Economists Warn High Interest Rates Likely to Linger\u00a0
<\/b><\/h2>\n

<\/h3>\n

Halloween came early this year for Canada\u2019s variable-rate holders, those approaching renewal, and first-time homebuyer hopefuls. That\u2019s because interest rates are expected to stay higher for longer. Canada\u2019s pandemic recovery has been rocky, to say the least, and recent data has economists adjusting their predictions for when rates will finally start dropping, and by how much. Spoiler alert: the news isn\u2019t great. BMO<\/a> has dropped its prediction of a 0.75% drop in 2024 down to just 0.5%, and moved its timeline for easing from Q2 to Q3, while Scotiabank<\/a> warned that more hikes can\u2019t be ruled out, either.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#edf7f3″ custom_padding=”32px||32px||true|false” da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” da_is_popup=”off” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||25px|||” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.2″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_text_align=”center” header_2_text_color=”#38505b” header_2_font_size=”2.63rem” header_2_line_height=”3.75rem” max_width=”800px” module_alignment=”center” header_2_font_size_tablet=”32px” header_2_font_size_phone=”27px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_2_line_height_tablet=”3.75rem” header_2_line_height_phone=”32px” header_2_line_height_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

The Case Against Toronto\u2019s Housing Industry
<\/b><\/h2>\n

Toronto\u2019s housing market mess has many culprits, but a class-action lawsuit points the finger at the city\u2019s top brokerages and industry associations, and this week a federal court ruled<\/a> the case can move forward. The lawsuit, brought by Toronto resident Mark Sunderland<\/a>, alleges that the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB), Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA), and seven major brokerages conspired to inflate commission fees. Specifically, the lawsuit says CREA and TRREB\u2019s requirement for buyers to pay a commission to the seller\u2019s brokerage in order to be included in Toronto\u2019s MLS\u00ae system amounts to an \u201cillegal arrangement.\u201d<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” height=”30px” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”21px” text_line_height=”1.6em” header_2_font=”||||||||” header_2_font_size=”36px” header_2_line_height=”1.3em” header_3_font_size=”1.25rem” header_3_line_height=”1.88rem” header_4_font=”|700|||||||” header_4_font_size=”1.25rem” header_4_line_height=”1.88rem” custom_padding=”||0px|||” text_font_size_tablet=”21px” text_font_size_phone=”16px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_2_font_size_tablet=”36px” header_2_font_size_phone=”25px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

Why Canada\u2019s Housing Affordability Targets Are Becoming a Joke \u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

<\/h3>\n

The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation says<\/a> Canada needs to build 3.5 million homes by 2030 to bring affordability back to 2004 levels. A recent report<\/a> by BMO says there ain\u2019t no way that\u2019s gonna happen (in slightly different words). The aptly titled \u201cPie in the Sky on Housing Supply\u201d report notes that hitting the target would require adding 500,000 units yearly, which seems far-fetched when you consider that the country\u2019s record of 273,00 was set all the way back in 1976. \u201cIn other words,\u201d write the authors, \u201cthe bar is not going to be approached, let alone cleared.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider show_divider=”off” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” height=”30px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”21px” text_line_height=”1.6em” header_2_font=”||||||||” header_2_font_size=”36px” header_2_line_height=”1.3em” header_3_font_size=”1.25rem” header_3_line_height=”1.88rem” header_4_font=”|700|||||||” header_4_font_size=”1.25rem” header_4_line_height=”1.88rem” text_font_size_tablet=”21px” text_font_size_phone=”16px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_2_font_size_tablet=”36px” header_2_font_size_phone=”25px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

Greenbelt Battle Comes to an End\u2026 for Now\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

This is how the <\/span>Greenbelt saga<\/span><\/a> ends \u2014\u00a0not with a builder\u2019s bang, but a Premier\u2019s whimper. After one year, two bombshell investigations, four high profile resignations over $8.3 billion worth of land, the Greenbelt is back to where it started. Late last week Premiere Ford <\/span>announced a<\/span><\/a> reversal of his decision to dish out high value land to connected developers, and now the <\/span>provincial legislature<\/span><\/a> is debating the best way to ensure it remains protected. That doesn\u2019t mean the bickering is over, as opposition leaders <\/span>demanded answers<\/span><\/a> over a related adjustment to Hamilton\u2019s city limits that benefitted connected developers.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#f0faf4″ min_height=”334.8px” custom_padding=”3px||0px|||” da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” global_module=”849″ saved_tabs=”all” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” da_is_popup=”off” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” _builder_version=”4.20.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”|auto|3px|auto||” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”60px||43px||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”||65px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.2″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_text_align=”center” header_2_text_color=”#38505b” header_2_font_size=”2.63rem” header_2_line_height=”3.2rem” custom_margin=”||25px|||” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”||||false|true” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” header_2_font_size_tablet=”2.63rem” header_2_font_size_phone=”2rem” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_2_line_height_tablet=”3.75rem” header_2_line_height_phone=”2.5rem” header_2_line_height_last_edited=”on|desktop” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]

Toronto\u2019s housing market might be bad, but it\u2019s not the worst in the world \u2014 at least not anymore. One year after <\/span>ranking first<\/span><\/a> on UBS\u2019s Global Real Estate Bubble Index, the Six is <\/span>now <\/span><\/a>\u00a0the world\u2019s seventh riskiest housing market, dropping from \u201cbubble\u201d territory to a slightly less scary \u201covervalued\u201d designation. The firm notes that higher interest rates have brought stability back to the market, ending Toronto\u2019s three-year reign among the top-three most overheated markets within the 25 included in the report. That puts its risk levels above Vancouver\u2019s, but well behind the bubbly markets of Zurich and Tokyo<\/span>
