It's with great pleasure today that I was invited to attend a citizenship ceremony today at the Governor General's Rideau Hall in Ottawa.  For sure the most fun part of being a realtor is the amazing people that you get to meet along the way and this family certainly fits the bill.

Mortgage Rates are down again temporarily in Ottawa! - March 29, 2011

Mortgage rates are suddenly down again for a short period - if you can close on a property in the next 45 to 60 days you could take advantage of some amazing rates that are currently available.

Despite all the hoopla about mortgage rates going up they are suddenly down again and apparently going to stay down for the next while.  So much so that some lenders are offering some extremely great rates if you have a quick close coming on within the next 45 to 60 days.  Especially the variable rates which are at prime minus 75 points and less and also some of the 3 and 4 year fixed rates are really great!
