At True North Mortgage, our lower mortgage rates save our clients over $3,000 on average — sometimes up to $15,000 or more, depending on your details.

Our salaried, highly trained True North Mortgage brokers do huge volume, and we pass along a rate discount to lower your rate, sometimes with your own bank. Our rates are proven to be 0.18% lower on average compared to the big banks and other competitors, and have been for years.

It makes sense to ask what we can do for your rate.

Whether you're a first-time home buyer, interested in a vacation or investment property, or looking to refinance or renew — we have exceptional brokers who service your area and can access the lenders and products you need for your best rate and mortgage to save thousands.

Are your mortgage needs more complex? If you don't quite fit the big-bank mold, we also have the flexibility to offer you short-term mortgage solutions that save you time and stress.

Along with the federal stress test, your rate will depend on your down payment percentage compared to the overall mortgage size, your credit score and even your purchase timeline. We can help answer all your questions and outline the details so you can make clearer decisions.

Ontario's housing market cools — affordability still a challenge.

Despite the ongoing economic uncertainty affecting homebuyers and sellers, Ontario's housing market showed some summer recovery with July 2025 numbers — an 11.3% year-over-year increase in provincial home sales.

The main centres with a higher average home sales gains were London (28.3%), St. Catharines (27.8%) and Hamilton (22%). Other centres posted sales growth from 11.1% in the GTA to 4.5% in Kitchener-Waterloo. Barrie is the only centre that posted a steep sales decline of 51.9%. Although this month's sales numbers improved from spring, provincial home sales were still 12% below the 10-year monthly average.

Ontario's average home price was down by 2.4% to $846.368, still impacted by the previous months' cooling trend. Most Ontario centres experienced a dip in house prices, ranging from -5.2% in the GTA to -0.5% in St. Catharines, while the centres seeing slight price gains were Sudbury's 5% to Kingston's and Hamilton's 0.3%. 

New listings grew in almost all centres except Barrie. Leading the listing rise were Hamilton (19.5%), London (15%), and Ottawa (13.1%), and other centres ranged from 8% in St. Catharines to 2.6% in Sudbury. At the opposite end, Barrie's listings experienced a significant 50.3% dip in inventory.

Not too long ago, Ontario's weaker demand shifted the province into a buyer's market from being a strong seller's market, replete with viral stories of intense bidding wars and over-asking sales prices. With this month's rise in new listings and residential sales, the province moved to a balanced market, characterized by a 43% SNLR (sales-to-new-listings ratio) — though with a 2% increase compared to July 2024. Most centres registered a balanced market, except for the GTA (38%) and Barrie (32%) in a buyer's market, and Sudbury (70%) in a seller's market.

Despite home price declines in some areas and lower interest rates compared to 2024, house affordability in this popular province remains a challenge, particularly for first-time home buyers. Will economic uncertainty due to U.S. trade disruption continue to suppress Ontario housing markets as the year unfolds?
