Listen "Mixed Market Conditions + Should Large Companies Buy Up Homes? — Toronto & Vancouver Real Estate Roundtable December 2024"
Episode Synopsis
It's December and time for our last monthly Toronto and Vancouver real estate roundtable of the calendar year with my co-host John Pasalis in Toronto and Steve Saretsky in Vancouver. This week, John and Steve explain why a jump up in YOY sales numbers obscures the reality of a sluggish market with some segments performing better than other and just how Vancouver and Toronto have come to top the list of the most expensive 25 cities in the US & Canada, topping LA, San Francisco and New York. We ended with a lively debate about whether large corporations should be allowed to buy homes to rent out as Canada's Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland calls for public submissions on this issue.
