Money Baby, Money
Posted on March 30th, 2010 4 commentsWow. Have you checked out the mortgage rates lately? Yeah, yesterday they just jumped around 2% at most Canadian banks. (From roughly 3.89% to 5.85%.)
Guess who was up officially up for early renewal as of yesterday? And guess who made an appointment two weeks ago for this coming Thursday to renew their mortgage knowing that rates were going to increase soon?
Yeah, that would be me. Three days too late. Dang it! Getting a literary agent isn’t just luck and timing, but apparently getting a good mortgage rate is too!
(Don’t worry though, we’ve got a five year fixed at 3.89% locked in at ING, so if RBC can’t compete, well, you know how the story goes. After ten years of loyal servitude, I put on my walking shoes. Wish me luck!)4 responses to “Money Baby, Money”

That stinks Jean!!!
Good luck – renewing mortgages is such a scary prospect!

Thanks for the luck. I’m sure it will work out fine–one way or another!

I think timing is everything and I’m usually just a little late to every party. Best luck with the ole’ mortgage thing. It’s never fun to spend more than necessary.

Thanks for the hugs. My brilliant hubby managed to snag us a last minute deal at 3.89%. Whew! I doubt the big bank that we are currently with will be able to match it.
