  • Vancouver Real Estate had another slow month. August home sales were the lowest in nearly two decades, other than in 2008 and 2012 there has not been a weaker August for sales volumes. It's a similar story in Toronto where another 20 year low was recorded. We are expecting a seasonal uptick in September, but it likely won't be much considering another Bank of Canada rate hike has once again reduced borrowing power.

    Not a good outlook for Canadian Real Estate at least until the end of this decade if not longer.
    Massive liquidity has flooded the monetary system and runaway Inflation has been entrenched in the Country's Economy until at least the end of this decade.
    Assets Prices are in Bubble territory, all across the country with clear signs of bursting (CRASH)
    The fate of Canadian Real Estate will be decided in the coming months with the Unstable, Dark, Cold Freezing Europe, and its "Growing Energy Crisis".
    Interest rates have to go much much Higher (teen's double digits) to control the runaway inflation.
    In fact, another "Paul Volker" will be needed to bring the runaway inflation under control and like in the 1980s build a sound economy from the ground up.
    A new Bank governor (Paul Volker) is needed to act like a "National Hero" to save the Canadian dollar, get rid of the bubble-based economy by raising the rates, and to stop flooding the system with liquidities in the forms of collateral debt/ money printing/quantitative easing/digital cash, etc.
    Until then, the Inflation SAGA will continue forever.

    The core BOC rate is going to 4% min. And prices have hardly reacted to the new environment. This is a overall inflation issue, and rents going up as a result of people holding their properties is a big problem that the BOC will have to deal with. It's a big part of CPI and rates will keep going up to counteract rent inflation. The 0.75% happened and next will be 0.5% in Oct.
    We will probably see a bull trap this fall, but I see a much bigger drop coming afterward. So keep holding those properties! You'll be down 20% more before you know it. I'd say min, prices need to drop below 2020 prices into the 2018/19 levels.
    Don't buy a house, don't buy a car. Especially an EV. The prices have been jumping up rationally for EVs.

      I think this is the correct take. If any asset going up 20%+ per annum this long isn't 'irrational exuberance' I can't imagine what is. It has to correct at some point.
      When it was mainly just securities and real estate going up everybody was happy. But energy, transportaiton, basic staples? No way, has to be done now.

    Toronto Dominion Bank just released its report, according to TD, Canadian Real Estate is going down and going on a very steep slope. TD predicts 20% to 25% drop, it is a very conservative estimate though.
    Canadian Real Estate is on the bubble and the bubble is about to burst.
    Affordability & runaway Inflation are two major concerns and both are nowhere near targets.
    High costs of living are the major drag for real estate in Canada.
    The Home prices must go down and go down significantly at least 70% - 80% if not the High Costs of living will never go back down and inflation will paralyze the entire monetary system.
    Real estate investors & homeowners with huge mortgages in Canada are TRAPPED in the real estate bubble.
    These coming winter months will be crucial months to predict and forecast the fate of real estate in the mid-term.
    Runaway Inflation will be with us for at least a decade if not longer.
    Some real estate investors are shortsighted and think the current situation is temporary and transitory, and like the 2008 financial crisis and 2020 pandemic, everything will go back to normal soon, it is NOT!
    The difference this time is the Global Geopolitical Crisis, with Russia and China stirring the crisis all over the world, leading to global uncertainty and rising inflation.
    Investors & speculators must make up their minds in the coming months, those days of flipping houses, and making fast & easy profits are gone for good, and won't come around for at least our lifetime again.

      I think you may be right with regards to it taking them 10 years or so to get rates high enough to break inflation. I expect the election cycle may disrupt rate increases but within 6 months to a year after elections should continue the cycle upwards. If they are serious and independent of political influence then we may get rates to a high enough level sooner.

    Far higher(+1%) rates coming far sooner by Q4..... and persisting far longer(2023/24) than most all are currently forecasting.
    IMO, nobody is accurately factoring in the currency debasement "based" COVID liquidity injections globally.... that are now a substantial driver to current appreciated asset bubble valuations ? Central Banks have NO choice but to act as aggressively as possible with rates.... the alternatives being far worse ?

      The alternative is far worse? Has anyone done a study on this to point out what exactly is meant by "far worse"? If people start losing homes soon, I don't think there is much worse than that. But more importantly, builders won't be building for less money, that is for sure. Wages aren't going down, which means the cost of labor is still high, price of land is not going down, not on the mainland at least. The price of gas is up, and the price of the material is up and not going down significantly with the imports from china going down. I don't see how the deficiency in housing inventory will fill up, except if people start moving out of major cities, which is a real possibility. That is the only way prices decrease in real estate in these major cities.

      There is always a base for support under any froth.... but unfortunately it is far further lower in relative terms for Real Estate in many markets(GTA/Fraser), all things being 'relative' during any asset valuation correction..... than many as yet are NOT envisioning under the still prevalent and crippling 'Normalcy Bias".
      While ALL inflation has a currency debasement criterion intrinsic as things cost more..... the 'far worse' scenario unfolding and data supported suggests after 14+ years post the 2008 F/C of ultra accommodative policies/deficits then followed by unprecedented fiscal expansion during COVID.... that the current cpi inflation is indeed very firmly rooted within currency debasement "BASED" Debt Instrument expansion. One needn't look any further than percentages of GDP being conducted within Debt Instruments to "see" the oncoming runaway debasement issue from repo markets to the inverse proportionality of Bonds and everything in between ?
      A Real Estate CRASH...... call it what it is.... with Insurer involvement and the resultant Financial stresses..... is a moot point if a full blown depression devoid of fiscal/monetary solution is avoided by swift and brutal Rate increases to defend currency valuations. Capeche ?

    John, it is ok to compare negative points to random dates, like comparing the peek of the market to today to make a sensationalized point and possibly supporting your feelings. At least your numbers are factual, true and well negative. However, you still must be truthful. Even with all the price drops from March to now, there has not been one month that the overall GTA average price dropped below last year's average price. So disparaging other honest and factually correct realtors in your industry is a trait that should be reserved for situations where you are right.
    This time you are factually wrong. Please check the TRREB stats for the Year over Year prices in the GTA market. Each month both collectively and separately recorded average prices over last year. While the increase got smaller each month, they were increases non the less. From March to August respectively average prices were up 18.5, 15, 9.4, 5.3, 1.2, & 0.9% over last year.
    Oh, and by the way with 40%+ less activity, no Agents are celebrating. Agents' incomes are more negatively affected by a 40% drop in activity than a 20%-30% drop in prices. And to have both at the same time is certainly not celebratory. With the reach that you have, you should be more reserved in your opinion of other agents, especially when you are wrong about them. Please learn to be more reserved with your answers when it comes to attacking your fellow Agents. Agents that are actually following the facts and not sensationalizing the market because they are emotionally attached or just simply looking for click-bate. John, you should apologize.
