Bank of Canada Holds Rates at 2.75% — But Lenders Are Still Saying No. Here’s Why Canadians Are Turning to Lendworth Instead

Despite the Bank of Canada holding interest rates at 2.75% on June 4th, many borrowers are still getting declined. Discover how Lendworth is helping Canadians access fast, flexible mortgage solutions in 2025.

📅 June 4, 2025 — The Bank of Canada just made its move: interest rates are holding steady at 2.75%.

Cue the headlines:

“Rate Stability Returns!”

“Mortgage Relief Coming!”

“Time to Borrow?”

But here’s what most Canadians are really asking:

“So why is my mortgage still being denied?”

📉 A Rate Hold Isn’t a Green Light — For You

Yes, the BoC held rates.

No, that doesn’t mean borrowing just got easier.

In fact, banks are still saying no at record levels — even with equity, even with decent credit, even with a solid plan.

❌ Why Canadians Are Still Getting Denied in June 2025

  • Banks still require strict stress test qualifications
  • Self-employed borrowers are being flagged
  • Property types outside urban cores are getting rejected
  • Refinances and equity take-outs face tighter restrictions
  • Approvals are slower than ever in a cooling market

And all while interest rates remain historically elevated.
