CAAMP says there's a noticeable trend in borrowers taking shorter terms when compared to last year., M u( w4 G3 `: d4 T! T. t- N
' V5 f7 z$ Z* [There's also a big trend towards variable rates. 40% of mortgages were variable in the past year. In CAAMP's 2007 report the number was just 21%. CAAMP says that's because "consumers may be expecting interest rate reductions." We'd also like to think they're becoming more educated about the long-term advantage of variable rates.
