 Bank of Canada Rate Cut: What It Means for Home Sellers!

The Bank of Canada has reduced its policy rate by 25 basis points to 2.75%, signaling a shift in the real estate landscape. With inflation hovering near the 2% target and economic growth outpacing expectations at 2.6% in Q4 2024, past rate cuts have already boosted consumer spending and housing activity. However, rising trade tensions and new tariffs from the U.S. could slow future growth, impacting both buyer sentiment and business investment. The labour market remains stable, but signs of slowing job creation suggest that economic momentum may wane in the coming months.

For sellers, this rate cut presents an opportunity to capitalize on motivated buyers who are eager to secure financing before further economic uncertainty affects market confidence. With inflation expected to rise to 2.5% by March, waiting too long could mean missing out on today’s demand and favorable conditions.

For buyers and investors, this shift means lower borrowing costs but also potential price adjustments as the market reacts to economic shifts. Strategic decision-making is key.

🏡 Thinking about listing your home? Now is the time to maximize your sale price while demand remains strong! Let’s discuss how today’s announcement impacts your selling strategy. Call me today!

Why 90% of New Year’s Resolutions Fail (And How You Can Achieve Yours in 2025!)

Each year, millions of people set New Year’s resolutions with high hopes of making big changes. But by February, 90% of resolutions fail—why does this happen?

The problem isn’t you—it’s the approach. Traditional resolutions are often too broad, lack structure, and don’t come with a plan. The good news? You can break the cycle and actually achieve your goals this year with a smarter strategy!

Why Resolutions Fail
They’re too vague – "Get in shape" or "Save more money" isn’t specific enough.
No action plan – A goal without a strategy is just a wish.
All-or-nothing thinking – Small setbacks shouldn’t mean giving up entirely.

The Solution: SMART Goals & The Kaizen Method

Instead of setting resolutions, shift to goal-setting techniques that actually work:
Use SMART Goals (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-Bound)
Apply the Kaizen Method – Focus on small, consistent improvements over time
Create an action plan – Break goals into bite-sized, achievable steps
Track progress – Celebrate small wins to stay motivated
Stay accountable – Share your goals with someone who can encourage you

This year, set yourself up for real success by changing how you approach your goals. Want to dive deeper? Watch my latest video where I break it all down!
