A lot of estimates that I've seen had fixed mortgages bottoming out around the start of next year with the first quarter all being pretty much the same. As Opendoor notes, those are based on longer term and have these rate cuts largely priced in. I'd look to convert the variable I have on the rental house to a fixed around that time. But I'll be tapped out by next spring and forced to sell. So I hope the local real estate market here holds till than. It's started to crater outside of where I live...but our prices are still low.
Yeah. Average household income in Calgary is $131k. Median is only $100k though.
