    The next CPI reading will be higher because oil and gas prices have spiked again resulting in higher fuel costs. I just don't see costs going down to a significant enough degree to warrant a pivot. In addition, it's so typical in Canada for people to panic over a house price correction, but remain curiously silent when prices go up astronomically. In 2019, the average Canadian home was priced at $454,776. Now it is $640480 despite the large drop in prices recently. Does that look like a crash to you? Another good indicator is that restaurants are still packed with people, despite the costs going up. If the BOC and Fed end up pivoting, good luck ever getting rid of inflation. This is literally a play by play of what happened in the 1970s. Inflation is in the driver's seat, not the BOC or the Fed.

    Reasons for the new construction crash:
    1) developers haven’t repriced. If they had, people would be buying.
    2) developers use predatory contract language. Even if I bought a pre-construction unit the developer could randomly demand more money a year from now.
    3) the asshole gamblers who bought multiple pre-con units that they have no ability to close on now need to cut their losses.

Now last time I checked, most homes house (considerably) more than 1 person, and most immigrants are not solo individuals. So assuming we had enough housing 20 years ago, building 1 house for every 2 people seems very much sufficient.

    Housing became a financial asset class in the late 1990's. By the 2008 crash this had become the debt crisis to end all, UNTIL 2023. Housing before 2000 was a consumer good. When Wall Street and the Feds decided to securitize mortgage debt it sounded like a great idea to inject liquidity (debt) that was supposed to make owning a home affordable and accessible. GREED took over with massive institutional investment in mortgage debt, in rental housing (including single family), in commercial buildings and commercial debt. And the 2006=2008 bubble inflated and then popped. Well guess what, with a few differences the bubble inflated from 2015 and then in 2020-2022 went insane with artificial interest rates, easy to get loan insurance, HELOC access and GREED to earn fees. Lenders, realtors and governments fed the FOMO frenzy. Homeowners are defenceless. VRBO and AirBNB played a role. I predict a true value crash with mortgage rates as high as 10% for at least 3 years. Prices will never recover - UNTIL the next GREED bubble with a new generation of gullible borrowers getting fleeced slowly at first without knowing it..The Great 2015-2022 Ponzi Scheme is already crumbling.

    You said typical Canadian family as an example “has $500k mortgage”… herein, hidden in your shrouded nonchalance is the issue- until 5 years ago NOBODY on avg had 500k mortgage. Realtors & speculators can push the narrative as loudly as they desire but simple math tells you that avg incomes never justified 500k mortgages. Interest is the price of money, it has been cheapened for over 15yrs- your arguments in favour of nonsensical low rates are self serving- leveraged speculation is my right, as as owning my folly is too. BoC made a huge error in this round- the end result will be greater pain for everyone sadly.

    Here are a few points on why the market will crash next year due to large inventory and negative market sentiment.
    Please prove me wrong….
    1. Market sentiment will be at a all time low in March when the year over year data is -20+%.
    2. Investors forced to sell there property. Most big market investors charge rent less than there Mortage payment, )cash negative month over month). They rely on house values going up 10-30% a year to make up for the monthly losses. Those days are gone.
    3. Record high unemployment. With new construction sales down 96% in the GTA and 1% of the GTA are real estate agents, where are they going to work. We could see double digit unemployment summer 2023.
    4. 40% all all home listing in the GTA took there house of the market. They will be relisting in spring 2023 when the realize that it isn’t going to get any better.

    They are balancing out the impact on the stock market which ends up being almost immediate, and the actually economic impact. I think it was prudent to slow the increases from here. But people need to get it into their heads rates aren't going down anytime soon and prices have not compensated for these very rapid increases. The momentum is downward and on a chart, the real price support is down at 2016-2018 levels. Great video Steve.
    I'm not much of a supporter of gov't getting involved in any sector producing things but I think if they teamed up at arms length with smaller developers they could continue to forge ahead with home production of smaller 5-6 story buildings densifying cities while providing competitive housing solutions..... but it would have to be at arms length supporting the finance side of projects or they would most certainly screw things up. Worse turn each project into forced public housing supply.

      Really, just liberalizing residential zoning laws and making development non-political and predictable would largely solve the problem. The government is already heavily involved in development - stopping development, interfering with development, making development risky and unpredictable. If they would just get out of the way we would be making great progress. But these rules and regulations are actually very popular. Voters don't want their neighborhoods to change.

      @@CountSessine totally agree about addressing all of the things you mentioned. But I’d say, it doesn’t always follow that real estate prices drop because supply increases relative to end user demand. NYC has seen a massive explosion of supply but developers and investors/flippers have kept prices stubbornly high. The govt needs to make smaller developments an attractive option. Collectives, coops building their own smaller developments, homeowners given support to build stacked 4 story semis, wider lots should be green light quickly. So many options to support smaller developers. But these people need the support of govt and banking sectors.

Hyper inflation was caused by massive amount of money printing. Stopping QE earlier would have resulted in less inflation, raising rates earlier would have done the same. I don't what where you say the BoC say that they're going to raise aggressively. I saw last year tiff macklem state that the people of Canada can borrow without worry because they weren't going to raise rates until 2023. Did you not see him say that? And don't think this is out of fear, I have 2 houses but only one is in Canada, and I've got cash to buy up cheap assets when things crash, so I'm not worried about things going up or down, I've positioned myself for both a crash or a rally. My point is factually based, not emotional. I have had clients tell me they think rates will go up to 18% again... this is what people think, people don't understand anything about sovereign debt, the cost to maintain that debt, when that debt will roll over. Those are the ones that expected high rate raises, I've said it before and I'll say it now, it would've been better to be ignorant about economics a year ago.

      @@Observer168 experiencing the ridicule before being proven right after listening to all the MMT zealots say it will be different this time. Seeing the panic to buy homes, stocks, etc.. with virtually free money was striking. Ask the Canadian banks and financial institutions why they preferred insured mortgage clients rather than uninsured high equity straight mortgages? They were hedging their loss to the Canadian government .. aka .. Canadian taxpayer.

      The crypto market is highly profitable with an expert broker just like Mr Ray Dalio I got recommended to him and since then my financial life has been a success.

      I just withdraw my profits a week ago, it was so shocking when I withdrew $32,450 knowing I invested $3,000. I wish I could reinvest but, too much bills 😩

      You did see the BoC only went up 0.5 last week instead of 0.75 bp? They won’t raise it to 10% because we won’t have a country at that point. They’ll print print and print even more.

    New supply going to 0 woooooooooooooooooooo
    That means higher prices down the road as the housing shortage gets even worse and you have more than 10 bidders to the place you want.
