Bank of Canada Cuts Interest Rate to 3%: What It Means for Real Estate

The Bank of Canada has lowered its interest rate by 25 basis points to 3%, citing concerns over potential economic fallout from trade tensions with the U.S. While inflation remains stable at 2% and consumer spending is on the rise, the uncertainty surrounding tariffs could slow economic growth and put upward pressure on prices.

If the U.S. moves forward with a 25% tariff on Canadian goods, and Canada retaliates, GDP could take a hit of up to 3 percentage points.

The Bank of Canada has reduced its target for the overnight rate by 50 basis points to 3.25%, with the Bank Rate at 3.5% and the deposit rate at 3.25%. This decision aims to support economic growth amid signs of weaker-than-expected activity in the latter half of 2024, while inflation remains stable around the Bank’s 2% target.
