Montreal, October 23, 2024 – Today, the Bank of Canada announced a substantial cut in its key interest rate to 3.75%. This 50-point cut will help reduce inflationary pressures and bring us progressively closer to the desired 2% target.

The Impact of the Key Interest Rate Drop on the Quebec Real Estate Market

This further reduction in the key interest rate will have an impact on the economy as a whole, as well as on the Quebec real estate market. More specifically, mortgage rates are set to fall, which will be of great benefit to homebuyers. This change could make home ownership easier.

As for sellers, lower interest rates will encourage them to sell their properties. Indeed, with a greater number of potential buyers able to obtain mortgage loans, this could enable them to sell their property more quickly.
