7 Y2 @% M. A9 m; q7 UThere'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.2 G+ h$ }- E- ^" m! @* }: w7 ~
