Housing prices are unlikely to decrease until there's a substantial increase in housing supply. there's a shortage of millions of housing units in Canada, and construction isn't keeping pace. The constant demand for housing, coupled with population growth, means that even a slight price drop attracts numerous buyers who quickly absorb the available supply.
I sold a property in Q4 of 2023 and I'm waiting for a house crash to happen so I buy cheap. In the meanwhile, I've been looking at dividend stocks as an alternative., any idea if it's a good time to buy? I hear people say it's a madhouse right now.
Considering the present situation, diversifying by shifting investments from real estate to financial markets or gold is recommended, despite potential future home price drops. Given prevailing mortgage rates and economic uncertainty, this move is prudent, particularly due to stricter mortgage regulations. Seeking advice from a knowledgeable independent financial advisor is advisable for those seeking guidance.
This is precisely why I like having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, using risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. I've been utilizing a portfolio coach for more than two years, and I've made over $800,000.
Can you provide instructions on how to contact your advisor? I'm experiencing erosion of my funds due to inflation and looking for a more profitable investment strategy to make better use of them.
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Marisa Michelle Litwinsky’’ for about two years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
Quality of life has deteriorated in major cities like Vancouver, Toronto. People of all ages are moving where they can get a better product without increasing their debt.
Technology is inherently deflationary and if AI massively helps the economy and it’s a big if…. Then rates will go back down, and I assure you this mania is not over because everyone in this fucking country only wants to buy real estate.

The home to income ratio is over 13 in Toronto. For 75 yrs it's hovered around 2-2.5.... what the market needs is a really correction. We haven't had one since the end of the previous correction between 1989-1997.
Not going to happen. Everyone is predicting the real estate market will start heating up in the next 2 months because of lower interest rates and the changes the federal government made to mortgage rules. And the long term trend of low housing supply vs. population growth is only going to drive housing prices higher. The market has already started to pick up. I have been trying to buy a condo in the suburbs of Toronto for the last month but have been unsuccessful. Every unit i try to bid on has had multiple offers.
@@hv3115 I'm not sure what numbers you are looking at, because the real estate sales are still dead. Right now, the real estate sector is tracking exactly what happened in the 90s after int rates went uninverted. So I'm not seeing a bottom yet at all. Not even an indication of a bottom. That change to the first time home buyers will not change anything at this stage. And quite frankly the gov't and the immigration numbers is completely unsustainable. Either the Liberals will keep adjusting their number much lower or they get the boot and conservatives do it for us. The whole immigration issue is far from settled.

@@dropdabeat442 Only 2-3% of listed condos are sellilng in the past two months and prices are already 7% down from last year. Investors are listing their condos for rent because they can't sell it.

Condos in Downtown are unlikely to drop in price due to the area's high density. Prices will continue to rise, possibly accelerating even further due to the ongoing supply shortage.

John GOOD EXPLANATION!! Personally we will keep looking at homes Our preference is bungalow in North York these new mortgage rules may cause properties in the 1-1.3 million to appreciate. We will observe for a couple of months - our preferred timing is December January or February. Every few months we will revisit the option of moving to a different market. Longer term forecast 3 to 5 years 7 years predict much lower housing costs. there is huge dislocation coming as companies learn to implement AI - many tech corp are reducing staffing levels and this trend will continue. It's likely as other sectors figure out how to utilize AI productively there will be fewer and fewer workers needed in most companies - Service sector has been absorbing industrial and other job losses for the past decade or more I would hazard to guess we're not more than 5 years away from having a full size McDonald's with just one or two staff per shift to do odd jobs where it's not yet cost effective to implement a machine
As rates come down. Inventory will drop going into Xmas and when spring market starts it will start with lower inventory and lower rates which will have an impact on prices a little and demand picking up.
Extremely doubtful IMO. Housing market bulls were saying the exact same thing about the market after the first rate drop, and we know what happened there. The facts are the savings rate has imploded, GDP per Canadian is down 19% in real terms since 2017, and unemployment is already at 6.6% and rapidly rising. A few rate cuts isn't enough to compensate for that massive weakness. There's no such thing as a crystal ball, but the spring market seems more likely to cause many sellers currently on the sidelines to list, thinking that the hot market will return, only to find out it hasn't.
Here in the outlying area of Vancouver there was more inventory in the summer than there was in the spring. Normal rules don't apply in a declining market.
