Homeowners in Canada may face challenges over the upcoming year when renewing their mortgages in 2025, particularly with higher interest rates on fixed mortgages than when they purchased.  With this forecast in mind, homeowners need to be thinking about how to maintain the greatest equity in their home and ease the potential stress of these mortgage renewals.

A few factors to consider:

• How can you preserve the maximum equity if a home sale is necessary at the time of your mortgage renewal?
• If listings are expected to surge through 2025, what do you need to do to be competitive to ensure you can buy and sell with ease?

If your mortgage is coming up for renewal in 2025, ComFree is here to help, offering a service with zero commissions for buyers and sellers alike, while providing maximum exposure and a competitive pricing advantage.

How ComFree Can Help:

This helps reduce the number of “tire kickers” — casual browsers who aren’t serious about purchasing. With fewer low-quality showings, sellers are more likely to attract qualified buyers who are truly interested and financially able to make a purchase.
2. No Commission Fees — Save on Costs: One of the most significant benefits of ComFree is that there is no middleman, which means sellers don’t have to pay high real estate commission fees (typically around 5% in Canada) and buyers don’t needs to pay increased asking prices.  This saves both parties thousands of dollars, which can be especially helpful in a market where pricing may need to be adjusted.
3. Maximum Exposure:  ComFree listings receive the same exposure as those listed with any full service brokerage.  All ComFree properties are listed on the MLS®/Realtor.ca and comfree.com.  This ensures sellers still reach the maximum audience and buyers know your home is on the market.
