The Bank of Canada announced a 25-basis-point rate cut, bringing the policy rate down to 2.25%. As the economy works through slower growth and global uncertainty, this move provides welcome support for homebuyers, sellers, and investors across Canada — including right here in Edmonton, AB.

Inflation is now trending closer to the Bank’s goal of 2%, making this a strategic time to encourage confidence and affordability in the housing market.

🏡 What This Rate Cut Means for Home Buyers

If you’ve been feeling priced out or waiting for the right moment, this may be your opportunity.

✔ Lower interest rates improve borrowing power
✔ Mortgage affordability becomes more manageable
✔ More home options may now be within reach

Even a small rate reduction can meaningfully impact your monthly payment and qualification amount. Refreshing your pre-approval is a smart next step.

🏠 What This Means for Home Sellers

Lower interest rates often spark a rise in buyer activity — especially among families waiting for affordability to improve.

✔ More qualified buyers re-enter the market
✔ Offers strengthen as affordability improves
✔ Fall & Winter remain very active seasons for serious movers

If you’re thinking of listing soon, a well-priced and well-prepared home can take advantage of renewed confidence returning to the market.

📈 What This Means for Real Estate Investors

Rental demand continues to be strong nationwide, and lower borrowing costs can boost long-term returns.

✔ Better cashflow potential
✔ Improved financing availability
✔ Strategic entry points before prices trend upward

Investors who analyze opportunities early in a transitional market are often rewarded later.

🔍 Why This Rate Cut Matters

This isn’t just a small number change.
It could be a turning point.

📌 Buyers who stepped back may come back
📌 Sellers gain a stronger pool of motivated purchasers
📌 Market momentum is shifting in a positive direction

While the economy adjusts, real estate continues to show resilience — especially in desirable Canadian markets like Edmonton & Sherwood Park, AB.

For parents, one of the most powerful reasons to have a will is the ability to name guardians for your children. Without a will, the court decides who will raise them.

That’s a decision most parents would rather make themselves.

Your will is your opportunity to choose trusted individuals to care for your children and ensure they are raised in the way you envision. It’s not an easy topic, but it’s one of the most important.

As a Realtor, I help families find homes — but I also care about protecting the future those homes represent. A will provides stability for your family at every stage.
