Back in the day, when I purchased my first home to live-in; that was Vancouver in the early 1990s, first mortgages with rates of 8 to 9% and 9% to 10% were typical. People will have to accept the possibility that we won't ever return to 3%. If sellers must sell, home prices will have to decline, and lower evaluations will follow. Pretty sure I'm not alone in my chain of thoughts.

@leojack9090 9 дней назад

If anything, it'll get worse. Very soon, affordable housing will no longer be affordable. So anything anyone want to do, I will advise they do it now because the prices today will look like dips tomorrow. Until the Fed clamps down even further, I think we're going to see hysteria due to rampant inflation. You can't halfway rip the band-aid off.

@hasede-lg9hj 9 дней назад

Home prices will come down eventually, but for now; get your money (as much as you can) out of the housing market and get into the financial markets or gold. The new mortgage rates are crazy, add to that the recession and the fact that mortgage guidelines are getting more difficult. Home prices will need to fall by a minimum of 40% (more like 50%) before the market normalizes.If you are in cross roads or need sincere advise on the best moves to take now its best you seek an independent advisor who knows about the financial markets.

I'd like to hear your thoughts on possibly eliminating the GST on newly built primary homes. I live in Vancouver, and with recent zoning changes, it seems like older, larger homes are being replaced with duplexes and townhomes. These new homes are pricey, have lower square footage, and come with an additional 5% GST. If the government is serious about tackling the affordability crisis, wouldn't removing the GST be a good option?

@VK-ds2dw 14 дней назад

The one outlier is wood framed stacked condos. You can get a 3 bedroom unit at 1200-1400 sqft for much cheaper then a townhome or semi. Those low/mid rise options I think are best for densification.

Hong Kong properties dropped 40%. Macau dropped 80% from its peak. This is what should happen when properties are over priced and the market corrects itself. Let the correction happen. What goes up should be able to come down.

@stevecatpatrick8056 14 дней назад

Pretty sure Hong Kong was significantly more out of line than Canada. And if We scale it that way then we've already done that drop when properties fell after rates started hiking. I'm pretty sure prices were down 25% in real terms and 15 to 20% in nominal terms? I expect they will drop further but only temporarily in the dip and even back out similar to where we are now. It's also definitely dependent on market segment as they said in the podcast

You’re watching too much media driven data. You do realize that the majority of Canada has tons of nature to explore, access to healthcare everywhere, the ability to move around where jobs are, unionized healthcare and government style jobs. For example I live in a small town 1hr 45 minutes from Toronto. PSW at LTC long term care facility pays 30$ an hour and nursing pays 45$ an hour. Combined income is around 5k a month working low hours and able to double that with extra shifts plus overtime. Trades pay 80-150$ an hour. Even a basic labourer gets paid 35$ an hour. Rent is 2000-3000$ a month for full houses, Or three bedroom style housing. Tons of waterfront to ride your bike on trails etc. not sure what more you want in life.

@CristianEnacheRealtor 10 дней назад

Just a gentle update: "The Toronto Condo Update Condo inventory in Toronto has reached a record 10,688 units. Meanwhile, sales fell by 28% in June while this inventory rose by 16% and active listings shot up by 70%. The people who are willing and able to look for a home right now can't live in a 1 bedroom condo with a max 600 square feet. This is the classification of the vast majority of the units available for sale right now. These units were solely built for investors to rent out because at the time it made economic sense for the developers, the investors and the city to collect their precious taxes. A money grab for all involved. No one ever thought about the end user that is currently in the market shopping for a livable condo right now. Now that end users are calling the shots, hopefully developers will put all future efforts into building larger, more livable condos. "

@oceanbearing 14 дней назад

There is a big difference in sale price and the assessed value that you are taxed on. My assessed value is below 50% the value of the average sale price. So 1M selling home is close to 500k assessed for my city.

"It's a strange, strange world", comments Steve. Strange because accommodation purchases are now driven by capital, not income. This aberration has occurred because of 15 years of interest rates being below inflation, leading to massive asset price inflation. However. Can central banks continue this distortion going forward? I suspect not as the levels of debt are no longer sustainable. Governments at all levels do not understand the implications of excess borrowing and hiring as they pass on these costs to the builders and other sectors of the economy. We recently had our commercial land taxes in Delta BC increase 40 % in one year. Are we going to continue to operate in Delta? Will our customers around the world pay these overheads? Ultimately a business has to minimize costs and will relocate to a more tax favorable location. In the long run, our economy will correct for the excesses of the past, with asset values returning to normal earnings multiples. Thanks John, Urmi and Steve for an excellent discussion.

A major problem is the taxpayer is always forced to chase around developers looking for the most profit. Another aspect of not building for the end user is public infrastructure as subsidy for the developers building where it’s cheapest. People discussing this completely gloss over the value of developing at scale. Everything’s focused on developer profit and sales. A bit disingenuous of the market to claim to be there for families and the end user…all about profit and personal gain.

I'm amazed that nobody talks about the crazy charges that happen when somebody wants to move. This clearly must be having a huge impact on resales volume and prices. I mean you have to be desperate or a nuts to move. 5% to the city and province land transfer tax, 5% to the agents, add in legal fees and moving fees....in Toronto that could easily mean 150-250k for a semi detached. So imagine if your resale price is getting slammed? Bye bye 400k-500k? Maybe more? By the way, don't chase a market down. This market has not even come close to settling. It's just starting to roll over. Wages were left in the dust over a decade ago and things need a huge reset.

@freddyferg 12 дней назад

There is a politically acceptable solution to the economic catastrophe the government has created with the capital gains tax exemption on the primary residence. Allow existing homeowners to keep the exemption on their current primary residence but make capital gains on all future home purchases taxable as ordinary income. Then lower income taxes on all individual taxpayers by an equal amount. This will have a desirable side effect of lowering all home prices to an affordable level based on fundamentals (e.g. incomes) over time. It will also rebalance the economy encouraging investment in more productive sectors other than real estate and drawdown banks inflated mortgage books.

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. If your real estate professional lacks this insight, you've chosen the wrong advisor. Ensure you work with true professionals; the best aren't the ones advertising on buses, billboards, and benches.

Rich investors will just pay off the mortgage if the interest rate is too high. It only affects the real owner who can't afford to pay for renewed mortgage

Canada is a underachieving country which has been driven into mediocrity. It is incredibly important to encourage other sectors on the economy - not least industry and professional services. The real estate ponzi market needs to go.

We absolutely need to tax the primary residence and reduce income tax.

@brettthomas5605 14 дней назад

The theory always sounds great,but we're dealing with reality here. The capital gains tax on the sale of principal homes vs income tax in Canada! I don't think the minor reduction in your yearly payment of income taxes will even come close to off setting the pay out on capital gains tax! Especially if you're selling two to three homes during the course of your life! Each of those sales getting hit with capital gains tax! Plus the value of these homes will be much higher than most people's income received during the working years!

what you will get is a home tax + increased income tax :) but yeah, go ahead vote for trudeau to find it out

@alaalrashaeideh1154 14 дней назад

Exactly!!! But the original owners they don’t want that at all !!!! They want to scam immigrants and their young generations so they can spend and spend!!!

Taxing principal resid capital gains would be a betrayal. Those in the same residence could easily have a $500k gain But taxing could prevent a downsizing and retirement future much less inheritance to their kids. Only in Canada ........ ps u can not compare the USA principal resid tax due to massive tax write offs ongoing, Not apples to apples ....

We pay too much tax already, more taxes (specifically aimed at wealthy people) will just hurt our productivity problem even more. We need to attract wealth and investment to Canada, not the other way around. Look at what’s happening to California. We don’t want to do that. Man this election can’t come fast enough. Edit. America has so many advantages over cananda, they are able to tax primary residences because they aren’t squeezed everywhere else like we are. Almost everything is cheaper in America so people have way more spending power. Steve nailed it, getting rid of one of the last remaining tax shelters in Canada is a mistake.

A little dirty secret here: did you know a landlord can forcibly remove a tenant from their property by calling the police? It doesn't matter if the case is before the landlord and tenant board. The police can physically remove a tenant if you can prove that you're the property owner. I have seen this done twice. One of them had the tribunal case taped to the door, but the police still threw her stuff out and the landlord changed the key. I wouldn't advice this strategy if you want to sell the condo, but this has been done. The tenants usually don't have enough resources to sue the landlords afterwards.
