  • Clearing the Home Purchase High-bar
    Every generation since Canada first became a country has made the acquisition of real estate a bit easier for the next generation than it was for themselves, that was true for me and for my parents, though now, and  for the first time in 150 years its shifting  the other way. The current generation of first time home buyers have a higher bar to clear to day when all things are factored in that any who came before. 
    The next generation of home ownership ready Canadians, mellenials, gen Z's, and other first timers have been totally blindsided by the home buying activity of their parent's generation for the past ten years and more so in the past year since the pandemic hit. Many of them wondering if there is any hope at all in continuing the tradition their parents and grand parants were able to take part in of owning a home. A look at options and opportunities that are still there when you have the right professionals to guide you.

  • Small Towns - Big Opportunities with OREA CEO Tim Hudak
    OREA CEO Tim Hudak understands political red tape from both sides and is a strong advocate for supporting the health and growth of Ontario's smaller cities, towns and commuities like the one he grew up in, in Niagara. 
    Big city living and opportunity is a magnet for the rural talent of our educated younger generations. Small city or town Ontario was for decades the core of our goods-producing economy, much of which has left our shores with noticeable economic impacts to smaller town Ontario since the 1970's. 
    Rural communities are seeing an emerging trend where many Ontarians will no longer be required to live near their workplace. And business is taking a second look at the economics and social benifits of locating outside of big cities. The exodus away from the big metropolus in pursuit of a better quality of life is underway.
    OREA has released a policy report titled Small Towns, Big Opportunities: Unlocking Growth in Ontario’s Rural and Northern Communities. An examination of our unique socioeconomic difficulties, which forms the core of a policy report offering 15 recommendations for long-term solutions to housing, education, job creation, and access to rural infrastructure.
