Vancouver & Toronto Real Estate Market Update May 2024
Ойын-сауық
Inventory is finally coming to the market providing buyers more options, particularly for condos. More investors are hitting the sell button as cash flows deteriorate due to rising mortgage rates and rent controls. Mortgage rates are holding steady, with all eyes on the Bank of Canada next month.

fear a housing crash due to people buying homes above asking prices with little equity. If prices drop, affordability and potential foreclosures may arise, worsened by future layoffs and rising living costs. I want to invest more than $300k, but I'm not sure on how to mitigate risk.

Consider reallocating from real estate to other reliable investments like stock, crypto or precious metals . Severe recessions offer market buying opportunities with caution, as volatility can yield short-term trading prospects. Not financial advice, but it may be wise to invest, as cash isn't ideal in this period.

Due to my demanding job, I lack the time to thoroughly assess my investments and analyze individual stocks. Consequently, for the past seven years, I have enlisted the services of a fiduciary who actively manages my portfolio to adapt to the current market conditions. This strategy has allowed me to navigate the financial landscape successfully, making informed decisions on when to buy and sell. Perhaps you should consider a similar approach.

There are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’ Melissa Terri Swayne” for about five aiyears now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.

I just looked her up on the internet and found her webpage with her credentials. I wrote her a outlining my financial objectives and planned a call with her.
I lost over 60k when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said. I'm still responsible. It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong. It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I found one source to recover my money, at least $10k profits weekly. Thanks Patricia Annie Brooks.

I've been noticing more neglected homes that look like they needed a roof a few years ago. I'm guessing there are a lot of investors that don't have the cash to work on these projects.
The other factor that will take pressure off rent growth (in the medium term) is a concerted effort by governments at all levels to build more purpose-built rentals. Mom and pop investors will be competing against big builders who are now fully incentivized to build purpose built rentals.

Sorry Steve - your assertion is false. There may not be a direct impact on bond yields to overnight rate adjustments but, bond yields generally react to any movement made by the Bank of Canada as well as the rate of inflation. When the BoC cuts its rate, it is typically a signal that inflation is trending downward. Bond investors like this, because it increases the value of their holdings; as a result, more investors purchase bonds, which drives the yield down further.

You are right if the FED is cutting along with the BOC. If the BOC is going alone then CAD being devalued against USD works against Canadian bonds. You could very easily see the boc cutting and bond yields not moving.

@@Jo-mf2vu I was arguing Steve assertion as presented, is false... are you disagreeing with me? Steve is generally out of his league in these macro-economic discussions... he should stay in his lane as a Vancouver RE peddler... he is not an economist... It is quite frankly eyeball rolling how many RE agents have recast themselves as pseudo macro-economists during the RE sales slowdown... Amateur RE investors should be wary of analysis by such unqualified commentators....
5% rates is cheap, its the home prices that are way too high and sales are at a 10 year low in Ontario. These people are biased, they all work and are invested in real estate. The truth is rates are low 5% is cheap. The buyers are waiting for HOME PRICES to come way down because they way over priced we do not care about the cheap 5% rates. These realtors and investors will loose money so they want to put all the pressure on rates not the prices
We need a Canadian Javier Milei to cut through all this government burocracy and spending thats slowly squeezing the hardworking middle class seriously it may be needed, everyone in the world should be watching Argentina. Milei though controversial had produced a government surplus in first quarter and the peso has held up relatively well to inflation. Government should be 20% the size it it. GOVERNMENT SPENDING IS THE ROOT OF INFLATION!!

ALL of which will be doing so at higher rates than initiation as there is NO WAY the BoC can lower rates to 'zero' again to hold against further 'debasment' based DEBT instrument expansion(~$3 Trillion Mortgage/Consumer DEBT) now already unsustainable within Gross Domestic Incomes(GDI) deriveable from within Canada's already stagnant 10+ years barely ~$2 Trillion GDP

Canadian real estate is a biggest real estate bubble in the world. Total collapse of Canadian$ is the only solution left for millennials. Ontario real estate boards needs to be completely decommission & needs a new board which will stringent buying/selling process. Canada is nothing besides a illegitimate country since colonialism & confiscated 2nd largest land from the indigenous. The world needs to boycott all the countries formed through illegitimacy. There is a reason why BRICS nations pushing to de-dollarize the world. Intercontinental trades between Asia, Africa & central/south America dont need US $. Of course, the new world order will come after a full-fledged world war 3.
