Vancouver's housing market is in worse shape today than five years ago. Not because of Trump or the economy or market cycles, but because of misguided policies that have fundamentally undermined property rights and destroyed real estate value. SFU Finance professor Andrey Pavlov sits down with Adam & Matt to deliver his unflinching analysis of BC's housing crisis, revealing how measures like speculation taxes and rent controls have backfired spectacularly. From Canada’s shocking 22nd-place global ranking in GDP per capita to the hidden dangers of converting condos to rentals, this conversation challenges every assumption about what's really broken in Vancouver real estate. What makes the speculation tax the most destructive policy in BC history? Is government-imposed risk the actual driving force for our current market stagnation? And is Vancouver actually in a full-blown recession that nobody's talking about? Don’t miss this provocative reality check on Vancouver’s housing future!
