10 Jan 2025Does Trudeau’s Resignation Impact The Real Estate Market 00:42:10

Justin Trudeau announces his resignation as Prime Minister amid a housing affordability crisis, following his father's historic "walk in the snow" forty years ago. As housing costs and mortgage rates squeeze Canadian homeowners and renters alike, the Liberal Party faces record-low polling numbers. Potential successors Freeland, Carney, and Fraser must now address the party's troubled housing legacy and propose solutions to Canada's real estate challenges.

  • Mark Carney's background in financial markets and monetary policy positions him as a strong contender to address Canada's housing market instability and mortgage affordability crisis
  • The Trudeau government's housing initiatives, including the Home Buyers' Bill of Rights and attempts to curb foreign investment, largely failed to contain soaring real estate prices and rental costs
  • As housing remains a top election issue, opposition parties are gaining ground with alternative housing platforms, promising to boost supply and address affordability through various policy measures

04 Apr 2025The 6 Best Ways To Find Real Estate Deals00:44:49

A comprehensive guide to finding real estate investment deals, with three main core strategies. The key to success is being prepared to act quickly when you find a good deal and having your financing ready.

  • Direct Searching: Both on and off-market approaches, including using listing platforms, working with agents, exploring FSBO properties, and "driving for dollars" to find potential deals
  • Strategic Networking: Building relationships with a power team including agents, mortgage brokers, lawyers, contractors, and property managers who can bring deals to you
  • Targeted Marketing: Being specific about what you're looking for (like "waterfront cottages" or "student rentals near campus") rather than just saying you want "real estate deals"

21 Mar 2025What Happens If We Cancel The Mortgage Stress Test?00:48:22

OSFI is considering replacing the traditional mortgage stress test with a portfolio-level approach that shifts responsibility from individual borrowers to banks, limiting high loan-to-income mortgages to 15% of quarterly originations.

  • Current stress test requires uninsured borrowers to qualify at either 5.25% or contract rate plus 2%, but OSFI found it didn't prevent accumulation of high loan-to-income mortgages.
  • New 450% loan-to-income cap implemented January 31, 2025, restricts banks to issuing no more than 15% of quarterly mortgages to heavily indebted borrowers.
  • Pre-construction condo market facing crisis with properties being appraised 10-30% below original purchase prices, highlighting need for regulatory oversight.
  • Specific industries facing increased lending restrictions, including steel and aluminum workers, suggesting broader economic concerns affecting mortgage availability.

10 Dec 2024How Rent-to-Own Real Estate Works00:38:18

We explore the concept of rent-to-own real estate in Canada, comparing it to car leasing and explaining how it bridges the gap between renting and owning property. 

  • Rent-to-own offers two main agreement types: a lease option agreement where tenants have the choice to buy, and a lease purchase agreement where they're obligated to buy at the end of the term⁠
  • The typical structure includes an upfront option fee (1-5% of home price), monthly rent payments with a portion going toward the future purchase, and a predetermined purchase price⁠
  • This strategy is particularly beneficial for people who can't qualify for traditional mortgages due to insufficient down payment, low credit scores, or non-traditional income sources⁠
