It turns out, the next “big space” is literally just more space.

The Bank of Canada has promised to stop hiking interest rates. Housing developers are really hoping that’s true.

Real estate developers say new rules aimed at boosting the housing supply may actually have the reverse effect.

Inflation is coming down, and the reason may lie in what’s happening in housing. 

Stealing a house sounds like a difficult task, but recent scams show us it’s actually frighteningly easy.

If you think of Canada’s housing market like a roller coaster, we’re at the part where the cart turns over the top of the drop, and you can’t help but wonder: “Why did I get on this thing?” 

The federal government unveiled the details of a two-year ban on foreign home buyers set to kick in on January 1st (and as last-minute Christmas shoppers, we really get leaving the announcement to the very last minute).

What happened: The regulations will bar non-Canadians (anyone who isn’t a citizen or permanent resident) from purchasing houses in Canada for the next two years, with some exceptions.

Starting in January, profits from sales of houses occupied for less than a year will be 100% taxable as income—barring certain exceptions, like death or work relocation.

The pain of rising interest rates is starting to spread across the housing market, and more people may soon find themselves facing larger monthly mortgage payments.

In 2017, the government launched its National Housing Strategy to create more affordable housing, which includes a sub-plan aimed at cutting chronic homelessness in half by 2028.

Five years in, are the feds any closer to this goal? The short answer: No one knows.
