Low Interest Rates

Sales of new homes in the Toronto area are expected to rise 30 per cent compared with 2009, while existing home sales should be up 2.5 per cent, according to a report released Tuesday by the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp.


"We have entered this year with significant amounts of momentum as a number of temporary factors have boosted sales and prices in recent months," CMHC economist Ted Tsiakopoulos said.

It appears that home buyers are trying to take the opportunity buying a home on a low interest rates. Consumers are taking advantage of the low current interest rates now on the forecast that interest rates would go up sooner or later.
