If we end all short term rentals like airbnb, do we have an inventory problem? If we build 1M new homes investors will buy them all and we will have the same problem. We need to limit the number of homes someone can own. It is so crazy that we have homeless AND people who own multiple empty units.... Are we even human? Even ants treat their species better.
Limiting number of homes shouldn't be the solution. How about, only Canadian Citizens ( while PRs can be guarantors) can purchase homes, reduce immigration, build more homes on vacant land, remove the carbon tax (makes construction far more expensive), reduce the number of permits/laws required for building, regulate the rent prices (would deter people from buying just to rent), etc. If need be, then we can limit the amount of property per individual (ex 2 or 3, or total properties in value at time of purchase).
@davida6146 Canada needs more Cities. Build the infrastructure and they will come. They should ban tearing down and rebuilding homes, And they should make a new city from scratch in each province, lucrative enough to draw investment towards that.
@willsee8391 this would be the only solution. People will come knowing cheaper prices. Keep lower prices for people who own no properties (per household) and double or tripple the price for people who own a previous property.
The people who overpaid for these rental properties and cannot rent them for their money back absolutely are getting stuck with these properties. Kids and other folks are stuck in their parents houses or their existing rentals because any new properties are overpriced and out of reach for their income levels. Anyone buying up investment properties right now is just really freaking dumb. Like seriously unless you can afford to accept NOTHING in rent you won't find a renter. Nobody wants to sink cash into a building then can't get it out or back.
I think Steve Saretsky is a good guy, but I'm surprised by his take on Airbnb - of all people he should know how extensive it is running. In a place with such an a acute problem, every little bit helps... and Airbnb counts for much more than 'a little bit'.
Makes me laugh every time i see the red herring of Airbnb being blamed. Airbnb is the reality of the new market.

If inventory was the problem, prices wouldn’t have dropped last year when interest rates were lower. This is the activity of speculators. Now that they believe interest rates hikes are over, they are buying in anticipations of rate cuts. The problem was never inventory.
That makes no sense. Even if every single buyer today was a speculator, if the options that those speculators have increased then they wouldn't be all bidding on the same units this.. prices come down. More inventory always equals less prices .. eventually.
@@tidbit5 yeah, inventory isn't low. There is over 3months supply in most markets. Problem is speculating from easy money policy. Many people who already own property are buying 2nd, 3rd and 4th units to rent out. Many of those people are doing it through fraud. This drives up prices of both rental units and housing. Plus airbnbs and so on. If Airbnb was banned, that alone would tank the market as a flood of properties would hit and rental prices would crash forcing speculators to sell as well.
@@paul23238 yeah that's what people say, but I just don't see it. I don't buy that people are speculating right now. It's not easy money when your paying 1m for a condo that fetches less than half the outgoings.
High interest equals less buyer for new home equals less inventory equals higher price. Higher interest related equals higher inflation. Borrowing is a cost. Cost equals higher price, equals higher inflation. Inflation is up, but a high inflation on a toothbrush isn't as bad as a high inflation on housing mortgage. Food is 9% up, mortgage is 30% up. Do you spend as much on mortgage and food? No. Mortgage hurts more
Love the “aLL mY pRoPeRTies cAsH fLoW” 🤡 yea.. after two months let’s have the same conversation after 6 or 9 months. You can pay the mortgage but also need to account for what you’re no longer spending money on. You see when you’re sick you can squeeze your ass for few minutes- even few hours but eventually that 💩 gotta come out.
People in Vancouver has a lot cash , strong foundations. Parent will support the kids to make the payments . You will not see the housing drop as other cities like Toronto or Calgary who has bigger mortgages but mainly support from employment income.
*you know times are tough in Canada when Trudeau's wife is having a hard time qualifying for a mortgage after her separation from Trudeau* 😅🤣😂
They stole enough trust me
This s federal mistake to bring too many people to the country. This is not a vancouver housing issue that is caused by the government.
The amount of money spent on COVID. They need a higher tax base to pay the debt. Plain and simple. It's not rocket science.

Sellers will roll over eventually, buyers can't afford the current prices.
Been watching the same properties since Aug 21, very little price declines, hell some even relisted higher this spring.

Ban airbnb in Canada
The government Not building enough low housing income to help middle or low income people
So you want the government to take money from middle and high income earners to pay for homes for other people.
Nobody pointing out renting out part of your home makes the mortgage interest tax deductible.
1 million x 6 percent.. hmm... How much per month? Just to pay the interest?
This means pretty much all homes on sales were bought.
Homes across Canada 🇨🇦 are being built for the first time ever
