Join real estate analyst Daniel Foch for the latest Monthly Market Call, presented in partnership with Real Estate Magazine. In this wide-ranging, data-driven session, Daniel breaks down the economic forces and market dynamics shaping Canadian real estate, from slowing population growth and employment trends to inflation, interest rates, mortgage borrowing and shifting housing supply.

Topics covered:

• What Canada’s slowing population growth means for housing demand — and why recent Statistics Canada revisions changed the picture
• Why population and housing market trends are diverging across Ontario, B.C., Alberta and Atlantic Canada
• What the latest employment data says about the economy and why local job conditions increasingly matter for housing
• How higher fuel costs could put additional pressure on inflation and household budgets
• Why mortgage interest is putting less upward pressure on shelter inflation, even as rents remain a factor
• Why rising bond yields are putting upward pressure on fixed mortgage rates
• Whether the Bank of Canada could face pressure to raise rates and why the Canadian dollar could factor into its next decisions
• Why variable-rate mortgages have become increasingly popular with Canadian borrowers
• Why national home sales remain subdued and what is keeping buyers on the sidelines
• How sellers pulling listings could gradually shift the balance between buyers and sellers
• Why Ontario’s pre-construction market may be pulling some buyers away from the resale market
• Why housing markets in Ontario and B.C. continue to diverge from more affordable markets such as Alberta and parts of Atlantic Canada
• What real estate professionals should watch in their own local economies as national housing trends become increasingly fragmented.
