Canadian borrowers were effectively denied a period of lower rates that should have extended through much of 2026. The drop in bond yields seen earlier this year has been erased, as the Iran conflict and ensuing oil shock have driven yields back to early‑2025 levels. With the Strait of Hormuz remaining under contest, bond markets continue facing upward risks and pressure, pushing fixed mortgage rates to 4.7 per cent. However, a tentative peace agreement between the United States and Iran has unwound some of this pressure. Yields have cooled in recent weeks, underpinned both by the recent peace talks and shifting central bank sentiment, helping to quell inflation concerns. Given the lack of pass-through so far from spiking energy prices into broader consumer prices, alongside a recovering but still weak Canadian labour market, we may not see a change in the overnight rate this year, despite current expectations of rate increases priced into financial markets. With this in mind, uninsured fixed rates may temporarily retrace to under 4.5 per cent in the short term as yields fall before rising next year as the Bank of Canada returns its overnight rate to 2.75 per cent.

What made this one especially memorable was the connection behind the journey. Sharing the same province where I was born and raised in Cavite, Philippines created an instant sense of familiarity and trust. something you don’t come across often. It’s a reminder that even as life takes us across countries and chapters, it has a way of bringing people together through shared stories, values, and dreams. This home is a true gem fully detached, thoughtfully updated, featuring a private yard, and nestled in a quiet, family-friendly neighbourhood in Langford. A space built not just for living, but for growing, celebrating, and creating lasting memories. Grateful to be part of this journey and to help another family take this exciting step into homeownership here on Vancouver Island 🗝️ If you’re a first time home buyer looking to purchase in Victoria or anywhere on Vancouver Island, I’d be happy to help guide you through the process. 📩 𝐟𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐣𝐫@𝐠𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐥.𝐜𝐨𝐦 📞 call/text: 𝟐𝟓𝟎-𝟖𝟖𝟐-𝟏𝟗𝟖𝟔
