I guess it's happened to others before. And I realize that I should not have given as much information to the scammer as I did, but of course that's easy to see in hindsight.

Here's the thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/PersonalFinanceCanada/comments/18dzrty/td_bank_suspicious_call_did_i_get_scammed/

Anyway, beware of scammers out there. Whether it's online banking, tenant fraud, or anything worse.

Wouldn’t it be ideal to earn huge returns in real estate with minimal money down? During the golden days of the past two decades, when interest rates were cheap, that was possible. You could buy almost any asset—not just real estate—and watch it soar, thanks to real negative interest rates (where borrowing costs were lower than inflation). However, those easy money days are over.

In today’s market, going all-in beats limping in when buying real estate. Join us as we explore why a solid deposit, despite the new CMHC mortgage insurance rules, is more crucial than ever for your property investment success.

Why have prices only seen a modest decline in the Greater Toronto Area, despite soaring inventory and sluggish sales? What happens to condos when they get really old? Will they crumble and be insolvent? What happens if I can't close on my preconstruction purchase? Should I sell first or buy first?

Let's analyze the latest data on price changes, sales volume, and inventory levels from August 2024, and how the recent rate cuts by the Bank of Canada and rising unemployment impact the housing market.

Don't mind all the jump cuts in this video, there was a lot of "umms" and "ahhs" -- I was tired when filming this.
