Inventory skyrocketing. Weird. Sales volume down. I wonder what's going to happen?

@Peter-sz1sn 28 күн бұрын

Well .. dont mention that to the talking heads. They are repeating and driving their points no matter what: demanding more incentives, all while pretending that they are doing us all a favor, working towards a common good. As if those rents are going to be affordable.

Ummm that’s for single units, not sales of purpose built rental apartment buildings. Kind of similar, not the same. Why? Because PBR gives tenants long term rental tenancy. If someone wants to sell but can’t sell, they aren’t likely to rent it out (they need it sold). If they really can’t afford to keep it vacant and press snooze by renting it out for a year, that may cause some competition to PBR rental rates, but the percentage of people in this in the market will not cause much of an impact to rental supply.

I know you’re upset about house prices, but this is completely not what this guest was talking about. They’re a builder, owner, and manager of rental apartment buildings.

Regardless of how everyone is scared and calling the crash, there is already an excess of demand waiting to absorb it, which is another reason it is less likely to materialize that way. As I will explain below, this forecast was not made in 2008, at least not by the general public. According to the other reply, the ownership rate peaked in 2004. We peaked in the second quarter of 2020 and are now at the median level. It dipped by 3% between 2008 and 2012, and it is expected to fall from 68 to 65 in the second quarter of 2024.

Most people find it difficult to deal with a fall since they are accustomed to bull markets, but if you know where to search and what to do, you can earn a lot of money. Yes, depending on how you enter and exit.

Given our lack of experience with such turbulent markets, the fact that the US stock market has been on its longest bull run in history helps to explain the widespread dread and excitement. There are opportunities if you know where to look, as you noted when I earned almost $780k in the previous ten months. I hired a portfolio advisor because I knew I'd need a sound strategy to get through these trying times.

It was run by Sharon Ann Meny, whom I found about and contacted through a CNBC interview. It has since acted as a point of entry and departure for the games we have highlighted. If tracking is required, an internet search can be performed.

1 unpopular solution to solve housing crisis: move to land tax and get rid of development taxes

@Michael-pg7rv 28 күн бұрын

Land transfer tax is a complete money grab. All it does is put resistance on sellers and they try and re-coop that tax by increasing their asking price. Overall the biggest problem is red tape and the added costs of bureaucracy.

No shit. As long as government are handing them out why not take it? Unfortunately our Federal and Provincial governments are hell bent on importing as many people as they can and they all need a place to live which is usually a rental at first. After decades of not building them, it’s good to start seeing new purpose built rentals again. The existing stock is so old and out dated we need the new buildings.

A 2.5% increase on a $600 000 mortgage is a whooooole lot more than 2.5% increase on $1800 rent. Not hard to find a new place to rent when international students are getting deported and these apartments are sitting empty. I've been seeing basements in Toronto for 1500 lately. My original comment still stands... Can't afford the mortgage? Sell it and eat the loss.

How about dropping diesel price to an all-time low This will force the companies that make the materials to lower their prices to be competitive. Next, they need to focus on the labourers and workers it’s not even worth doing this job anymore when a labour makes $25 and tradesmen makes $30-$35. It’s not worth for the tradesmen to even be there.

@@parkerbohnn In Canada, everything revolves around supply and demand, with mortgage rates being the easiest way to control these factors. My clients and followers are well aware of this. Partnering with a knowledgeable Realtor who understands the dynamics of supply and demand in Ontario's real estate market is crucial for success. The global downturn following Putin's invasion of Ukraine illustrates the importance of understanding geopolitical economics and their impact on inflation, stagflation, and market fluctuations.

@@CristianEnacheRealtor don't agree anymore though. Not everything revolves around supply and demand. We still lack supply and still have too much demand. Just not demand for the ridiculous prices we currently have, thus prices are going down or are stagnant. Mortgage rates affect deeply the market, and mortgage rates depend on the bond market, the US bond market specially. Even the bank of Canada isn't able to overcome that.

this is getting out of control. The taxpayer has to keep paying for housing. So the harder I work, the more the Govt takes to give to others. Of course the developers say we need more, the govt wants to bring more people,. This is a major contributor to housing inflation for hard working middle class.!!!!!

@martincuda7947 27 күн бұрын

Why not make rental housing businesses an extension of the civil service? We did this with ship building. Lol The fact is that people do not want to rent. We have a shortage of family homes and this is what we need to have built. Forget rental units. Government needs to start expropriating suitable land, including from developers who are sitting on land. We have the timber and mineral resources to inject into building homes in Canada and these are public resources that are controlled by our government. Our government can guarantee the loans to build homes which is not a great risk given that housing is in demand. We can nationalize or implement legislation to control our builders to ensure the human resources to build homes in this crisis are focused on the task. Democracies have the power in times of crisis to get the job done fast.
