CAAMP says there's a noticeable trend in borrowers taking shorter terms when compared to last year.9 y6 M$ G+ i$ e& S% w9 X4 _* \
: M# c9 r* K- vThere'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.% c; y5 S4 D' V. t
