In this month’s live Canadian Real Estate Market Breakdown, REM columnist and housing analyst Daniel Foch explores one of the biggest questions facing the industry: Is Canada experiencing the worst housing market in history?
Drawing on new national and regional data, Daniel explains why today’s market is far more complex than the headlines suggest. From record-low home sales on a per-capita basis to the growing divide between Ontario and B.C. and the rest of the country, this session examines the trends reshaping Canadian real estate.
Topics covered:
- Is this Canada’s weakest housing market ever? A look at home sales adjusted for population
- Why Ontario and B.C. are pulling national housing statistics lower while many other markets continue to grow
- The largest home price correction in Canadian history—and what it really means
- Why consumer confidence, not affordability alone, is holding buyers back
- The shift from condos to purpose-built rental housing and what it means for developers
- How CMHC financing is driving a record wave of rental construction across Canada
- Why developers are pivoting away from traditional condo projects
- What shrinking development projects and multiplex construction mean for real estate professionals
- The outlook for rents, population growth and rental supply over the next several years
- How new GST/HST incentives are affecting pre-construction freehold homes and condos
Whether you’re a real estate agent, investor, broker, developer or homebuyer, this webinar provides practical insight into the economic, policy and technology trends shaping Canada’s housing market.
