable-rate mortgages with amortizations greater than 30 years prior to the start of rate hikes. If interest rates stay high over the next few years, as the central bank has warned, it raises questions about customers' ability to service bigger than anticipated debt at higher rates during renewals. The big banks said most customers are able to cope with higher interest rates as they had passed a rigorous stress test to handle higher interest rates.

☆ People Are Using Mortgage Points to Lower Their Rates—Are They Worth It?
▼ + stars: | 2023-06-24 | by ( Michele Lerner | ) www.wsj.com time to read: +6 min

A recent analysis by Zillow Home Loans found that nearly 45% of borrowers purchased mortgage points, also known as discount points, in 2022 to reduce their monthly payments. That compares to 29% of borrowers who bought mortgage points in 2021, 28% in 2020 and 27% in 2019. “We started seeing more buyers purchasing discount points as soon as mortgage rates ticked up in 2022,” says Nicole Bachaud, senior economist for Zillow in Seattle. The combination of high home prices and high mortgage rates contributes to the current appeal of paying discount points. Cash-out refinance borrowers were also more likely than other borrowers to buy mortgage points.

Recent strength in the housing market suggests the US economy may have dodged a recession, according to Carson Group. Housing starts surged nearly 22% in May while building permits also rose, indicating builders are confident about demand. "Housing historically bottomed prior to the end of a recession and has typically led the economy out of one." That's a big deal because weakness — not strength — in housing starts data has historically foreshadowed recessions. Housing starts measure the groundbreaking of a foundation and precedes sales of new homes as well as spending on home goods and appliances.

Washington, DC CNN —US home building surged in May, climbing 21.7% from April, as low inventory in the existing home market continued to boost interest in new homes. Housing starts, a measure of new home construction, came in far beyond expectations that they would decline by 0.1%, according to data released Tuesday by the Census Bureau. The number of single‐family units rose in May to 1.631 million, above expectations for 1.40 million and above the revised April estimate of 1.34 million. Building permits, which track the number of new housing units granted permits, also rose in May, after dropping in March and April. The National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index gauges market conditions and looks at current sales, buyer traffic and the outlook for sales of new construction homes over the next six months.

Other experts say buyers purchasing mortgage points can be a great strategy for the right situation.

"Being able to lower that monthly payment can really help give some more wiggle room in people's budgets and help them reach affordability," Bachaud said. In addition to higher upfront costs, home buyers should also weigh other factors before buying mortgage points.

LONDON – The U.K.'s biggest bank temporarily withdrew mortgage deals via broker services on Thursday, as the effect of higher interest rates ripples through the British housing market. HSBC told CNBC Friday that it was reviewing the situation regularly, but did not specify whether the new deals would differ from its previous offerings.

☆ Mortgage rates fall for the first time in three weeks
▼ + stars: | 2023-06-08 | by ( Anna Bahney | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +4 min

Washington, DC CNN —Mortgage rates dropped this week after a three-week climb, as rates remain volatile amid conflicting economic indicators. Mortgage rates topped 5% for the first time since 2011 a little more than a year ago and have remained over 5% for all but one week during the past year. The average mortgage rate is based on mortgage applications that Freddie Mac receives from thousands of lenders across the country. Mortgage rates tend to track the yield on 10-year US Treasuries, which move based on a combination of anticipation about the Fed’s actions, what the Fed actually does and investors’ reactions. When Treasury yields go up, so do mortgage rates; when they go down, mortgage rates tend to follow.
