# W K6 O' i& SThere's also a big trend towards variable rates. 40% of mortgages were variable in the past year. In CAAMP's 2007 report the number was just 21%. CAAMP says that's because "consumers may be expecting interest rate reductions." We'd also like to think they're becoming more educated about the long-term advantage of variable rates.
