Despite the signs of an impending rise in the general level of interest rates and warnings from government officials, I find that there is still a lack of conviction among Canadians as to whether they should lock in their mortgages at prevailing rates, versus holding on to a floating rate mortgage. It’s therefore a good time to review the facts and fiction out there so that you can make a better educated decision.
