Canada's housing market continues to defy the narrative of a nationwide downturn. While British Columbia and Ontario have experienced meaningful price declines since the market peak in 2022, the rest of the country has largely moved in the opposite direction. Home prices have risen across every other province, with New Brunswick leading the way at more than 40% growth. The data serves as a reminder that there is no singular Canadian housing market—only a collection of regional markets moving at very different speeds.Recent national housing data paints a picture of cautious stabilization. Sales activity has improved from the sluggish pace seen earlier in the year, inventory levels have returned closer to long-term averages, and average sale prices have posted modest gains. Yet beneath the surface, transaction volumes remain well below the extraordinary levels recorded during the pandemic-era boom. Prices may be holding in many regions, but activity remains subdued, suggesting buyers and sellers are still adjusting to a higher-rate environment.At the same time, Canada's homeownership rate continues to trend lower, particularly among younger generations. Census data shows substantial declines in ownership among Canadians in their late twenties and early thirties, raising important questions about the country's long-term housing trajectory. While affordability is often cited as the primary culprit, the composition of new housing supply may be playing an equally important role. Detached homes and family-oriented ownership products are becoming increasingly scarce, while condominium construction continues to dominate many urban markets. The result is a housing system that increasingly encourages renting over ownership.The implications extend far beyond housing itself. Homeowners in Canada are significantly wealthier than renters on average, and the gap widens over time. As ownership rates decline, concerns surrounding wealth inequality, social mobility, and economic opportunity continue to grow. If the majority of future housing stock is designed primarily for rental occupancy, Canada may find itself facing broader economic and demographic challenges in the years ahead.Meanwhile, Vancouver is preparing for one of the most significant zoning shifts in recent memory. The City's proposed Village Plan would effectively pre-zone approximately 13,000 properties across 17 neighbourhood hubs, allowing buildings up to six storeys without the lengthy rezoning process that has historically slowed development. Supporters view the initiative as a meaningful step toward increasing housing supply and creating more walkable communities. Critics question whether neighbourhood infrastructure, parking, and community character can absorb such rapid change.Yet the largest question may not be whether these projects can be approved, but whether they can be built. A closer examination of development economics reveals that many proposed projects operate on remarkably thin margins. Rising land costs, elevated construction expenses, financing challenges, and softening demand have left little room for error. Even under optimistic assumptions, many developments appear only marginally viable.That reality was underscored by an unprecedented decision from the Urban Development Institute, which cancelled its 2026 Awards of Excellence. The organization cited worsening development conditions and a growing cost-of-delivery crisis that is making new housing increasingly difficult to build throughout British Columbia. The cancellation serves as a symbolic acknowledgment of the pressures facing an industry that is simultaneously being asked to deliver more housing while confronting some of the most challenging economics in decades.Construction activity reflects a similar tension. Housing starts remain historically elevated thanks to a surge in purpose-built rental construction, but recent data suggests momentum may be slowing. British Columbia posted a significant decline in starts, while performance varied considerably between municipalities. The risk is that today's projects represent the final wave of developments approved under more favourable conditions, with future supply potentially constrained by worsening project economics.Beyond housing, global events are beginning to influence the outlook for inflation and interest rates. As tensions in the Middle East appear to ease, oil prices have retreated sharply, helping lower inflation expectations and bond yields. For borrowers, this represents a welcome development, as lower bond yields typically support lower fixed mortgage rates. However, central banks remain cautious. Stronger economic data in the United States and a resilient labour market have increased expectations that interest rates could remain elevated longer than previously anticipated.At the household level, financial stress continues to build. Consumer insolvencies are rising across Canada, with particularly sharp increases in British Columbia and Ontario. Bankruptcy filings have accelerated as declining home prices reduce homeowners' ability to refinance debt or access home equity. Yet paradoxically, Canadian household net worth continues to reach record highs. The result is a growing disconnect between balance-sheet wealth and day-to-day affordability.That contradiction may ultimately define the current economic cycle. On paper, Canadians remain extraordinarily wealthy. In practice, many households are feeling increasing financial pressure from higher borrowing costs, elevated living expenses, and slower economic growth. The gap between what the data says and what Canadians experience in everyday life continues to widen, creating one of the most important economic stories facing the country today._________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

I thought bidding wars were supposed to be over? I guess not.We just listed a starter home in #Leslieville, an urban community just outside #downtowntoronto, expecting a normal negotiation. Instead, we ended up with a frenzy that drove the price to 120% of asking.We priced it at fair market value. So why did the buyers go crazy?Watch this offer night recap to find out why this specific home sparked a bidding war, and whether this is a signal that the #Toronto market is heating up again—or if it's a trap.Watch this podcast on YouTube: https://youtu.be/LeWc0Jv1_ScSchedule a 15-minute appointment to chat with me here: https://www.broadviewavenue.ca/appointmentsDownload our guides here:How to Ask Your Parents For Help: https://www.broadviewavenue.ca/family-support-for-fthbThe Toronto Professional's Guide to Real Estate Investing: https://www.broadviewavenue.ca/guide-download▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬Subscribe now to keep updated for more information.If you want to chat with us, do the following:1.

Send us a textIn the first episode of the new year, David Fleming encouragers listeners not to obsess over all the “predictions” floating around out there, but rather understand the issues, trends, hot topics, blind spots, and market vulnerabilities, which help market participants to remain alert and attentive to what's really going on in the market. This episode dives into how market shocks like interest rate cuts, tariffs and trade wars, and economic uncertainty reshaped the market in 2025, why sales activity matters more than headline prices, and why the Toronto condo market isn't nearly as dire as many believe (at least on the resale side).David also explores why the pre-construction condominium industry may be fundamentally broken, how housing affordability differs across Canada, and whether Ontario residents will increasingly look elsewhere.

Toronto real estate feels uncomfortable right now. Prices have softened, headlines are pessimistic, and a lot of people are questioning whether owning real estate here still makes sense at all. Some are calling this the end of the housing boom. Others think the system is broken beyond repair.But I don't see it that way. I want to walk you through how I'm actually thinking about the Toronto housing market today.

As we head into 2026, population is no longer just another economic talking point — it has become one of the single most powerful forces reshaping Canadian real estate & the economy. For the first time in modern history, Canada's population is shrinking, and the effects are immediate and profound. Ontario and British Columbia — the country's largest and most expensive markets — are now posting negative annual population growth for the first time ever. After years of record inflows, the pendulum has swung sharply in the opposite direction. Non-permanent residents are leaving in record numbers, permanent residents are quietly exiting the country at near-historic highs, and government targets suggest this outflow may continue for the next two years. The last time Canada experienced a demographic shock, it was driven by rapid population acceleration — and it rewrote housing dynamics overnight. Now we are watching the same type of historic shift, only in reverse, and the consequences are every bit as significant.Those consequences are already showing up in the housing market. Canada is delivering the largest volume of purpose-built rental construction in history at the exact moment demand is softening. Rental inventory is surging, vacancy rates are climbing, incentives are returning, and the national market is clearly moving toward cheaper, more competitive rents. That may temporarily make renting feel like the smarter financial move, but history is unequivocal: the long-term wealth gap between renters and owners remains enormous, and demographic shifts don't change that reality. Nowhere is this more evident than in Toronto, where the condo market has all but stalled — sales have collapsed from record highs to generational lows, new project launches have effectively halted, and completed but unsold units are stacking up at levels never recorded before. It is the clearest example of what happens when the wrong kind of supply finally outruns broad market demand in an economy built on perpetual growth assumptions. Currently, dwellings under construction is running at 500% more than the population growth rate when the historical average is 50%.And yet, the broader economy still sends mixed signals. Mortgage growth has recently ticked up, supported largely by first-time buyers stepping in where investors and move-up purchasers have stepped back. Retail spending shows households remain cautious. Sentiment readings are improving - considerably in the business sector but insolvencies in places like B.C. are quietly hitting new records. At the same time, household net worth is sitting at all-time highs, driven by financial markets that reward those already positioned at the top. 20% of Canadians own 70% of Canadian Assets! Affordability, meanwhile, has “improved” — but only relative to a crisis peak. Even after seven quarters of easing, ownership costs are still near the worst levels Canada has ever seen, and with rates likely holding into 2026, further progress may need to come from unpopular but necessary price declines rather than overall policy relief. In this weeks podcast, we break down this critical demographic turning point — what a shrinking population truly means for housing demand, pricing power, rental markets, developers, mortgage holders, and anyone trying to make a disciplined real estate decision in the year ahead. _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

Canada's housing market is being battered from every angle, and the cracks are widening into a full-blown crisis. Population growth, the single biggest driver of housing demand, has nearly stalled. Statistics Canada reported Q2 growth of just 47,000 people — a 0.1% increase and the second-slowest pace since 1946, excluding the pandemic. For a country that has leaned heavily on immigration to fuel housing, GDP, and tax revenues, this 80-year low is seismic. Developers who banked on endless inflows are now sitting on record inventories, while Vancouver and Toronto — the markets most dependent on population surges — are already showing demand erosion and softening rents.At the same time, supply battles are intensifying. Century Group's Tsawwassen redevelopment was slashed from 1,433 homes to just 600 after NIMBY pushback, despite meeting planning requirements. In Burnaby, petitions against densification threaten to stall family housing. This kind of resistance highlights how hard it will be for cities to meet ambitious housing targets.Meanwhile, renters are gaining some leverage. Vancouver rents are falling, down 9.3% year-over-year to $2,825, and rental starts have surged to record highs. Landlords are offering concessions, a sharp reversal from the bidding wars of recent years.Toronto, however, is flashing red. Power-of-sale listings — Ontario's faster foreclosure alternative — have exploded 14-fold since 2021, now averaging 140 a month and hitting a record 1,200 active listings. Distressed sales are growing while resale volumes remain stuck near generational lows.National home prices reveal a market split in two. The benchmark fell 20% from the 2022 peak to $686,800, but this correction is almost entirely in Ontario and B.C. Ontario prices are down 26%, B.C. 12% — yet eight of ten provinces hit new record highs this year, with Newfoundland leading.Zooming in, Vancouver's inventory has soared to 18,100 homes — the highest in 12 years — while the benchmark price fell for the fifth straight month. Toronto's market is drowning in inventory, with prices down $312,000 from peak. Together, these metros are dragging national averages while the rest of Canada continues to climb.This isn't just a cooling cycle — it's a structural reckoning. Population growth is slowing, supply is stalling under community resistance, rents are correcting, and distressed sales are rising. The fundamentals that fuelled Canada's boom — immigration, cheap credit, and confidence — are eroding. The fight for affordability and stability is only just beginning. _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

Brian Crombie is joined by Olga Donchenko who is a luxury real estate professional with Re/Max Realtron Barry Cohen Homes. She sold her first home at just 18, and since then has built a career spanning over 20 years, helping everyone from first-time buyers to seasoned developers. With a master's in Economics from the University of Toronto and a background consulting for the Ministry of Health, she brings a unique financial perspective to real estate.Beyond the numbers, what drives Olga is making a lasting impact—many of her clients have become lifelong friends. Today, she's not only here as a trusted voice in Toronto real estate, but also as a speaker at the upcoming MOMbition event, where she'll share her talk on “Perfection is the Enemy.”

The spring market is all but dead in 2025. That much is clear. The traditional seasonal surge in home sales that typically arrives in March and April has simply failed to show up. Home sales across Canada remain at multi-decade lows, with April currently trending a shocking 33% below last year—an already sluggish benchmark in itself. The market remains paralyzed under the weight of higher interest rates and high home prices, both of which are now colliding with a wave of mortgage renewals, Trump-imposed tariffs, and an upcoming federal election. These compounding pressures have Canadians turning their attention away from housing, choosing caution and savings over real estate.And yet, below the surface, the long-term trajectory of the Canadian real estate market is beginning to reveal itself. This episode dives deep into the undercurrents—employment, arrears, monthly payments, national inventory, and new housing construction—to show you where the market is heading next, even if you're not planning a move anytime soon. One revealing example is a recent court-ordered sale we just attended. Despite going through a complex legal foreclosure process, the property still attracted multiple offers and sold over asking—showing us that demand isn't dead, just dormant and highly specific.But here's where the tone starts to shift. Monthly mortgage payments have started to trend downward from their 2023 peak of $3,400, and if the Bank of Canada cuts rates to 2% as forecasted by many Banks, we could see payments fall by 30%. Combine that with the fastest wage growth in 25 years and the highest household savings rate in three decades, and you begin to understand why buyer intentions are beginning to creep back into the market —albeit modestly. Renters planning to buy are up from 17% to 19%, and existing homeowners considering a purchase rose from 14% to 16%. With sales at 30+ year lows, these early signs of returning confidence could be the start of the next upswing in the market cycle.Inventory is also building. Active listings in February rose 13.1% year-over-year, and while we're still below the long-term average, the trend is undeniable. In Toronto, March condo listings hit a record 5,500 in one month. The sales-to-new-listings ratio has dropped below 30% for the first time since 1991, and condo prices are already down nearly 5% year-over-year. Pre-sale condo activity has collapsed. In Toronto, only 152 new condos sold in the last month—down 95% from the 2022 peak. At this pace, new completions are projected to fall from over 30,000 in 2025 to fewer than 5,000 by 2029.And yet, even this bleak data paints a roadmap. With fewer completions ahead, the pre-sale condo market may re-emerge as a viable opportunity once the correction has taken place—just not in 2025 and potentially not until 2027 or 2028. For now, returns are still negative, but improving, with cash flow losses narrowing and principal paydown delivering small but positive equity growth. As cycles go, we are in the trough. But every cycle turns, the question is when. _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

The Toronto real estate market is making national headlines, with growing concerns about a condo crisis that has both buyers and developers feeling the pressure. In this episode, we sit down with renowned Toronto Realtor Tom Storey to break down what's really happening on the ground. With reports of buyers failing to close on pre-sale units and developers facing insolvency, we discuss how these issues are playing out in real-time and whether they're as severe as they sound. Are condos the only segment struggling, or is the slowdown affecting all types of housing? And how does Toronto's market compare to what we're seeing here in Vancouver? With both cities navigating high borrowing costs, policy roadblocks, and affordability concerns, we examine the parallels and key differences between the two.A record-low number of new projects launched in January, raising questions about whether developers will be on pause for most of 2025. We explore whether rising development charges, lengthy permit processes, and shifting buyer demand are keeping new housing from coming to market. These same issues have been major inhibitors to new supply in B.C., and we compare how government policies in both provinces are shaping future development. Additionally, with 50%+ of Canadian mortgages set to renew at significantly higher rates over the next two years, we assess how this looming financial pressure could impact both homeowners and investors. Are investors checking out of the market entirely, or are new opportunities emerging in the current landscape?Beyond the immediate slowdown, we also look at long-term structural issues. Toronto, much like Vancouver, has long been criticized for its lack of "Missing Middle" housing—smaller, multi-unit developments that could provide a bridge between high-rise condos and detached homes. We ask Tom whether Toronto has made any meaningful progress in addressing this gap and if there are solutions that could help increase supply. We also touch on the contentious topic of Ontario's Greenbelt—could opening up more land be a solution to affordability and supply issues, or would it create more problems? Additionally, with new tariffs looming over the construction industry, we analyze the potential ripple effects on housing costs and supply.Despite the uncertainties, market shifts often bring opportunities. Tom shares insights on where buyers and investors should be looking right now, what strategies are working for those still active in the market, and what potential silver linings could emerge from this downturn. And while there are real concerns about the future, there are also reasons for optimism. We wrap up by asking Tom what excites and scares him most about the future of Toronto real estate and how the market might evolve over the next few years. If you're looking for a deep dive into one of Canada's most talked-about real estate markets—and how it compares to Vancouver—this is an episode you won't want to miss! _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

Housing inventory is surging across Canada, with cities like Vancouver and Toronto seeing multi-year highs in new listings—Vancouver up 33% YoY (a 13-year high) and Toronto spiking 49% YoY (a 16-year high). This sudden jump in supply is driven by a mix of record completions, stricter tenancy laws, and struggling investors selling off properties due to rising mortgage costs and softening rental markets. Buyers, however, are staying on the sidelines, hesitant amid economic uncertainty, high borrowing costs, and the looming threat of tariffs, setting up a volatile 2025 housing market. In this episode, we break down these trends and explore whether demand will rise enough to absorb the flood of new listings—or if prices will continue their downward trajectory.At the same time, Canada's job market data is sending mixed signals. While official reports show strong job growth, deeper payroll data indicates three consecutive months of job losses, raising questions about the real state of employment. Long-term unemployment has doubled, permanent layoffs are climbing, and wage growth is slowing—all signs that economic hardship may be more widespread than headline numbers suggest. Historically, unemployment and mortgage arrears have moved in lockstep, and while arrears remain low for now, any continued weakness in employment could push more homeowners into financial distress, impacting the market further.Despite today's inventory surge, new home construction is already slowing dramatically, which could set the stage for a supply crunch in the coming years. In Toronto, new housing starts just hit a 30-year low, with only 51 new units (not buildings—units) started last month. In Vancouver, new home construction declined by 3% in December, the largest drop in three years, and detached home building permits are at their lowest level in 45 years. While today's market feels oversaturated, this drastic slowdown in development could lead to a severe housing shortage in 2026–2027, potentially driving prices back up just as they are starting to cool.With consumer insolvencies rising, job data inconsistencies, and supply declining in the long run, we could be witnessing the beginning of a major market shift. Will today's housing surplus be short-lived? Could government policies or economic conditions unexpectedly swing the pendulum in the opposite direction? Tune in as we break down the latest trends, challenge the mainstream narrative, and explore what's next for Canada's real estate market. _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

URGENT: Toronto Real Estate Market Has Only 1.7 Months of Inventory Left - Should You Sell Now or Risk Losing Out Forever? - Market Tuesday EP_30 There is only 1.7 months of inventory in the Toronto real estate market. So what does that mean? That means if we don't get one new listing or more new listings or any new listings in 1.7 months, which is less than two months, we will actually have no homes to sell. That's the simple definition. Another way to look at it is sort of the economic point of view with 1.7 months. That also means that we are still in a seller's market, even though we are down in terms of number of sales, The number of inventory is also down, which keeps it into the sellers perspective because there's not enough homes based on the demand. Right now there is more demand than product. So with that being said, is it a good time to sell? Still a good time to sell? It is not the way it used to be. Sure, I agree with you on that. But hey, bidding wars are back. That might be an indication that this might be a good time to sell. Should you sell if you need to. Should you buy if it's an opportunity that you can afford? Do you have to do either of those? Absolutely not. It is a choice of where you are and how comfortable you are. And if you are willing to invest. It is a game of supply and demand. With 1.7 months of inventory, that means that the supply is low and the demand is high. Getting in the market is a good investment.
