Bank of Canada notes inflation for February was 2.8%, within their target of 2 to 3%. They commented that the number of Canadians planning to buy a home is 2% higher than last month; and wage increases have slowed. All good signs for the economy, & a pending interest rate cut.

In a survey commissioned by 360Lending, nearly half of respondents said higher mortgage or rent payments have impacted their love life in the past 12 months. Does that mean when 5 year fixed mortgage rates were 2% (not long ago!) that we should have had a baby boom?? 😂😂

Rate Hub & other sites advertise products like High Interest Savings Accounts (HISA) with the ‘best rates’, but they’re not actually showing best rates, they show the companies that “pay them to sell their products”. The best HISA rate in Canada is @SavenFinancial at 4.15%

Tip # 2 to maximize your investment return- Don’t pay an Advisor a % of your portfolio! Investing is easy to do yourself using a discount brokerage app like @QtradeInvest. If you need specific Advice then pay a flat fee for that advice rather than pay an ongoing % of your $$

Tip # 1 to make investing easier, maximize your return & decrease risk: Invest in #ETF’s rather than individual stocks or Mutual Funds. ETF’s give you diversification & the Management Expense Ratio (MER) is much lower than Mutual Funds which means a higher return for you.

Financial Tip #5 for 2024 - Create a #Will & a #PowerOfAttorney (POA). It’s not hard & there are inexpensive on-line kits to do it yourself. There can be serious consequences, so don’t delay any longer if you do not have a Will or a POA getsmarteraboutmoney.ca/learning-path/…

Financial Tip #4 for 2024 - make a plan to pay down personal (non-mortgage) debt. Especially revolving credit, ie credit cards, department store cards. Never carry balances over month-end on revolving credit. Get a consolidation loan to pay these off at a much lower interest rate

Financial Tip #3 for 2024. Shop around for the best deal/rates for your financial services needs. In this day & age, digital makes it easy to use multiple FI’s. IE, you can’t find a better daily savings account interest rate than @SavenFinancial which pays 4.15%!! Best in Canada

Financial Tip #2 for 2024. An oldie but a goodie. Create a Budget & follow it. Doesn’t mean you won’t need to deviate occasionally, but at least when you do spend more, or something unexpected comes up, you’ll know what it does to your finances. itools-ioutils.fcac-acfc.gc.ca/BP-PB/budget-p…

Investment Advisers compensation is not tied to your investment return. They either earn a fixed fee, a % of your portfolio, or both. When your portfolio loses $$ the adviser still gets paid. There’s good Advisors out there but keep in mind, it’s your $$ they are playing with.

I get the question a lot “Should I use a mortgage broker?” My answer - There are good & ‘not so good’ brokers out there. Remember the broker only gets paid if you do the deal. So the deal they are suggesting to you could be self fulfilling. Trust your instinct, it’s your money.
