As the federal Liberal government makes some major mortgage rule changes this week to help first-time buyers and and others being left behind in Canada’s housing affordability crisis, my colleague and co-host, John Pasalis and I discuss the impact of these moves in an occasional series we call “Move Smartly Ideas” - our chance to take a deeper dive into housing economic and policy issues.

School’s back in session and so are we - it’s time for our September Roundtable with Urmi, John and Steve!
John and Steve take us through the latest stats and explain flat market conditions in Toronto & Vancouver and how falling interest rates and a softening economy will impact markets. We also discuss softening rental markets across Canada as the drop in foreign students is felt and revisit why demand has been the overlooked factor in our housing crisis. Also: What is the underlying factor driving the global housing affordability crisis?

In today’s ‘Move Smartly Ideas’ episode, my colleague and co-host John Pasalis have our longer-form chat about big ideas in real estate history, policy and economics.
