    The fact that there is already an excessive amount of demand awaiting its absorption, despite how everyone is frightened and calling the crash, is another reason why it is less likely to occur that way. 2008 saw no one, at least not the broad public, making this forecast, as I'll explain below. The ownership rate was noted to have peaked in 2004 in the other comment. Having previously peaked in the second quarter of 2020, we are currently at the median level. Between 2008 and 2012, it dropped by 3%, and by the second quarter of 2020, it had dropped from 68 to 65.

    The special interest group in Canada, so-called economists and bankers (Multi Millionaires and Billionaires) first worked hard to stop the Bank of Canada from raising the rates and now they are working hard to cut the rates.
    They know for a fact if rate cuts don't come soon enough they will be out forever.
    That's why they are lobbying hard the federal and provincial governments to put pressure on the Bank of Canada to cut the rates.
    Raising the rates was for a simple reason to slow down inflation and asset prices.
    By cutting the rates again, the inflation, asset bubbles plus housing crisis will be back on again.
    The multimillionaires and billionaires (so-called Economists) have missed the point here, The Canadian economy and banking sectors need a huge RESET, and as long as it does not happen, the Inflation crisis and asset bubbles will continue well into the future.
    A $0.20 to $.25 drop in gas prices won't cool the inflation rates.
    House prices in Canada must be DEFLATED by at least 66%, if not, the weak economy will not survive.
    With growing Geopolitical Tensions and Conflict around the world especially in West Asia and growing risks to Global Energy supplies, the risks of Inflation will be on the horizon again.
    Raising and cutting the rates will affect the consumer's confidence and that is the last thing you want to see.
    Rates will continue to be elevated throughout 2024, 2025, and 2026 and possibly beyond.
    Inflation is here to stay for decades if not, for a generation.

Low interest rates also created this so-called investors who are nothing but opportunistic parasites; gamblers who buy and sale false assets (stock, crypto etc.) but don't add any real value to our economy. Low rates are the reason for our housing becoming eventually unaffordable.

    Thanks for keeping us informed. A life-lesson hard earned for me is to pay much more heed to what people do over what they say. BofC Governor can hint all he wants, doesn't mean we should hold our breath for big cuts in 2024. 3 reasons: 1) US debt is fuelling bond yields, rates the Canadian banks must compete against. (2) BofC will not allow the housing market to dictate the economy, and we all know real price correction is the only way to normalize the economy. (3) Without the actual 2% inflation target achieved, BofC has tied its hands and must reach this or will spook the markets; and what are sure signs for you and I, (as history shows) are likely not even data points to them. Clear signs only...
    My attention span won't keep up... let me remind everyone of the 900 ton guerrilla waiting in the wings called US debt ceiling crisis. A divided Congress still has to wrestle this beast, as the problem was merely kicked down the alley last time. It will soon show again and markets won't be happy, yields will climb and rates will follow. Just saying.

    It's a double edged sword, unfortunately. A no win for everyone. Prices are simply unnaffordable right now. And for prices to become affordable, a huge number of Canadians need to be put under financial stress because they have big mortgages on negative equity properties. The bank can only hope that house prices decline slowly over several years so that homeowners can gradually absorb the inevitable hit to their wallets. I doubt the bank is even thinking about inflation. They are more worried about the number of Canadians sitting on the edge of financial ruin thanks to debt financing.

    Of course rate cuts are coming. Nobody knows when.
    The best thing to do really is look at central bank rates globally, and check all the countries in a similar situation to ours... you can see the last rate increase and what the current inflation numbers are, and what the rates are. Our interest rate was not raised to the same degree as US or UK, but current core inflation numbers are similar 3 point something. Which country will be the first to flinch and start rates down? I don't think there is a compelling reason in Canada to reduce rates at all at this point.... at least it wont be material enough to save the mortgage crisis.
    The central banks job is not to save people from their mortgage situations. It has nothing to do with them. It is around employment numbers and inflation. Full stop.

      The answer here is very obvious to the problem. Real estate in markets like Vancouver and Toronto with rates that no investor or owner can pay mortgage costs on. Inflation inputs of rents will ensure this is done, because cost of rent is part of the equation... and how the leveraged landlords come to those due to ridiculous financial commitments on borrowing, is not the problem of the BOC, or Canadian citizens. Let them feel the pain, and hard, like they should.

Meanwhile those people that sold move into the areas that traditionally were small communities and these markets now become unattainable for the locals. How is that not a foreign buyers situation.

    Our dollar is weak. I don't think Bank of Canada is able to reduce interest rates with these bond market conditions. Federal government has borrowed a lot of money, through short-term financing, and all of that needs continual rolling over. Actually, having written these words, I wouldn't be surprised if rates increase from here next summer. Our dollar no longer acts like a petrol-based currency. That was the only thing really saving the Canadian dollar so we are pretty much pooched at this point.

      I know what you mean they need to come down 200-300k at least but I know that sounds crazy to people. what's crazy is 3 years ago a semi-detached was 300+k now it's 500k, any realtor or broker if you told them in 2019 a semi or even townhouse would cost 500-700k would think your totally nuts but here we are. Kingston is slowly coming down but it's not enough, you need make easily 100k, have no debt, and have 100k to throw as a down payment by yourself and that should get you a 500k house but with the taxes and high cost of living you won't be living a great life.

    2023 for the most part was no reaction to higher interest rates on prices as they lagged so let’s give this correction a year and see where we are December 2024. At this point we are only in the third earning of the real estate baseball game. If the new normal for rates get cut its because unemployment has went up which is not good for housing and everything else. The feds won’t cut rates for real estate they will cut it for economy stalling so we all better hope for stable rates.

    It's only the homeowners that are in deep and the related markets that are convinced that rate cuts are around the corner. For the first time they're being reminded that they're not actually all that rich. Unfortunately for them, most of the people in this country, and several generations have been left behind in the dust. That's a bigger problem than people being forced into houses and cities they can actually afford. Sorry, your millionaire lifestyle isn't coming back. Good riddance!

    Yeah it is rocket science. Here are the fundamentals- low supply and we aren’t building. And demand will remain high with a growing population and millennials looking to buy. Rates cuts will happen next year long before big renewals are due. Next year will be 2019 prices so who cares. Bigger loan renewal will be 2025-26 when rates will most likely be 3.5-4. Prices have already flattened and prob be stagnate next year with a slow rise later next year probably. Meaning there is no crash. House prices will be higher in 5 years than today. I have been saying this all along. Buy when you can afford. People who bought at the peak got a high price with a low rate: people today get a slightly lower price with a much higher rate so mortgage is even higher than it would have been a year ago. Prices in a few years will be higher than today with a lower rate. Essentially buy when you’re ready but sooner rather than later. Get in when you can. John talks about the same bullshit every week about houses crashing and he wants it to happen for whatever reason. It’s not happening and it hasn’t happened. If I’m wrong I hold myself accountable unlike John who is a perma bear and will never admit it. But if he doesn’t this whole channel is a scam. Also remember, people coming here just want a better life. I feel down the road we will just have more people renting over owning because prices aren’t dropping to “affordable” levels

    Canada has the LOWEST housing stock in the G7...that won't change...especially with mass immigration..right now home builders aren't building much due to less customers due to high interest rates...once interest drops you then you have a pent up demand AGAIN because now people can afford the mortgage payments...most builders right now are building rentals...and a few custom homes but very few of those.
