Demand for mortgages in Barbados remains “robust” says Vice-president of Investment Management Services Asset Management at Sagicor Dexter Moe.He expects the trend to continue because of Barbadians’ desire to own their own homes. He said that Sagicor is providing financing solutions for low, middle and high-income earners, offering rates from as low as 3.25 per cent for home purchase, construction and to switch mortgages in addition to land loans at just under five per cent for those seeking to own a piece of the rock.His comments were made to members of the media on Saturday at Sagicor’s ‘Home Sweet Home’ Mortgage Fair on the grounds of its Wildey offices, where over 20 exhibitors from within the mortgage industry showcased their offerings to the constant stream of interested members of the public.Commending the company for its offerings across the economic brackets, Minister of Housing, Lands and Maintenance Dwight Sutherland advised other financial institutions to do the same, stressing the need for low-income earners to be able to own homes.
