Title of the message:
How to decide when to switch from variable to fixed

Text of the message:
Our first purchase - we've bought, now we're setting up financing. I want to
go with a variable rate mortgage for as long as possible, but have a trigger
point figured out in advance which would tell us it's time to convert to a
fixed rate mortgage, or at least review the issue. I know that there's a bit
of an art to that, but does anyone have any suggestions or comments on how
they do/did it?
It's made more tricky because it appears that here in Canada 5 year fixed
rates are about .4% higher than prime - and we're getting a variable rate
well below prime.
As background, we own our own business and are fairly comfortable with risk.
We are going to fix our payments so they are approximately 40% above where
they need to be so rates will have room to float upwards a bit before we
have to get anxious.
Thanx - R.
