GROK said this about interest rate cuts… “while lower rates might eventually encourage buying, in the immediate aftermath of rate cuts, especially if they're anticipated, buyers often wait for even lower rates. This waiting game reduces immediate demand, pushing prices down."

Residential rental listings have tripled from 2 years ago.

Listed a house today and the seller was happy and impressed that we do everything ourselves (staging, photos, video, drone etc.) We find it easier this way than relying on and coordinating a bunch of other humans.

Would you buy a house this close to high voltage power lines?

Remember when they used to give million dollar variable rate mortgages for $3,700 a month and everyone thought they were rich?

Has anyone tried withdrawing their funds from a mortgage investment corp recently? The amount of power of sales I see from some of them would concern me if I was an investor.

The “self funded” ESA is desperately trying to avoid layoffs due to slowing construction that they’re now trolling Realtor.ca for keywords to target random homeowners for business. Shameful. Don’t go golfing tomorrow Joe, you will be getting a call.

2 updates to the Home Buying Recipe this week. Making good progress!

How’s the Bitcoin crowd these days… $20k or $100k, what’s the call?

Here's my take on list prices and strategies over the past few years... 2021/22 - List at market value, sell 5-10% above. 2022/23 - List 5-10% below market value, sell at market price. 2023/24 - List 5-10% below market value, sell below market value or no sale.

Social media or anti-social media?

House prices used to be 2.5x the average household income, they're now 9x. Does anyone know what happened? (hint in chart)

How is your region/area holding up after the biggest real estate bubble in history?

Some of my real estate signs have been sitting on lawns for so long they’re starting to crack and fade.

Looks like the 80's were the best decade to buy a house using real money. By 2025-2026 we will be close to 80's pricing again. Your hard earned dollars are worthless. Real money has real purchasing power during inflationary times.

I don’t think another rich globalist puppet pushing for radical change is going to help our housing situation much.

Don’t allow others to normalize current real estate prices. There’s nothing normal about them.

As requested % change from the peak for various areas/regions across Canada. If your area isn't included it's because the local board didn't provide timely or relevant data like the rest.
