Government zoning most land for single family homes only prevents economically efficient utilization of the land and forces homes to be expensive. San Jose has 94% of its land exclusive to single family homes and it's got one of the worst housing crises in the world. Before asking whether government should intervene to make housing cheaper, I would ask that it first intervene less in policies that push up prices.

While I appreciate the attempt to cover this, as a Canadian it misses a lot of the nuance of what's been happening here for 25 yrs or so with regards to foreign investment into our real estate markets.. in many major cities, where new build growth was high, foreign investors picked up large swathes of apartment complexes to leave vacant (see "Ghost Floors") units or entire floors as a way to grow capital.. for 2 decades this continued to push Toronto residents to neighbouring cities that then push people's from those cities out further as well (a sort of "tsunami wave" that pushes affordability outwards).. while this new reg may not really do much, a better option would be to force these vacant spaces to be used or taxed at a very high rate to encourage the use (easier to keep a space vacant and sell 5-10 yrs later vs renters and maintenance of such)

Affordable housing is one of those topics that drive me bananas when I hear politicians talk about it. Either they're really stupid or they think we're all really stupid (or both). Most of the places where they bemoan not enough affordable housing, make it very hard to build new housing. They also push regulations to make it easier for people to qualify for bank loans that they cannot afford. which if you know your supply and demand curve, usually just causes a bidding wars that drive up home prices.

I lived in Vancouver for 10 years and for every "renoviction" and slumlord story about landlords there is another story of tenants throwing house wrecking parties and not paying utilities for years at a time (which becomes the landlords responsibility) and not telling anybody. its a wild market. for some people its just EASIER to leave it empty. and since the land is increasing in value so fast they can realize a profit without all the risk of insane humans doing what insane humans do.

If there’s 100 people an 100 homes (no families) then home prices would be stable. But make it 101 people and now there’s competition that will drive up the price until someone can’t afford it.

There are real problems that nobody wants to talk about. For example, mortgages are the worst kind of loan you can get. It's like getting a loan from a pawn shop. I'm not kidding. Another issue with the Canadian banking system is its endogamous nature. The concept of "renegotiating interest rates" is almost forbidden in other countries. You have to agree to fixed rates and consistent payment fees for the duration of your loan.

As long as people have one property the argument is applicable only to the fringe case when somebody sells bigger house to buy smaller and consume the price difference. If all houses in the economy will get stupid cheap (way below the outstanding mortgage) it doesn't change my situation to worse - I can sell my house for pennies, buy much bigger for a similar price and in the end I have nearly the same mortgage but my living conditions are better.

As a home owner in Vancouver, Canada this video is surprisingly accurate. Vancouver is at the extreme end in Canada when it comes to property costs (especially related to incomes), foreign ownership, tourism, etc. The "speculation and vacancy tax" was put in place in 2018 and applies to any property that isn't your primary residence and isn't being rented out. It's 2% of the property value (per year) for foreign owners and 0.5% for residents/citizens. This is directly targeting empty homes in order to increase supply. IMO as long as a foreign buyer rents out their property then it shouldn't be an issue. The video hints at the real issue, which is on the supply side. Incredibly restricted zoning (single family homes only for the vast majority of urban land) and onerous building regulations make it difficult and expensive to build new homes. Add in that Vancouver is geographically restricted (by mountains, ocean, US border), a tourist destination, and everyone seems to want to live here and unaffordability is going to happen.
@Themohr
@Themohr Год назад
100% agreed. I'm in Toronto, and despite making good money, I don't see home ownership as a likely part of my future. While the target of the legislation is foreign investment, I think you've done a better job than the video here. There's a lot of people who own multiple properties, and focus on revenue generation and land banking money. Our banks are totally complicit - I've known people who's advice from their banker immediately after closing one property was to refinance with two mortgages and renting the second one out. A commodities market approach to our housing market can't deliver meaningful solutions to the housing needs. And beyond the finances, the overwhelming preference for single-family homes and car-dependent suburbs constrains our imaginations and means our only real effort to solve "supply" is to just keep doing the same thing we've done for 60 years. Too bad we know that's neither economically nor ecologically sustainable.

Should have done more research into the causes limiting supply. Here in Victoria, BC, the big factors I've noticed are: NIMBYs and excessive building regulations. A lot of new construction projects can't get off the ground because of all the red tape and a very leftist, environmentalist city council that hates cars (despite the urban design and infrastructure makes them necessary for many). Trying to meet all the provincial regulations and municipal bylaws and placating local community nitpicking is such a collective high bar that many developers give up after trying for SEVERAL YEARS to get a project off the ground. Local community associations have too much power to veto projects that has a whiff of anything they don't like, and they often don't like it anyway since they (and the politicians) are mostly homeowners themselves who will do anything to keep their own houses from losing value. That's another problem: conflict of interest. Are we supposed to believe that our MPs and MLAs are really working for the best interest of renters when they themselves are almost always homeowners who stand to lose a fair chunk of their own net worth if residential real estate values ever actually drop to a reasonable level? Cronyism will be the death of our economy.

It was never a genuine state of oversupply of housing in Ireland in the aftermath of the GFC. The reduction of housing prices wasn't caused by structural factors, it was caused by cyclical factors, which are more short term temporary. phenomena. It was caused by an economic downturn dampening demand, which is temporary in the long scheme of things, while the structural problems in the housing market remained in place. Without said structural factors being changed, it was an inevitability that housing prices would return to their upwards trend once the Irish economy recovered. It was completely unrealistic to view the property price reduction during the GFC as a long-term trend.

@@jamesclarke2789 yes, prices were inevitably going to rise because they were simply too low to incentivise building but remember, there was a massive influx of labour, aside from natural population growth, which immediately left a void once the construction industry was decimated leading to ‘ghost estates’ and such. The two greatest opportunities lost was that govt could have used NAMA to complete more of these developments to bolster the market and keep professionals at work in this country, rather than ushering them (us) to the airports. The other being the same professionals could have been put to work building the social housing that was badly needed even in the boom. Somehow, the entire Western world seemed to all stop building adequate social housing in recent decades, which is one of the primary reasons the rental market is overwhelmed with people with people who ought to be housed. I can’t recall the name of the Trinity professor who stated the latter point but it’s easily observed that the construction industry was willingly decimated without remorse at time and the dismal treatment of this vital function of every economy is now coming home to roost for all of us. In other words, if govt had reversed their long established policy of [following our western neighbours in] preventing those who need social housing from getting it, they could have prevented the collapse and devastation of an industry, kept people in work and gradually built a functioning housing sector. All you have to do is read the news to see the short term thinking at the time hasn’t finished punishing us. Now, Housing For All is an open admission off past failure as we enter a new global downturn which will see enormous numbers of people who couldn’t afford a mortgage, let alone rent, let alone food and bills who will be facing the government for answers. Our govt will have to finally pay the piper

"American workers are given the tools they need to go international." 12:30 At that moment, people cross a street in New York City with a Toronto-Dominion Bank branch in the background. This was sublime. It both supports the argument that the USA is very open to foreign investment, but it also shows that some Canadian businesses are there making money.

This is a great video - amazing how hard cities/provinces in Canada make it to build new housing, it's classic NIMBY behaviour. One thing to note though, is that investors are responsible for a significant portion of home ownership/purchases in Canada (albeit, they are mostly domestic) - a recent study found that in early 2020 40% of Ontario condos were investment properties (with that figure as high as 80% in some cities).

We're in the middle of a housing crisis and a few more here in the Netherlands. It's absolutely ridiculous here and I probably won't see a future here for many, my kids and grandkids included except if you want them to live with you until their 40s. Btw, Established titles? Really dude...?

You should see the effect on a previously "rural community" that is adjacent to an increasingly popular U.S. National Park... AirBnB investors have decimated affordable housing in the area where I live..... and this is a place where the population had trouble even affording the previously low price levels.......

They tried doing something similar to this in Texas for land and people were extremely upset. Senate Bill 147, filed by Sen. Lois Kolkhorst, aims to prevent citizens, companies and government entities from China, Iran, North Korea and Russia from purchasing land

This is purely anecdotal, based on my experience living in Vancouver on a working holiday visa a few years ago. During the investment ban section, you mentioned an exemption for students. This is the primary workaround for people from other countries (seemingly China, predominantly) who wish to purchase houses as a way of storing their wealth. They will send their children to Simon Fraser or UBC, using their student visa status to funnel money through them to buy houses. The investment ban is essentially sentimental while that major loophole is open.

Thanks for the video, but I've seen other channels call out "established titles" as a scam, so I won't be giving them any of my money.
