Oil Prices and Why Your Mortgage Just Got Expensive
In this week’s episode of the Ottawa Real Estate Podcast, we discuss how global geopolitical conflicts are quietly influencing mortgage rates across Canada and why markets react so quickly to international events. We break down how oil prices, inflation pressures, and bond markets connect directly to the mortgage rates Canadians see today.
We also talk about the latest market activity heading into the spring surge, the shifting housing supply across Canada, and why the role of mortgage brokers is becoming more important in today’s environment.
