• What should you do if you are uncomfortable with the risks of a variable rate mortgage?
• Historically, how good is a 5 year mortgage rate at 4.3%-4.5%?
• With rates already starting to move up, is it too late to renegotiate a mortgage that you have at a higher rate?
• What is an interest rate differential (IRD)?
