With inflation easing but core inflation still sticky, policymakers are taking a cautious, data-driven approach. While markets anticipate potential rate cuts later this year, trade tensions and economic uncertainties are keeping the BoC in a holding pattern.

🏠 Freehold vs Leasehold in Canada — what’s right for you? Dive into the pros and cons of each:

✨ Freehold grants full ownership of both building and land—greater control, better resale value, and stronger mortgage options.

💰 Leasehold is more affordable upfront and often available in prime locations, but limits flexibility: you own the unit, not the land, face potential rent hikes, renewal uncertainty, and resale challenges.

Understand costs, control, financing, and long-term value before choosing.
