Are Developers Gaming Appraisals? Plus: Should a Family Buy a Triplex Together?
In this episode of The Situation, John and Davin dive into two real-world housing challenges that many listeners might recognize.
First, Maya writes in with a creative idea to tackle affordability and support family: she and her brother are considering buying a three-unit home together so they can each have their own space while bringing their mom closer as she looks to downsize from a large suburban house. It sounds practical — but what are the financial, legal, and personal considerations families should think through before taking on co-ownership?
Then, Steve from Kitchener shares a puzzling trend: while most 600 sq ft condos in his market are selling for $350K to $400K, four units in a brand-new building suddenly sold for between $575K and $650K — all significantly above the going rate. What could possibly explain such a dramatic jump in price? And what might it signal for buyers and investors watching this market?
