In this week's episode, we delve into the very challenging landscape faced by developers across major Canadian cities, a slowing national economy, more job losses and slowing GDP all the while we see some of the highest rental rates on record. We start with the gripping tale of a Toronto-based developer embroiled in a receivership debacle, owing creditors a staggering $200 million, putting their ambitious Mimico project in jeopardy. The ambitious plan promised to transform the Mimico Triangle with an expansive mixed-use space including condos, greenways, retail, and office spaces. As the situation escalates, we can't help but feel the intensity of the struggle faced by these builders.Shifting gears to Vancouver, we uncover a web of rumors surrounding some of the city's prominent developers. Amidst a plethora of unpaid bills and multiple lawsuits, the company is fervently denying any financial trouble, with various claimants yet to prove these allegations in court. However, this is not the first time this prominent developer has faced legal issues, with previous lawsuits marring their reputation across various buildings.Amidst these troubling developments, we uncover the larger challenges facing developers in the current market. With high-interest rates impacting the industry, several projects, including one in the Metrotown area and another in East Vancouver, are struggling to meet sales targets. Seeing projects for sale and others pausing or cancelling altogether, the landscape has changed drastically from just a few years ago. Even as governments advocate for affordable housing, the reality on the ground seems far from supportive. Developers are caught between the stringent demands of the market and the need to provide viable housing solutions.Adding to the mounting pressures, the recent spike in development cost charges in Metro Vancouver has added to the financial burdens, leaving developers and eventually their Buyers grappling with how to deal with these costs. Despite the efforts to combat the housing affordability crisis, the recent move by the British Columbia government mandating high-density, transit-oriented developments has its own set of challenges and implications, further adding to the complexities faced by developers.As the economic landscape continues to fluctuate, with employment rates and sales figures witnessing a decline, the impact on the housing market is palpable. Toronto's housing market is facing its lowest sales since 1995, with inventory levels soaring to unprecedented heights. Similarly, the rental rates across Canada, particularly in Vancouver and Burnaby, have hit new highs - again! _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

Don't look now, but the Leafs are even starting to lose as a team. Mimico native Reilly Smith potted two goals, one of which was the OT winner, as Vegas topped Toronto 4-3 to win its 8th consecutive game. Even though the loss snapped Toronto's 3-game win streak, they've still yet to lose in regulation in November through four games (3-0-1). Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill broke it all down. You can bet Timothy Liljegren was part of the conversation, the 23-year-old notched two goals; Mitch Marner had the other. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Today's episode is a little different than normal, as we are sitting down with Thomas McConvey, the most recent first overall draft pick to the Rochester Knighthawks, and one of the best young players in the game. We chat about his draft process, his time at Vermont, and his career playing with his brother in Mimico. Due to some scheduling issues, we only have the interview today, and it will be a shorter podcast than normal. We appreciate the bird gang sticking with us, and we apologize for not having a longer episode this week. We are back to our regularly scheduled programming next week. As always this episode is brought to you by Cottage Springs. Enjoy the beautiful weekend and the Canada Lacrosse action with a case or ten of the Springs.
