    With the current crisis its hard to see a scenario of 5% per year for the next 5 years. Fair to say its a buyers market, and that can't raise the prices, specially considering the inventory sitting there. I have a condo for sale in Montreal, 475 sqft and only 2 visits in the last month with no offers, and the price is 278K, which seems like a fair deal to me when I study the area of current listings and those sold. A buyer could easily negotiate this price down.

    Good question @aman4u18 The answer is, we can't know for sure how much values will actually go up (or down). No one has a crystal ball! In the video I propose 2 scenarios (both of which are below the 40 year average): - one where values appreciate 3% per year - one where values appreciate 5% per year It's of course possible that neither of those numbers are accurate, and that values will appreciate at a lower (or higher) rate for the next few years. Feel free to take the numbers I used in the video and run a few other value-appreciation scenarios for yourself to see how those would play out. Thanks for watching!

    Nice summary. What about 1.) out of pocket costs for repair/maintenance issues in the unit? Sink/toilet leak? 2.) shitty renter - misses a payment? 3.) special assessments from condo board for bigger repairs over time? It seems to me your P/L should include some estimates for those three items. For the renter, with so many tax free accounts (FHSA, TFSA, RRSP) and index funds like VOO (earn 7% on average doing nothing) savings options have never been better. Now that interest rates have normalized ‘investing’ in real estate looks an awful lot like a speculation (not an investment) - singularly hoping bubble prices go ever higher. Could happen. But if prices go sideways for 5 years the investor will lose a boatload of money. If prices actually go lower the investor will be bleeding cash. Eyes wide open…

    Thanks for watching & commenting @vikingvancouver9832 These are all fair points! For point #2 (“shitty renter”) I would say that my comparison is focusing on renting a condo vs owning a condo as your PRIMARY RESIDENCE (as opposed to owning a condo as an investment property to be rented out). - You're right though, when looking at a condo as an investment to rent out, you definitely need to factor in vacancy rate (or unpaid rent from a bad tenant). - And yes, if the value does not appreciate at the rates I used in the video (or if they don't appreciate at all, or even go down in value!) then your financial position would be quite different.

    ​​​​@@Bondy-Sawyer_RealEstateTeam He also assumes 2008 or Dotcom crash will never happen again. Also never mentioned eviction as vacancy rate in major places like Vancouver is less than 1%. There's also leverage which I can't do for stocks unless I trade on margin which is extremely risky. I own seven properties, six of which are rentals. The income from those properties are now getting piled into my Dividend Portfolio while the equity in those properties is used to buy more properties so I have a double edge sword. Try using stocks as collateral to buy properties.

    Totally misleading analysis. There is 90,000 CAD differential which renter was saving why you are not adding that to an investment. The simplest thing you can do is put that in an ETF. 10% growth on a minimum. Second part buying a home means you have to stay at one place meaning job losses is a problems for you now. Second if somewhere there is better opportunity you can not go. Consideration - You have super stable job owning seems to good idea - You will not get more money if you move owning seems to be a good idea. - Kids Then definitely you don't want shitty shoeboxes . Its better to rent and move where you can raise your children. - Real estate is very illiquid - You are not diversified. All you money is put in one city. What is it goes the Texas way. Investment is all about risk. - Renting your house is not passive income Dividend from stock is. - You have 10 millions dollars and like to waste money owning house makes sense.

    Thanks for taking the time to comment @leetcse In the video I do acknowledge the question, "What if I were to just rent instead, and take all of that extra money that I would've otherwise spent on owning and invest that elsewhere?" And I go on to say that, for some people, that actually might be the better path forward! I do plan on doing another video that compares buying VS renting & investing in the S & P 500. - Ultimately, this video is not a comparison between someone who buys VS someone who rents and invests the saved money elsewhere; it's a breakdown showing where you'd be if you bought (and spent the $90,000 extra over 5 years) VS someone who just rents.

    @paulshealthfitness7922 Great question, Paul. I wanted the video to appeal to someone who is CURRENTLY looking at whether they should buy or rent. I thought that using current sale/rental values and current mortgage rates would be the best approach. You're right though, if I would've used a condo bought/rented 5 years ago I wouldn't have to speculate about what MIGHT happen with future value appreciation :-) And yes, I'm planning on doing another video that compares buying VS just renting and investing in the S & P 500!

    Does the land transfer tax rebate for first-timers happen immediately, or is it paid up-front and then returned the next year?

  • @Bondy-Sawyer_RealEstateTeam
    @Bondy-Sawyer_RealEstateTeam24 күн бұрын

    @CassiusJohnAdams Great question! It's typically applied immediately at the time of closing. This means that eligible first-time homebuyers do not need to pay the full amount of land transfer tax upfront and then wait for a rebate. Instead, the rebate is deducted from the total land transfer tax payable at closing, reducing the amount the buyer needs to pay directly.

    I'll bet everything I own Markham will see a double digit increase in prices this year. Rents will blow through the roof as rents are tied to home prices and not tied to interest rates. Markham will surpass Toronto as having the highest average rents in Ontario in 2024.

    Sales could actually fall as sellers already know prices will rise a lot in 2024 and in 2025. Therefore they'll hold off listing until interest rates hit bottom in the middle of 2025 to get the maximum price for their home.

    Thanks for the comment @pablosubak8567 We're only 4 weeks into the year at this point, so I would argue it's too early to accurately assess how well my predictions for 2024 have aged (give it more time!). I can tell you that we're seeing offer nights for houses in some neighbourhoods right now (and some of these are receiving multiple competing offers). So there ARE buyers out there right now jumping back into the market. The January stats will be out next week and it'll be VERY interesting to see how this first month of 2024 has played out.

    Great comment @parkerbohnn Keep in mind that many sellers are ALSO buyers at the same time. So if they wait until prices are higher to make their move, they will benefit on the selling side but NOT on the buying side. For this reason, many of them will likely be motivated to make their move sooner rather than later (which would increase sales).
