Key Points
- The combined value of Ontario's real estate has surged to $3.14 trillion, driven by new construction projects and rising commercial property values.
- Market volatility is pushing bond yields lower, which could lead to further discounts on fixed mortgage rates and benefit those looking to secure or renew mortgages.
- Despite recent interest rate cuts by the Bank of Canada, Toronto home sales fell in July, but there are signs of a potential recovery with year-over-year sales increases in most property types.
