Mortgage demand brisk Demand for mortgage funds continued brisk across the country in March, although down slightly from January and February, according to Royal LePage Real Estate. This slight decrease in activity is attributed to the five mortgage rate adjustments which occurred during the month. This created a mood of uncertainty for some home purâ€" chasers, but by monthâ€"end, mortgage rates had declined once again, and sales in most centres remained healthy. ~ In addition, attractive commercial investâ€" ment properties in many Canadian centres are in short supply and this also is contributâ€" ing to the lower mortgage activity. Vancouver, with the highest average house prices in Canada, witnessed an immediate decline in sales activity when mortgage rates first increased. On the other hand, centres such as Calgary and Toronto reported only a slight decline in sales activity and remain well ahead of last year‘s activity levels. In Calgary, sales for the first quarter are 15 â€" 20 per cent higher than in 1984. And in Toronto, they are 25 â€" 30 per cent higher in some areas, say Royal LePage residential researchers. Demand for mortgages in the commercial market also has declined slightly, says Commercial spokesman, Bill Anderson.
